a spot of color on a winters day

We had a lovely trip to Toledo courtesy of my father and sisters. They had even purchased a hotel room for the night so we we spent the morning puttering around the city. I knew there was an H&M there, so I wanted to visit if only to see what all the fuss is about. Well, I'm a convert. It's probably a good thing I don't live nearer one; I can see inordinate portions of my paycheck going in their general direction. I found skinny pants that work for me! Not only that, I bought a pair in the only better than cordoroy: YELLOW cordoroy. They are the awesomeness, I'm sure.



We also found these lovely green votives on clearance at Pottery Barn. They had them for Christmas; I can see the color working quite well in the springtime.



When we arrived home, I was thrilled to discover a package from the lovely katybird. I was thrilled to find a pair of red flats; I've been obsessed with red shoes, and wanting more flats. Perfectness!
