First, thank you to the wonderful and witty writers who have responded to our earlier post this week. We are having great fun pouring over your blogs and writing pieces and will be in touch shortly.
Now, there are few things closer to our mostly mannerly hearts than corduroy. So when we discovered in the WSJ over our morning coffee that today, 11/11/11, is "...the day that most closely resembles corduroy ever," according to Ms.
Pieloch, director of "cordination,"for the Corduroy Appreciation Club, we were delighted. You can read all about it in this article.
As the weather cools our thoughts turn to our dear friends who will and will not be spending Thanksgiving in Paris (you know who you are). This piece by Julie Blakely might come in handy as well as these general tips for personal Frenchification wherever you are.
In other news, we loved our friend Kayce's post last night about her "Aunt Lilly." Yes, that Lilly.
Have you had a chance to peruse the Nov/Dec Lonny Magazine? Pure fun! Plus, we are intrigued by this new lifestyle shop C Wonder that recently opened in Soho and is featured in the magazine. Sadly, it does not yet seem to have an online shopping component.
Finally on this Veteran's Day, thank you to all the men and women who serve, have served and sacrificed so that we may prattle on in safety and peace about corduroy, fashion, beauty and decor ad nauseum. Happy weekend!
