Snapshot to Style No. 7

I watched this video about Tartine and their bread making process a week or so ago and I can't stop thinking about it, the beautiful techniques and the connection to making something so basic.  I would love to get their book and start making my own straight away.  (Although it's fun to go to bakeries, too!)

Back to Basics: LBD

I'm trying to curate my closet, to have all the basics and a flexible wardrobe that is worth the money spent.  Sometimes it can be tempting to buy whatever is on clearance and lose focus on what can be functional and still aesthetically pleasing.

It's a well-known fact that every girl should have a little black dress.  They are always chic, sexy, and flattering. . . a true staple of any curated closet.

Interior of the Week

Cheery wallpaper, a classic Parsons desk, and a lovely blue and yellow color palette create a cozy space.
