The one piece in my closet I absolutely can't live without is...
"My Bass Tanner Saddle Boots in cognac/maroon. They compliment my tomboyish and vintage style perfectly. They're also so rare that I've never actually seen somebody else wearing them--the tell-tale sign of an ultimate find."

Current obsession...
"Knee-high socks. Chia seeds. Jon Stewart's giggle. There's just too much."

The one song I can listen to over and over and over to is...
"'Everybody's Talkin'' by Harry Nilsson. It's an old folk rock tune sung by one of my favorite artists. There is just something nostalgic, soothing, and classically American about the sound. It always makes me feel like I'm embarking on some great journey."

The latest trick I've picked up from the other R29 editors is...
"Even one more hour of sleep can completely turn your day around! Kelly's insightful article about the influence of sleep on our genes, stress levels, and immunity made me rethink those super late weeknights."
