Foodspotting: Still Dreaming of Octopus

4:50 AM / BY Harriet Ayoade
Spanish Rock Octopus Foodie fit, La Fia in Wilmington, DE is a farm to table bakery and bistro and chef Bryan Sikora's latest venture.  If the chef sounds familiar, he should. He's the mastermind behind Django (Queens Village) and Talula's Table (Kennett Square). Django was an award-winning restaurant that ruled the Philadelphia Foodie scene during the Sikora years, also had one of my favorite dishes of all time. Talula's Table's accolades included being regarded as "The...

3 Supercool Recent Album Releases

11:40 AM / BY Harriet Ayoade
AM - Arctic Monkeys Showcasing a lighter softer side of the English band, AM is the fifth studio album by the Arctic Monkeys. Addictive, melodic, and more impressive with every listen, AM is a sleek and triumphant achievement. I am always sad when "Knee Socks" plays and even sadder when "I Wanna Be Yours" ends, because both are the last two songs on the album.  Signaling the end of my musical nirvana. Turn Blue - The...

How to Stand Out (in style) at a 4th of July Barbecue

5:30 AM / BY Harriet Ayoade
I’m still undecided on whether or not to be cliché tomorrow- red shorts, striped navy and white cami, and navy blue summer sweater with subdued sparkly accent buttons.   If by chance Billy Idol’s Rebel Yell comes on during my commute home, I might wear this instead.  Hey, the sleeves have stripes, the skirt - has an element that reminds you of fireworks, and the brooch, sparkles like the stars J   Fashion Notes: White vintage...

Flirty Fun with Anthropologie

6:16 AM / BY Harriet Ayoade
Fun and flattering, with a tad bit of flirty, I'm wearing one of my favorite Anthropologie dresses. Anthro's Midday dress (sorry, no longer available except via eBay) is a causal effortless glamorous throwback piece.  The diagonal juxtaposition of its trendy stripes are flattering on most body types. Accented with a black flower brooch, also from Anthropologie (also no longer available) and a black med sized belt, this dress can be dressed up with pumps and jewelry or dressed down. DSW Thong...
