greetings from a dining room table in icy cold brooklyn! it’s finally feeling like winter here – the temperature has literally dropped 30 degrees in the past few days, and it’s almost a relief to bundle up in a winter coat and gloves (although this haircut is leaving much to be desired warmth-wise.) i’ve had a pretty serious lack of outfit posts lately (and posts in general, but i digress) – it’s not on accident; my hair hasn’t been cut or colored since i first chopped it and blonded it back. . . …

Lou is a premium French lingerie brand established in France in 1946, over 60 years ago.
