life is one big dot dot dot sometimes

Your girl is a bit, shall we say, discouraged today, and while I can't go into it in a public forum such as this one, just know I'm hurting, and that means I won't be sharing my usual cheer and excitement with you. I just can't muster it, I'm sorry. You know I love you, I tell you all the time, so just use that to carry you through until tomorrow.

This shirt is really cute and available at the buckle for under 30 USD. Perfect for all 4 seasons, especially paired with a black cardigan (winter) or white capris (summer).

Lots of melancholy love, kase

circles being unbroken

Man, it felt good to get that off my chest yesterday! Speaking of chests, today I present something that goes on your chest and speaks to your heart.
I will admit this is not super "easy to find" but it's such a great cause and a really attractive shirt that it's worth going the extra mile.

Basically, a band called "The National" has teamed up with a company in Montreal (je t'adore!) and designed a shirt with proceeds going to benefit Safe Space in NYC. From the site:

Safe Space is a New York based charity, which works with disadvantaged families and children to prevent foster care placement, and allow children the opportunity to grow up and live a safe and healthy life. They do this by working closely with over 20,000 families across NYC, and offering programs and services which serve to strengthen them, and promote self-sufficiency.
I love the shirt and I love the idea behind it. Circles of life, circles of love and circles of giving. We are all connected whether we admit it or not. I am going to purchase this lovely shirt. You can too.
Special thanks to where I found this -- http://kitsunenoir.com/blog/

Love to love you baby, kasey

gypsies, tramps and thieves

Well I didn't think I was going to be able to swing it, but hey, look at that! Anyway, as I am a proud gypsy and never get tired of telling people about my heritage, imagine how delighted I was to find this bohemian gem.

This is a cute little shirt. The print's a little wild, but I can see this with a pair of white capris, or a denim skirt, or even just your favorite jeans. You may not be able to tell the future, but my crystal ball is saying you will look really hot in this shirt.

Grab it at your local Buckle or on buckle.com.

Much Love, Kasey

rar!

WOW. I just found this LeTigre polo at a DEEP discount. I love, love, love shirts like this - functional, durable, and pretty funky. I'm considering buying this one for myself, but want my readers to have first crack, so I promise not to purchase until at least Monday, therefore giving everyone else plenty of time to snatch it up and ensure that when I come back to the site, it will be gone.

With a price like this, there are a few caveats, which are the following:

• DISCONTINUED - NO RETURNS/EXCHANGES
• Heavily discounted item, may have slight imperfections, flaws, fading or discoloration

This gem can be found at your local The Buckle (which every mall seems to have) or www.buckle.com. IT IS PRICED AT $7.01 AS OF THIS MORNING. That's crazy.

If you end up getting one, send me your photo and we'll make a little gallery.
If I end up getting one, I will be sure to post my photo as well. The same goes with any of the items on here - send me your pic with you modeling said item and I will throw it up here for all to see you in your thrifty, anti-snob glory.

As you can see, I really, really love you guys. -kasey
