"I was late to meet someone but I stopped at Lexington Avenue and bought a peach and stood on the corner eating it and knew that I had come out out of the West and reached the mirage. I could taste the peach and feel the soft air blowing from a subway grating on my legs and I could smell lilac and garbage and expensive perfume and I knew that it would cost something sooner or later—because I did not belong there, did not come from there—but when you are twenty-two or twenty-three, you figure that later you will have a high emotional balance, and be able to pay whatever it costs." --Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem

internet favorites for november: jewelry wishlist

Internet Favorites, a monthly series, continues its trek into the wilderness.

I can't really afford any of this but I love it all so much.

1. Bijoux Brodés
Designed by 2 friends from France.

2. Verameat
All kinds of morbid and delicate things, that universally cost too much. After we visited their Williamsburg store, I swore to Eve that I would squander the entirety of my hypothetical first book advance on their lovely adornments.

3. Old Gold Boutique. Alas the web store seems to have gone out of business. But, like Verameat, they used to carry things that looked like they belonged in a cabinet of curiosities.
