Anyway, these are my new obsession. I have a real problem when the projected forecast is rain in the morning but clear in the afternoon. Do I wear my hulking rain boots only to lug them around the city with me all afternoon and night?! Or do I suffer, and have wet feet all day? Life is hard. ;) But these are perfect–smaller and less bulky.
Right now, they’re sitting on my shelf because I can’t bear the thought of getting them dirty. I clearly have major problems.
7. This time-lapse video of Manhattan that Mitch took last weekend: The guy loves time lapses. And I’m really glad he loves making them. Because how cool, right?! The wind was crazy when he shot it, but I still think it came out quite well! Check out this one, too. And this one.
9. This song: Oh-em-gee. My students actually had to tell me to stop. I can’t help it. It’s on repeat in my mind. It’s one of those feel-good, I-can-do-anything-like-run-several-miles songs for me. Even though it’s probably about a failed relationship. And even though it’s probably being played constantly on the radio.
10. Gossip Girl: Hahaha. Okay. I need to just admit this to the world, because it’s kind of hilarious that A) I’d never seen a full episode prior to this past month even though I’ve seen it being filmed on the Upper East Side on multiple occasions, and B) I’m now hooked. And, you know, I’m old, and watching a television series about teenagers. And loving it. Fine. Maybe the storyline has a few holes, but I love that the scenes are shot in New York City. My first apartment building was actually in one the early episodes! How cool is that?! (#yesimtwelve, haha.) No spoilers please. I’m only on Season 2!
On to Wednesday!
Aw, what would we do without our moms?!
I NEED a pair of Hunter boots, STAT.
Agreed– having the luxury of working from home would be just fab. I hate rushing my coffee time in the morning. –& you’re right, I’ve never been to NY so being bumped into by tourists while walking through Times Square sounds juuust fab ;D

Because I’m Obsessed
I would love to work from home, that would be a dream come true, once in a while I do it for my current job and I am so much more productive.

Phone calls with mom always are a winner in my book. There is nothing like hearing their encouraging (or sometimes realistic) words! And Mitch and those time lapse videos– I love them! Very well done! By the way- how long did those take??
Oh and Gossip Girl was my life a few years back. After it ended I didn’t want it to be over so I started from the beginning! It’s a great show! Enjoy!
Hi Emily! The first one took about 10 minutes. The second one took about an hour, and he did it at sunrise! Needless to say, I wasn’t involved for that, haha. ;) They’re so cool! He has an eye for it. ;) Have a great end to your week… It’s almost Friday! xoxo
I used to work from home and I ended up hating it. I thought it would be amazing, but after doing it for two months, it became too difficult. Now, my apartment was tiny and I didn’t really have room to spread out work and school and social life, so things got a little chaotic. Haha.

lol I don’t know that I could rock pink loafers, but I love your burgundy ones
I just ordered the fleece lined leggings! I can’t wait to get then.
I loved Gossip Girl until the last few seasons. Blair was my favorite :)

Those vinegar bottles are too adorable! I’ve been living in my fleece leggings as well, they keep me warm during that cold spell!

As for Gossip Girl, I’m 27 and still addicted to the show. Can’t. Get. Enough.
First of all, I was, am, and will always be obsessed with GG (I’ve seen every episode about 5 times). It’s so horrible, yet so addicting. And I completely agree about commuting in the rain. I always loved the rain, and then I started commuting about 40 minutes to school everyday, and I now dread any kind of precipitation. That time-lapse is really amazing; it turned out great! I love the contrast from dark to light clouds!

Fleece lined anything sounds so good to me.
Moms are the best. I don’t know what I’d do without mine.
Rainboots. Why do I not have a pair?
I had to have bird S+P shakers. I get it.
Are you sure you don’t just want to be Michelle Pfeiffer in that whole movie?
I have never heard of these shoes, but a cloud? Sounds worth checking out!
Time lapses are super cool.
I’m wearing a chambray shirt in my blog posts three days this week.
I love the whole album.
Never watched GG, so I can’t weigh in on this.
Hope you had a good wednesday!
Ha I can’t believe you watch Gossip Girl. :) The shorter hunters are a smart idea because the long ones get so heavy! I just listened to the song- I’ve never heard it before :)
