You know how hotels are known for having bad paintings? And how '90s décor was big on abstract designs and pastels? Well, when I bought this top last winter, it reminded me of a so-bad-it's-good painting that would've hung in a Marriott circa 1995.
It also reminded me of a bedspread I bought in the early 2000s, long after this tacky trend had expired. What can I say? I like what I like, and sometimes what I like looks like it should stay trapped on VHS.
In other news, earlier this week we got a dusting of snow, as evidenced in some of these pictures. Although it was pretty, I was grateful to be working from the command center known as my couch. Back in the day, if I was out when flakes started to fall, I'd be a wreck, white-knuckling it all the way home. And now, just like that, it's no longer a worry. Thanks, pandemic!
And thanks, also, hotel paintings. Especially the one that Jeff Goldblum's self-loathing artist flung into the ocean in Nine Months.
I hope you made some mermaid happy.
