Little Lessons on a Tuesday
by Kate Franco on April 12, 2011 · 8 comments

- I only like coconut water if it has another kind of juice added in. I think it tastes kind of dirt-y. As in, like dirt.
- I got chocolate on my white duvet cover last week. Eating bon-bons while blogging…brutal combo.
- Karl Lagerfeld says, “Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost control of your life so you bought some sweatpants.” I say, Karl, sometimes sweatpants are just the most comforting thing around. I’m not wearing them outside for heaven’s sake. {well, except that one time I went to Mitchell’s Ice Cream wearing sweats and rain boots. Yeah…}
- 2 + 3=4: Bon-bons in bed and sweatpants. Looks like someone needs to get a life!
- Still looking for a lipstick that looks like this one.
- I’m loving the old school and ladylike knee length silhouettes that are everywhere right now.
- I don’t usually blow dry my hair. If it doesn’t have time to air dry, I show up places with wet hair. A little unrefined, no?
- I bought a really fancy sewing machine in December & I still haven’t learned how to use it.
- Been working on being more gracious; definitely went out of my way to give a guy directions on public transit the other day and he ended up being a total creep. Ugh.
- The state of my inbox is appalling. In tandem, I find it funny that people tweet so much about how behind they are on email and wonder if it’s a sign I’m not networking as much as I should; I mostly just have issues with junk mail as a result of liking to shop too much.
- I ♥ Meryl. Image source unknown. If you know where it’s from, let me know!

i love this photo of meryl and i agree with you about the dirt taste of solo-coco h2o.
um, what is wrong with photobucket these days???
I always enjoy reading your little lessons! I am loving that photo of Meryl. What a babe! 🙂
aw, thanks heather!
I think coconut water tastes like the melted popsicle in the bottom of the wrapper. Weird I know.
I might be alone on this one, but bon-bons and sweats sounds like a wonderful life to me. Not alone of course, but wonderful when combined with other things…
Kate, you might try MAC’s Girl About Town lipstick if you’re looking for that color. I think it might be a bit “bluer” than the picture, but it’s a wonderful bright pink and one of my faves. Regardless, MAC has a bunch of other amazing bright pink lipsticks, so you’re almost bound to find one that’s a dupe!
Not a MAC spokesperson…just a fan. 😉
thanks for the tip!
I love Meryl too. She’s phenominal. And I died laughing when I googled a pic of Molly Ringwald and put it next to those photos. You are so right. The funny thing is that I actually do have naturally curly hair (I’m currently trying to grow it into a short bob with my mess of curls. shhh…), but it’s too short to go curly right now. Thanks for the laugh!
