Whenever Rob says something like, “Gosh, you’ve been so good about not spending lately,” I zone out and mentally pack my bags and in a second I’m there, but really I’m not really here—I’m sifting through shopbop in my head. Lately, the image is this one:
[Elizabeth and James snake lapel pin, was $195, now $97.50.]
Ssssss.
I’ve never really wanted a brooch before. I used to take the giant pins off of my Tiffany & Alana skirts (remember those?) and try them on my top half, but always ended up looking a little Granny-fied. But this one is beyond slick.
I imagine (without much imagination) this would look great on a black boyfriend blazer. But what I really long to do is snap it on the breast of a grey chiffon column dress. It’s a little scary without relying on skulls or pentagrams or Obama’s face or anything; sort of medieval, and a little bit Egyptian.

Everything Robert Lee Morris and the Olsen twins created from this brilliant collaboration is genius and I want all of it. And I conjure up that lispy British accent of Sir Hiss in Disney’s Robin Hood and smile. [Remember when he gets drunk in the barrel? Ha ha ha.]
Sir Hiss.
