This is for Gretchen and Leigh who wanted to see my new hydrangea! I just so happened to have snapped a few photos the other day. I think she needs a name… Geraldine! (A name from one of my all-time favorite movies, Some Like It Hot.)

I’ve always considered hydrangeas to be old lady flowers. I don’t know why. Let the record show that I’ve changed my mind. That either means that I was wrong, or I am now an old lady. Our neighborhood is bursting with big fluffy hydrangea blossoms right now! I love how just one bush can produce [...]

Today I discovered this hair coloring tutorial from The Beauty Department. Oh. My. Gosh. I’m always uncertain about dying my hair, but I love this look. The best part is, if I got tired of having a “My Little Pony” mane I could easily cut it off. No harm done! Have you ever dyed your hair [...]

I finally saw “500 Days of Summer” this weekend. How could I not love a movie that opens with a song by my current favorite, Regina Spektor? Zooey Deschanel was perfect (as usual), and her wardrobe in the film was lovely—always vintage inspired and always blue! 1 Frills & Stripes Blouse from Anthropologie 2 Pindot [...]
