Matchy best friends: I Can't Read the Menu Edition
I decided to leave these guys' faces au natural, because when I tried to conceal their identities, they started to look like Keanu in The Matrix.
See....?
Matchy best friends: Perugia edition
These Match Best Friend Photos are my favorite souveniers
THIS GUYYYYY
kept weaving around in front of me as I was running to get the shot
SEE?? There he is again on the left.
BUT IT WAS WORTH IT.
Note: bags, ho-boots, and the neo-acid wash.
NOTE: THE ONE ON THE LEFT IS WEARING A SCRUNCHIE
For these ladies, I have had to re-open my AcidWatch category, which had become old hat.
FYI, we're all going to be wearing this shit in 2011. Like it or not.
Matchy Best Friends: Pink on the Streets of Florence
Florence turned out to be an epic town for Matchy Best Friends-ness
AMERICA, frak yeah.
Matchy Best Friends: Scandinavians in Florence Edition
Those are teeny bowls of pasta on their faces.
Don't any of my friends love me enough to send me more matchy best friends photos? (please don't answer that)
I love it sooooo much
Note - not JUST the pants but the stance and the shoulder bags too. Blue shirts. Bet they never even realized.

Matchy Best Friends: Italian Edition (Fiumicino Airport)
Some major drama in one act
Matchy pants, Matchy jackets...pity they don't have matchy shoes.
They had high volume and perpetrated much hand waving.

Matchy Best Friends: Workout Edition
I love the stance, the bags side, the flip-flops. I also like that it's not matchy down to the details, but that these girls obvs think alike. That is the essence of Matchy Best Friends. ...although, so is leather.

Matchy Best Friends: The Red Shoes Edition
These elegant pals were wearing the EXACT same shoes on 60th Street near 5th Avenue yesterday. EXACT. I couldn't believe my eyes. Was it an accident? Was it a best-friend-plan? Are they red-shoe-company reps???

Matchy Best Friends: Subway Preppy Edition
At first I thought these two were wearing some sort of uniform for a preppy convention, or a cheerleader competition, or a dance group reality TV show.
...the boots
...the jackets
...the leggings
...the tousled locks
...the crossed legs
BUT then I saw that the linings in their windbreakers was different.
So they really are JUST MATCHY BEST FRIENDS!
wowee.

Matchy Best Friends Yellowstone National Park Edition
It's almost unfair to go shopping for Matchy Best Friends in the national parks.
Matchy outdoor gear is EVERYWHERE

Great Aunt Mary
Some of you know me through my band, The Lascivious Biddies.
If you have been to a show, you have likely heard me talk about my Great Aunt Mary. My song "Wichita" (links to iTunes for a sample) was inspired by a funny conversation we had years ago.
She passed away yesterday...thought you all might like to know.
Here she is walking the walk in downtown Wichita in the 1950's. Great dress/hat combo, right? I am also taken by the little bow, dark skirt accents and white sunglasses on the little princess next to her...
Here's another of Mary and my Grandmother Rosalie, who we also lost recently.
Both ladies were in their late nineties when they passed!
I hope to be as lucky as both of them - to see nearly a century of life...
Furs and red lipstick! You've gotta love it...

Matchy Best Friends and Macarons
Not 45 minutes after I posted the first "Matchy Best Friends" photo, I ended up one myself! A friend needed some computer help, so I stopped in her shop on my way to town...and voila'!
Hee Heeee! Green backed flowers and Birkenstocks! We must be trying to stave off autumn...
To keep to the theme of all that bright color, I popped into The Macaron Cafe yesterday afternoon. I was out tooling around on my bike and running errands all day, so it was no big thing to go visit another girlfriend at her first day on the job. She's new to NYC from Paris, and found the cutest, Frenchiest place to spend her afternoons.
The Macaron Cafe is no bigger than a large closet, but is overflowing with delicious sandwiches, fresh lemonade, fragrant espresso...and a rainbow of Macaron cookies, of course! If you haven't had a French Macaron, it's related to a merengue filled with flavored marzipan. Crispy and delicate, they are suprisingly saturated with flavor. My choice? Honey Lavender.
If you pop in about 6 o'clock you stand a chance of being able to watch the Macarons being made!

New Category! Matchy Best Friends!
There's a song that goes with the "Matchy Best Friends" category. I gotta get it going for you.
My friend Jaime spotted dese guys this summer. Look around you. They are everywhere.
Although the following also falls under "AcidWatch!" I think I need to add another category called "Oh Honey, No." Just for this poor thing.
