Concern yourself with the aesthetic of linguistics. That’s right, I’m endorsing the much-sneered upon view that sometimes writing on something beautiful helps you write better. Think of it this way: inspiration often derives from beauty. That doesn’t have to mean buying overpriced moleskins. Muji has a series of notebooks that are beautifully designed, and only a couple dollars a pop. This particular model has a dot grid, which allows both structure and freedom.

If you have ever worn, or even touched cashmere, you know that it has it all: warmth, lightness, and softness. It is highly functional, incredibly comfortable, and classy as hell. What you may not know is that you don’t have to spend hundreds or thousands of collars to wear it. Uniqlo offers a line of pure cashmere sweaters in various colors for 99$, and a cashmere cotton blend for 29.99. 

To seduce is from the Latin ‘ducere’ “to lead” and the reflexive pronoun ‘se.’To seduce it to lead oneself away from oneself. 

“The natural style of things”

This Boulder native decided she wanted a style makeover; nothing fancy, just discarding some old clothes and buying a few sets of affordable items that fit her better, and make getting dressed every day easy and enjoyable. She feels much more confident in her wardrobe now, without having lost any of the comfort. Go to rebeccashepard.com to read her testimonial, and to get a style consultation for yourself!

Commonly referred to PIE root *tem- "to cut" (see tome), on notion of "place reserved or cut out" [Watkins], or to root *temp- "to stretch" [Klein, de Vaan], on notion of "cleared (measured) space in front of an altar" (see tenet and temple (n.2)), the notion being perhaps the "stretched" string that marks off the ground. Compare Greek temenos "sacred area around a temple," literally "place cut off," from stem of temnein "to cut." Figurative sense of "any place regarded as occupied by divine presence" was in Old English. Applied to Jewish synagogues from 1590s.
