DISQUS

For File

sleep. nars blush, bare minerals make-up. cookbooks with beautiful photography. growlers of handcrafted beers, buying boxes of wines at Trader Joe's. fashion mags/trashy gossip columns. well-made/tailored clothing. cashmere socks. good chocolate for baking. nourishing whole foods and taking the time to prepare it with love. time with my mom. indian buffet feasts - chutneys, pickles, tamarind, fresh breads, sweet lassis, levels of spice - oh yes.

I too love The Sartorialist because of its simplicity and human-ness (if that's a word). I usually leave other clothing sites feeling like I have to buy something that I can't afford (ahem ahem lagarconne.com) but sartorialist is more about appreciation and cultivating real personal style. Other daily checks:

101cookbooks.com - Heidi Swanson is my latest cooking muse, whole vegetarian foods, beautiful photos, easy. I want to be her...seriously.

angrychicken.typepad.com - Amy Karol site, author of Bend the Rules Sewing, approachable crafts, recipes, and other DIY goodies.

I always think Thandie Newton and Diane Kruger look amazing - feminine and classic without looking too preppy or too coordinated. Charlize T. too. Reese is a little too predictable for me. What about Erykah Badu for global ethic style?
