Piercing Please
Q. Is there a piercing parlor in the city or surrounding area you'd recommend, or a place where I can find a stud like yours?
A. Unfortunately I don't know of any great places in Westchester - the one I went to in Tarrytown was eh; all they had were basic silver hoops with little balls on them. I do know of a tattoo parlor in the city, Addiction NYC, that does excellent work - my mom, Kendrick and I all have tattoos from there - so presumably they're good with piercings as well?
One Anorak, Three Ways
I'm going to have to add one more item to my list of easy (and affordable) updates for your autumn wardrobe: an olive-green anorak. It's such an easy piece to toss over leather leggings and jeans...but my favorite way to wear it is with a gauzy floral mini (yes, in the fall; this is how you do it) and clogs.
(OK...the "dress" I'm wearing in that center shot is actually a "blouse" - I picked it up back when I was eight months pregnant to wear with jeans - but tomayto tomahto.)
Some suggestions pour vous at a wide range of prices (my favorites have a zip-out lining so you can wear them all the way through until full-on winter and a furry hood).
Halloween Costume Alternatives For The Terminally Lazy
Every.
Single.
Year.
Seriously: every single year, on the day of Halloween, I think, "Huh. It would be really fun to actually get dressed up."
