We'll always have Sunday to frolic around the city
My favorite past time honestly
I did 5 ish of the things I wanted to accomplish on Sunday.
Everything I wanted to do
Get my Thanksgiving ingredients in check
Run around the cityVisit the new Frank & Eileen store on the Upper East SideWork outThread dried oranges -Start on a paper garland 1
Hang some bows
Go pick up a print
Organize what I’m gifting my family and friends
Rather than tell you about my work out and threading dried oranges, I thought I could tell you about my visit to Frank and Eileen. To be frank2, the first time I heard of them was when I saw their coming soon signage a few months ago while walking by. The photographs displayed brought me to the Irish countryside. I dog-eared it
Fast forward to this past Sunday, I found out it’s a clothing brand that’s been around since 2009 and this Madison Ave store is their only store, making it the flagship.
The space was gorgeous. What I loved most is that you could ease through the store as if you were going to room to room in your home. It felt like I was in someone’s colonial. Warm, timeless and exceptionally decorated. There was a rustic kitchen straight out of a Plain English showroom, memories lined the stairwell and wallpapered walls and the waiting area for the fitting rooms had a fireplace in the center with chairs and couches adjacent.
I took these photos
See what I mean? Feels lived in ❤️
I started on the paper garland and hit a speed bump. The paper is plaid on one side and blank on the other. I didn’t want the blank white to show so I painted it and immediately regretted it when the paper started to curl.
I think that’s a pun? That’s a pun
