Lena,
it looks like it was a fun outing...such creative company!
I remember you mentioning Erie Basin before, but I'd not heard of Saipua. Now I'm tempted to try their soaps. I perused Sarah's blog...her arrangements are phenomenal, and she is so funny!
If I get to come out to NYC this fall, I'll have to try to stop by both stores...It's so hard, NYC- always so much to do & so little time.

i love the knocked over water bowl in the shot with the dogs. that is something pee wee does and then lays in the dirty water.

Lena,

I love the jewelry you and your friend are wearing? Where are the necklaces from? Erie Basin?

Lena said...

hi lauren,
some are... are you looking at a specific photo in particular?

craftysunday said...

i feel i have to ask, too- i am loving that sweater (the white/cream elbow length one). where did (insert whoever is wearing it) get it?
cheers,
m

Lena said...

i asked, and the sweater is from Mint. i'd like one too!

craftysunday said...

Lena,

I realized that the half moon necklace is mociun, or at least I think so. However, I'm interested in the other two necklaces: the one with the double rings and the chain matched with it. Also, that tribal-esque rope necklace in the cafe photo? They're all so amazing. Especially the pairing.

Thanks,
Lauren

Lena said...

yup, the half moon is mociun, and so is the brightly colored rope necklace. the chain with the small dog heads on either side (you can't really tell in the photo that they're dog heads) was from erie basin, and the other is alyson's chain with 2 rings.

they're all lovely, aren't they!?

What a perfect day--I love these photos!
When I got to the ones of the jewelry display, I thought "OH! that must be Erie Basin!"....even though I've never been there. Clearly, they've got a well-branded thing going on there. :) And the new Saipua looks fab!
