10 Things We're Doing Besides Finding Our Warm-Weather Wearables
Because summer shouldn’t be all about whites and jewel tones, we started designing the latest PC by Of a Kind collection with a pretty perfect color palette in mind: army green and pale blue.

Puttin’ on a lip to go see War Paint on Broadway—about the decades-long rivalry between Elizabeth Arden and Helena Rubinstein (and the biz-lady B.S. they both endured).
Craving some sort of rich-but-summery dinner and getting exactly what I wanted from this zucchini carbonara recipe.
Streamlining the process of finding whether a username is available on alllllll the platforms (MySpace included) with this handy thing.
Re-falling in love with papercut art c/o these.
Talking about nothing while eating lunch at Little Pepper in College Point, Queens, aside from how unreasonably good the string beans, the cumin lamb, the mapo tofu, the scallion fried rice, the everything tastes.

Buying a home (!!!), a process which involved a lot of bros I hope to never interact with again, with the strong exception of our real-estate broker, Grant, who I liked way, way more than I ever thought I could like a broker. (Sorry, brokers.)
Ridding myself of my Ziploc bag habit (and the waste-related guilt that attends it) with the help of these remarkably useful things.
Hearing from a friend with a little one that my longtime go-to cotton tee doubles as an A+ breast-feeding uniform. (I hear the same about this, too, by the way—a slightly more office-appropriate option.)
Trying to remember the last time I got excited about a new-to-me personal blog the way I have with Messy Nessy.
Wondering how long until this sponge-like thing that does duty as a lint- and hair-catcher, duster, and god knows what else becomes the next viral home product. Obsessed with it for those shiny white countertops that are dust traps.
