Bags! As seen on University Place and in Kimmel, respectively.
I especially love the green and purple together. Wonderful.



This one, however, I'm not as much feeling.
Kudos for color and all, but...


Love,
Bertha

Hats



Spotted: Upstein



Spotted: Kimmel



Spotted: Silver

A spectrum of knit winter caps! The new personality test.
Are you monochromatic, black and gray, or rainbow?

Love,
Bertha

I don't have much to say about these,
save that they're pretty.
Despite the pervading scaffolding and cement,
there's a lot of color in the city when the sun comes out.

Love,
Bertha

Home(sick)

It's a new year and a new semester. We've left our respective hometowns and returned to the big city, an occasion that deserves an honorary post at the very least. Cheers to new and old homes!

Exceptional





This gorgeous display of bedroom footware is, probably, the summit of mankind's achievment, and definately deserves its own post.


Good Ideas





A couple of really good ideas.
The first: a combination of two long scarves to form A SINGLE FABULOUS SUBPERSCARF!!
The second: layering shredded tights to produce A SINGLE PAIR OF SUPERTIGHTS!!

The triumphant rejuvenation of the mansweater is probably old news, but we're still happy about it. Finally, common ground for your grandfather and your boyfriend!

School Days



This outfit was inspired by a Japanese schoolgirl, I think, but I'm not sure I would like it as much or even post it here without the tiger backpack, which I feel makes it more fun and less ironic, also, although the pictures didn't quite turn out, the unicorn earrings.




Love Bertha
