Beautifully Odd

Now this looks like a good wedding.  

Take a look at the photo below this paragraph. See anything missing? Like maybe on the far left side of my ring finger? Sigh. (This isn't actually a huge deal; diamonds that size tend to cost relatively little to replace so long as you're not a stickler for quality, which I'm not. And besides, Kendrick has weird radar for locating tiny, sparkling things like earring backs and wayward stones, so it'll probably turn up somewhere.)

Sartorial Joy, Ahoy

Nordstrom's annual anniversary sale best picks

Sick and tired of summer clothing yet? (Me neither.)

I'm about to make you feel way better about the approach of fall: Nordstrom's most massivest (yes that's a word) sale of the year has arrived, and it is even better than I thought it'd be (and I thought it'd be pretty freaking great).

Because I know you have better things to do than sit in front of a computer this weekend, I went ahead and did the deal-hunting for you. I culled through the entire sale (and trust me, there was a LOT of stuff to cull through) in search of the very best pieces at the very best prices...which means that now all you have to do is pick which boots or wrap coat or jeans you want to be the centerpiece of your fall wardrobe.

I Gave My Daughter My Last Name, And This Is Why

The women in my family are great deniers of their own worth. They are whip-smart, loving but self-denigrating, victims of the circumstances of women generally for their respective times. My maternal grandmother was a college student when she got pregnant with my mother, and dropped out to raise a family. My father’s mother lived to serve others until the day she died, making virtuous practice of self-denial.

A couple of months ago, I headed into the desert to shoot some images to accompany Sabine's new release cowritten by Darian Zahedi, and I can finally share the song with you. Click through to check out 'Deep Blue Dream' on Soundcloud (where you can also download it from iTunes or listen to other songs by The Sabine), and see an exclusive first look at the cover image for the single.
