Poppin’

When: last Tuesday // Weather: cool // Real life: work

Remember when popped collars were all the rage circa 2005ish? I was a fan of the trend because I was in college at the time, and it allowed me to identify a guy’s douchebag status from afar rather than having to discover it only after talking to him.

I think women can pull off the popped collar without looking douchey (think Carolina Herrera), but clearly this is not a collar that should ever be popped – it’s too pretty. This shirt was one of the many things I purchased in NYC, and I tried on another blue striped shirt at J.Crew that I loved, but the teeny tiny amount of self control I have told me to only buy one striped shirt per store, per day. Buuuut that’s not to say I won’t go back for it. 😉

Kittens and Cute Flats

When: Sunday before last // Weather: 50s // Real life: work (just a little), then Sunday Funday

About a week ago, it was a chilly but sunny Sunday, and we heard our local humane society was having a “baby shower.” You know, like a donations drive but with a cute little theme and games and stuff. So we bought a few things from the registry (including a heating pad, which they use to cuddle kittens who don’t have moms…how effing cute and sad is that???) and dropped them off. In case you think we’re just kind and charitable people, you should know that we mostly wanted an excuse to pet a bunch of cats. Which we most definitely did.

(P.S. If you want to help animals too, look up your city’s shelter! The Indianapolis Humane Society’s wishlist is here.)
