[ N.Y. Adorned Tradition ]

{ rucksack love }

Ever since I went to NYC this summer, I've been

looking for a fashionable way to carry a lot of 

junk in a purse/bag without taking my hiking

L.L. Bean backpack (bright red) with me everywhere.

This very fashionable lady on the subway had

a leather backpack / rucksack that I loved.

It was Fendi, however, and probably cost

her more than my car is worth. 

But, I found something! This is so cute!

P.S. I love the little studs.  

OK.   I am going to have to start saving 

my pennies for this Roxy bag.  

[ nyc: a love story ]

This past summer I took two trips to NYC.

The first was for an interview / day in the city.

The second was for a week-long freelance job

at Showtime Networks. Yeah, I'm bragging.

Get over it.

The first time I was all hot (it was like, 1000 degrees outside)

and nervous for my interview. I felt very out of place and 

oh-hey-check-out-what-got-brought-in-on-the-cattle-truck

and country bumpkinny... not to mention very underdressed.

And then, I got a week-long stint as a freelancer ...

yeah, I'm still bragging. I know, get over yourself, right?

Nope. I'm good ... still basking, glowing ...
 Oh, hi. Back to the point. 


So, then I went back, and that's where the love 
story begins. This small (and I do mean small)
girl from Maine became infatuated with a loud,
hurried, stinky, and psychotic city. 
And I mean that as a compliment. If you gave me
a job there right NOW I'd say "OK" and throw clothes,
my Mac, and the September issue of Vogue in a bag.
 And some hair gel ... I have some serious curly 
poodle hair that can scare the hair off a cat in 
the AM. Point being, I'd go.
