Five things I am dreaming of this month… 5. What’s that you say?The Wide-Eyed beanie ($34) is for kids?Hmph. I might wear it anyway. 4. The Jam Jar cardigan ($298)is a bit overpriced to me, butthe cashmere is oh-so-soft. 3. Don’t believe the photo above —it doesn’t do the Hybrid Perpetual Necklace ($288)justice. 2. The more I see this outfit,the…
