I just ordered 2 more striped shirts from Forever 21 and this is one of them. I just can’t not buy a striped shirt thats only $8.90 The Deets: Shirt: Forever 21 Jeans:…

Venturing Outside

By Rachel Golberg | February 21, 2012

Reason #56 why I love Gilt. My boots came yesterday. I wish everybody shipped as fast as Gilt. I had to think quickly and find a place to go so I could wear these boots immediately. So I decided to go to the Container Store for my closet organizing project. (stay tuned for that later…

Last Minute Date

By Rachel Golberg | February 13, 2012

So some of you know that Husband was called out 10 days early. Not happy. Allegedly, he’ll get an extra week off when he gets back. I’ll believe it when I see it. When we got the news that he was leaving early, we decided to go on a nice date. This is what I…

28 is the new…. well…. nothing. There is nothing new about being 28.

Yesterday was my birthday. 30 is waaaayyy too close for comfort. Its like when a big stinky guy sits next to you on the subway. You just close your eyes and hope it goes away. Even though you know damn well its gonna stick around and haunt you. “Don’t you need to see my ID?…

Knitty City

By Rachel Golberg | December 5, 2011

Now that Husband is back at work, I have been taking my outfit pics inside. Haven’t quite worked up the courage to set up my tripod on the corner and pose in front of hundreds of people. Still trying to navigate this new point and shoot. Please excuse the lighting slash graininess. I’ll figure…

She also had some…
