indirect awesomeness

rare device, a brooklyn boutique that featured a few madeye hats last winter/fall, is mentioned in lucky magazine this month. rena, the shop's owner (who seems very nice from my limited interactions with her!) scanned the page and posted it to the rare device blog, but you can also see it here.

i was reading the magazine on my lunch break at work and got so exited that i... well, i made a post-it note that said "she bought some hats from madeye!" and stuck it to the page for whoever picked it up next.

anyway, i think that's pretty exciting, and a nice indirect compliment. i'd never read much of lucky before, except for this issue, but i like a lot of what i saw (if only i was like, a supermillionaire that didn't care about paying hundreds of dollars for sundresses... and if only i could walk in heels, right?) and so if i like lucky and lucky likes rare device and rare device likes madeye... i take that as a good sign.

that reminds me that i took a lot of pictures of the store where i work to share here, but haven't gotten around to uploading them yet. i'll do that soon. it's an amazing little place and i really want to show it off.

also: um, hello, is anyone out there? i feel like i'm blogging to a brick wall. speak, people! speak!
