No sale for you

Today I tried to buy three things online. Two wouldn't ship to Canada and one is on back order. I'd go off on a tangent but I won't.

1. Filson zip tote
2. Caswell-Massey Onyx Soap
3. This Smells Like Dirt perfume (I may order a sample of one of these lovelies instead)

Quote of the Week - Francois Fenelon

We can often do more for other men by trying to correct our own faults than by trying to correct theirs.

Tip of the Week - Looking Your Best While Traveling

1. Neatness
2. Appropriateness

You may only be travelling with two or three outfits, but if you choose wrinkle-resistant materials, unpack your clothes when you arrive, keep them clean (carry a spot remover), and press them, you will always appear well dressed—no matter how much the cost of your outfit.

Which fabric travels best?

A few thrift shop finds

Whew - I hope you've recovered from that cold/flu that was going around. No matter how many times I washed my hands it got me (after two weeks of teasing) - it's air born apparently. I made a feeble attempt at thrifting just before it hit - here are some pics from a store located about an hour south of my place. The poodle's name was Spring.

I look forward to getting fashionably back on track!
