Deuce: A day at the US Open


I love everything about the US Open- the tennis whites, the 7 train ride, R-Fed- but there is nothing I like more than watching a player have a tantrum on the court.  I have played tennis all of my life and nearly everytime I play, I have a nervous breakdown. It's my serve; it's my toss; but usually it's my backhand. Seeing the pros break down and scream, curse at themselves, throw their racquets, hit their shoes, bite on some balls, gives me solace. After all, misery loves company. Especially at the US Open.

Deep Greens and Blues are the Colors I Choose

"Truly to enjoy bodily warmth,some small part of you must be cold, for there is no quality in this world that is not what it is merely by contrast. Nothing exists in itself." - Moby Dick

The Oregon Coast is cold; the beach is dotted with monoliths and the trees are all twisted because of years of abuse. So when the sun does shine there, man oh man can you feel it's warmth.

For other Indian inspired looks, check out this dress and skirt from Neon Maamcita.

Dog Days of Summer


Like most of New York, I fled the dog days of summer (and an earthquake and hurricane), and fled the city. I headed for that little place between mountain and sea called Portland, OR. One gorgeous afternoon, we headed to my cousin's houseboat on the Willamette River. Life can't get more pleasant than that.
