Mr. Moustache Booties.»

My future little people will be wearing these until their toes can no longer fit in the largest size of ‘Pleasantly Plump Knits.’ I’d happily jump-start at being a loyal customer if only they came in my size. But for those of you with babies, what better time to start them stylin’ than Moustache March?

Burt’s & Chocolate Segars.»

βροχή: Greek for “rain”  | On this final February evening, Zeus and the rest of the weather Gods are celebrating. Tonight, the cobblestone is saturated in a layer of slik grease, the piazza lanterns drip cold beads of rain, and Ponte Sisto is deserted. The temperature’s dropped significantly and the frigid air slices down to the bone; Roma’s been friendlier. 

But I love the space, the night, the mist.

My furniture’s rearranged. The couch sits in its cave-sheltered cocoon; a black sea of strength and comfort.  My body’s lost in the braids of knits and tweed. And what better way to keep dry from the rain than with some Burt’s and chocolate segars?

Buona notte, mondo. And a happy, sunny Monday to all. -m e l i s s i m a.

Solamente m e l i s s i m a.»

Solamente m e l i s s i m a.»” marks my very first solo project. I’m usually lucky to have behind-the-scenes help with my mini projects, but last night I took to the ropes on my own. 

I find great pleasure in knit hats, leg warmers, scarves, and oversized sweaters. Bundled and with anything Carson McCullers in hand: I’m golden.
