6th Avenue is all about oversized Christmas ornaments this season. These lights kind of remind me of gigantic lipsticks. Happy Girly Holiday!
I’m waiting for some friends to come over for glögg and celebrate Lucia (if you don’t know what that is I will tell you tomorrow).
A few weeks ago, you could still wear just a poncho here in NYC and not be cold. Not so much anymore.
I love everything about this poncho (bought on sale at H&M like 13 years ago), but my absolute favorite part is the puffy pompom details.
Now that it’s colder, I’ll sometimes wear it over jackets, that’s what I originally bought it for. I think I thought it was just a big scarf. It lingered at the bottom of a cardboard box in my parents’ basement for years before I unearthed and resurrected it 3-4 years ago. I love moments like that, finding old treasures that once again become new favorites…

Two weeks ago, I took my out-of-town guests to a football game at the New Meadowlands Stadium.
Of course, there was plenty of beer to go around.
Everyone except us had Giants gear on, some seasonally themed.
It was a gorgeous sunny day.
The Giants won 24-20.
We took the train from, and back to, NYC (the stadium is actually in New Jersey), which was super easy. If you’re not sure where to go, just follow the crowd wearing red, white and blue (which is basically everyone).
I had never been to a football game in New York before, and it just so happens that I’m going to another one today — Jets vs Dolphins. It’s rainy and miserable outside. But I’m hopping in my rain gear and hoping for the best. Go Jets!
Let’s make this a really good weekend.
Even though it may be snowing outside, we all have sunshine in our minds. Stay warm!

You would never know at first glance, but these ties are made from old cassette tapes. The material, by Sonic Fabric, is just gorgeous — such a pretty sheen.
Not only does it look cool, it’s audible too! That’s right, the sounds contained in the weave can be revealed by drawing a tape head over its surface.
And that’s your Friday Find! Available at Equita.
