Do you remember when Lar wrote about Year Round Layers not too long ago? She made the point that it doesn’t really get warm enough in Edinburgh to not wear layers. The same can’t be said for Atlanta. It gets so hot here that you don’t feel like moving. So while Lar is still shivering […]
Ray Ban sunnies • old Express pleather jacket • organic cotton H&M tank • old Citizens of Humanity skirt • old Mango booties • AsianCajun name necklace • Japanese mag canvas Zucca bag freebie If you love layers, you should move to Scotland. Not only do you get to pile on the layers in the […]
Oh goodness, what a week. While Lar has been keeping AsianCajuns afloat, I’ve been spending most of my waking hours in a car – or at least it’s felt like that. Troy and I had to drive up to Vandalia, OH unexpectedly last week for his grandmother’s funeral. It was an intense couple of […]
So I really do think this past weekend might have been our last hurrah at summer. We had sun, we had heat (80s, right?) and I turned on our air conditioning on Saturday. I decided to embrace this last gasp of Southern summer with sleeveless layering. (Outer to inner layer) Heliotrope earrings, Forever21 vest and […]
See that t-shirt I’m wearing? And those shoes? And that bomber? Alllll new! And I blame my shopping on the seasons. Namely, spring and summer. Who would have thought seasons could be so complicated?! I mean, I grew up in D.C. and we had four solid seasons. 8 years in Atlanta – there were also […]
Shirt H&M (old) | Leggings Marks & Spencer | Shoes Ferragamo I don’t usually do outift posts anymore. Cath still inspires me with her style posts, but I honestly seem to wear about the same five basic outfits . mainly centred around stretchy trousers. There are a few reasons for my sartorial shrinkage. Around the […]
This past weekend Matt and I took a short train ride east to North Berwick, a lovely little Scottish seaside town. Edinburgh is right on the sea too, but we don’t have a beach and I miss the susurration of waves lapping the sand. But you can’t be picky when you’re in Scotland. Going […]
Necklace Novica | top H&M | leggings M&S | boots Cos | bag Fjallraven So you know how last week Cath was complaining about how hot it was in Atlanta? Well, I was super jelly. I mean, even though I vaguely remember those swelteringly humid days that made it hard for your lungs to work, I can’t […]
My summer festival outfit (note my hair flattened by sweat): Milly for Kohl’s tank | Rkitekt necklace | secondhand Coach bag | Marc by Marc sunglasses It’s not technically summer yet, but it already feels like it in Atlanta. I hate the summer. I know. It’s a strong statement, so let me rephrase: I hate […]
Amsterdam totally surpassed all my expectations. I’m completely in love with the glimmering, shimmering canals and curlicued brick and stone, the deliciously gooey caramel waffles and an entire museum district! It’s a shame that I always associated it the red light district and pot (not that there’s anything wrong with the latter), but it just never seemed […]
