The Events Of September 11

Besides the event that comes to everyone's mind, September 11th also marks the day of my birth in Leeds, England. Other noteworthy events on this day (and precursors to my favorite things) are:

9-11-1609 Henry Hudson discovers Manhattan island (shopping)
9-11-1853 First electric telegraph in use (blogging)
9-11-1875 First newspaper cartoon strip (Family Guy)

This year, I asked for something to help keep me warm during air conditioned days of summer and the frosty days of winter. Con selected two pure cashmere wraps in regal purple and burnt sienna, and a cashmere-silk wrap in jet black. All three luxurious yet practical, and absolutely perfect with jeans and a turtleneck for Saturday errands, with a suit to combat the icy office air, or over a LBD for cocktails and dinner. Well done, Con!
