Home for the Holidays

Our slight respite in blogging can all be blamed on coming home for Christmas and cramming in as many family and friends get-togethers as possible into a short period of time. After six hectic days of shopping, eating and catching up with friends in Maryland I finally have the chance to sit down and post a few photos.

We spent a day shopping in D.C. Notice how I didn't say we went Christmas shopping; instead the day was spent more selfishly - buying clothes for ourselves. A trip to the H&M on F and 10th St. is always on the itinerary when we come home since cheap, trendy Swedish-wear isn't available in Atlanta - at least not until this spring.

Lauren made plans to meet up with some friends on Capitol Hill for lunch after a successful morning of H&M shopping:
One of my purchases - a paisley extra-large scarf. Note the tag dangling from the end as evidence of it being recently purchased:
A poetic truck parked outside the shops. The owner sells scarves and hats from a nearby sidewalk stall - no good Kate Spade knock-offs unfortunately:

Me smiling because Lauren has told me we're going to get lunch :
