It is a day to celebrate. Friends at Taylor Stitch announced the launch of their new women’s line that will be released July 17th. Pinch your pennies till then and plan on picking up several of them because I am confident there will be a winning selection.

Be prepared to get lost in the goodness of it all for an hour or so.
Today is the day we celebrate our father’s. Although those of us who are lucky to be blessed with really wonderful father’s, probably find ourselves celebrating every day. I am eternally grateful for the support, love, and protection y father, John Mitchell, has given me every day of my life. Happy Father’s Day DAD!
For more father’s day, check out Max Wastler’s “dadisms” over on All Plaidout (a few from Rev. John Mitchell in there). Also last year’s “Things my father taught me” on All Plaidout.

If you’re in the NYC area this evening, be sure to head over to Clic Bookstore & Gallery to see photographer and friend Mikael Kennedy’s polaroid exhibit Between Dog & Wolf. According to the Mikael, “At the time that I shot these pictures I was starting to feel that border between domestic and wild and I started to look for it in my friends.” Opening reception is this evening from 6-8pm. The exhibit will be up till July 7th, so if you miss tonight make an effort to check it out before it goes down. I’ll definitely be making a day trip to NYC soon to be able to catch it.

I’m in love with this tote from Jack Spade. Not only is it available in one of my favorite colors (blaze orange), but it’s lightweight and stows away into a small zippered pouch. When in use, the pouch doubles as an interior pocket. The carry handles and shoulder strap give you carry options not common with stowaway bags. This fun little video explains it all.
