Let's Go to the Hop!
If I had a prom to go to, this dress would be my first pick. It's cheerful and swishes around with a small, built in petticoat. I feel ready for a sock hop! I have an endless amount of dresses, but this is one I'll be saving for a special occasion. It's prominantly displayed in my apartment and makes the prettiest decoration. For today's post, I paired it with my dreamy ice cream purse and a new Ronnie Spector broach, which was a gift from Jason.

Lesley Gore, Teenage Voice of Heartbreak, Dies at 68
Leslie Gore was one of the girl group greats and a strong feminist. I feel so lucky to have seen her in 2011 and will always cherish that memory. My go-to karaoke song has always been "You Don't Own Me" and I'm sure it'll stay that way. As my favorite singers get older, it breaks my heart to see them go.

I was super saddened to hear about the death of Parks and Recreation writer Harris Wittels. A friend of mine recommended I listen to this podcast he did, which was pretty great.
This is a great recap that emphasizes the touching importance of this show.
I also really enjoyed this article about the idealism the show leaves behind.

Happy (Super Duper Belated) Valentine's Day
I had a doggie emergency that day so Valentine's Day was put on hold. Since then, we've celebrated by switching food duties for a night. I made the main course, lasanga, and Jason made a giant no-bake peanut butter cup (yum!). We also went to dinner at Hotel Chantelle, which has some super delicious appetizers fyi. I comissioned this amazing illustration by Morgane Carlier, who came highly recommended by a variety of bloggers. It came out so amazing!
