Novus Adores May 25

Inspired by Friday Favorites at Iowa Girl Eats, the NOVUS ADORES posts 

will chronicle things I'm currently diggin' on - food, fashion, books, music, etc. 

SHORTLY

Check out THIS LIST of favorite short stories as selected by the employees of Powell's Books.

KISS THE GIRL

I've always worn neutral or coral lipstick. Last night I attended a Mary Kay party 

and was encouraged to try "Red." (No fancy name, just "Red.") 

Who knew such a bold color would be my awesomeness?

ISN'T THIS INGRID?

Human Again - Ingrid Michelson (2012)

This album is so fantastic. 

REST AND RELAX

"The bowl of bread dough, the cheese, the bottle of wine teach us 

that so much magic happens when we stop and rest."

BBQ FASHION

Wouldn't this be a lovely outfit for a Memorial Day picnic? Classy + casual.
