TIME TESTED STYLE

Time tested style: Nothing feels as fresh to me as bold black and white stripes. This spring I can't wait to pair black and white with bursts of color in kelly green, yellow and fuschia.

Stripey Straws...

Having people over in the summer is one of my favorite things to do. I can't wait to mix drinks with these adorable paper straws from Anthropologie. Bring on summer!

P.S. If you're in New York City, one of my favorite West Village stores, Greenwich Letterpress sells similar straws in gray and light blue.
