Good shopping karma

1. Found some awesome patterned hose in my size and big gold-tone button earrings at Macy's on my lunch hour. I usually loathe malls and department stores, but for certain things, they can be useful. With these and items already in my closet, I think I can put together something stylish for the tweed ride on Sunday.

2. StoneMountain and Daughter had black shantung silk for $12/yard. I was able to get trim for Raj's jinbaori as well. It's a little slubby, but has a nice, tight weave and I should be able to paint his mon in gold on it.
