sweetface & laura merkin

*
earlier this week i checked out the sweetface sample sale. there were good deals to be had with jennifer lopez's contemporary line sweetface, seeing that the line was cancelled earlier this year. i picked up this emerald silk dress.

the detailing is all in the back, with ruffled straps and an asymmetrical ruffle down the back of the dress.


today i was post-call and after lunch in koreatown, i headed to the lauren merkin sample sale after hearing that there was a great collection of discounted clutches up for grabs. true to word. i got this one.

lauren merkin tatum patent croc amethyst clutch.

i also stopped by the frank tell sample sale (which only had 10 pieces for sale, i kid you not) and the cynthia rowley sale. the cynthia rowley dresses were greatly discounted, all pretty much under $100, but i didn't see anything that i liked.


now for food thoughts....


momofuku milk bar review:
cornflake chocolate chip marshmallow cookie. surprisingly, a fan.
compost cookie. not a fan.
banana cake (banana cream, hazelnut crunch, gianduja fudge). huge fan.
crack pie (toasted oat crust, gooey butter filling). not good at all.


being a huge french fry fan, it's surprising that i haven't tried this place yet. i pass by it everytime i'm in the east village since it's so close to my cousin's place. 25 different dipping sauces?! and poutine?!! yes.

i may have to have french fries for dinner one night next week.
