Love This Store: STORY

Hello lovelies,

So I came up with a fun idea for a segment on the blog when I was in New York last week. I want to add blog posts about fun, local stores to the blog and introduce them to you.

I was wandering around New York City (in my opinion, the best way to discover this city) and I stumbled upon this cute store called STORY. So I went in, not too sure what to expect. As soon as I entered the store, I saw that they literally have a little bit of everything: books, clothes, a bike on the wall (yes, you read that right. A bike. On the wall.), phone gadgets, ...

This store changes like a gallery. And another part of this store is that it gives this magazine-like vibe. So that means it can look completely different the second time you visit the store. They change everything from design to the product they sell. Cool, right? Every 4 to 8 weeks, they sell products that are related to one theme.  This can go from "Good" to "Making Things" to "Love" and so much more.

Some STORY wisdom for y'all: eat chocolate, lose weight

 I love the idea of having one particular theme every few weeks and to change it up according to that theme. It's so refreshing finding stores like this who think outside of the box to find new and revolutionary ways to offer products to people.

You can find more information on their website: http://thisisstory.com/ and find pictures that are prettier and more artistic than the pictures from my phone :-) If you're in New York, go check out the store at:

144 10th Ave. at 19th St. New York, New York 10011

So nice, they named it twice

Please let me know in the comments below if you like this new segment! Thank you for reading!

Love,

Molly

"Q&A a Day Journal"

A friend recently introduced me to the “Q&A a Day Journal” by Potter Style. It caught my eye because of the lovely design and gold pages.

I was immediately in love and the next day I found myself ordering it online! I really like the idea behind it – this journal shows us what’s in our head, each day, for a period of 5 years. 

 
You get a daily question. When you finish the journal, you have to start over… This will show you how your answers change/stay the same over the years.

I’ve tried to keep journals before, but sometimes I just didn’t know what to write about; That’s why I love the questions in this book! They bring up deep thought without even realizing it. Also, you only have to write a few sentences, so it doesn’t take too much time. This way I feel like giving up less likely. Such an important attribute, because eventually you’ll have to keep it up for 5 years!! :-)

Price:  $16,99
