My newest favorite color is all different shades of olive green, due to a favorite sweater bought at j.crew last Fall. So the graphics on this bag, by The Body Shop, definitely caught my eye!

However, the color orange is my back-up accent color and I couldn't resist this shoulder bag by Lacoste! L., who was wearing this bag owns a Jeanine Payer "Lars" bracelet with the quote "I dwell in possibility". - Emily Dickinson
I found out that L. works in the fitness dept of Self magazine so of course I had to ask her some questions about exercises that I can do at home. A girlfriend swears by Billy Blanks "Tae-bo" tapes and suggested I try it. L. also recommended I buy a set of weights to use at home.

What a super fun bag! I love the pink handles peeking out. They actually matched the pink "skin" on her iPhone which I didn't see until after I had taken the photograph!

Bundled up beautifully against a wintry cold day.

This large crystal layered in gold wire, designed by the late Kazuko Oshima, looked exquisite below a Temple St. Clair cherub pendant and other small charms.
*
A silk flower accents the ponytail of a woman who works at a restaurant nearby. She forgot that she still had it on when I asked if I could take a photo of it...
*
Out of everything this woman was wearing I find it interesting how my eye & brain focused on the contrast of her curly red hair against the delicate jumble of pearls and stones of her earring.
*
This coat was deliciously beautiful. The texture of the fur was so smooth and the color reminded me of a lipstick I used to wear. I love how the sleeves of her dress peeked out from the sleeves of her coat. Pink is another one of my favorite colors and seeing it combined with the thin red stripes in her scarf was pure delight.

Sisters from Chicago, were in New York to buy dresses for their brother's wedding, and were looking at the Jeanine Payer jewelry for the first time. While they stood reading the Jeanine Payer "book/catalog" I took photos of their attire.

Cobalt blue and a deep berry purple seem to be the hottest colors in clothing or at least in winter coats and scarfs!
*
The hat in the middle, bought at the J.J. Hat Center by a young guy, inspired me to take a photo of it and the additional accessories worn by his friend.

1st: Elda's hat was too fun not to take a photo.
She agreed and said that when she bought this hat
she had to buy a 2nd one in a different color.
2nd: I spotted her fly earrings...
3rd: her rings were so pretty, and they are her own design!
4th and lastly, I couldn't help myself but capture her bag too.

Love, love, LOVE this knit hat with an embroidered fish on the top and matched with a bright orange scarf by Virginia Johnson!

Just loved all the different patterns on Ms. Black who wore them with confidence.
Friday morning began with the subtle flowers of a Cathy Kidston bag, hanging from the arm of Clare, dressed in all various textures of winter white. Our conversation moved from her bag which she has had for years, to her love of Anthropologie (two stores to open in London), books and the look of books, and her opportunity to experience the world as a cabin crew member (flight attendant). Lucky duck!
During the quiet hours at Cursive, I like to walk around the shop and try and see our merchandise from the customer's point of view. On Saturday, I sold one of our display cases, which held our silver and black porcelain fruit. I had to disperse them into various other enclosed cases which gave me a chance to re-arrange some things...
one of my favorite still lifes
a fun combo of colors and patterns
oxidized sterling silver earrings with emeralds
sterling silver snail cufflinks designed by a local NJ artist
All of our 2009 agendas and wall calendars by Sesame Letterpress and Herman Yu are on sale, so come on in and snap them up, while they are hot!
There was a mis-print in the description and retail price

Ah, the joys of short hair. I've been seeing some fabulous short hairstyles on a few of my customers and I miss mine.
Catherine, a mutual friend of Peggy Lo of Figments in Providence, RI, came in today to say hello and pick up a few goodies.
Octopus necklace by _______. I have to find the postcard that Catherine gave to me.
A type of hydrangea.
I had never seen this flower, Chinchirichi or Star of Bethlehem in a potted plant form until a customer came in with it. She had bought it from Whole Foods last Saturday.
Love this patterned coat with the shoulder bag. The tatoo needle & thread just speaks for itself...
Customers playing out the jingle bells tune on their cell phone into Michael's ear.
I spotted this Orla Kiely bag on this customer and it turned out that I had already photographed this bag about 6 months ago... Funny how that happens...
