I Feel Old
I wore these Dolce & Gabbana shoes today. I’m sure I got them over five years ago. I wore them with a black James Perse dress from 2002 and a white leather Jill Stuart jacket from the ’90s. I found this movie ticket stub from 2000 in the jacket pocket. Typically, I’m out of sync…

Boudicca Jacket
Somewhere, there is a gorgeous blogger who likes Boudicca. Sadly, I can’t remember who she is, even though I did remember that I said I’d take a picture of my Boudicca jacket for her — last year. Here it is at last, mystery person! Maybe next year I’ll take a better photo, because I’m not…
