Egg & Dart

I went to Egg & Dart in downtown Newport to check out the latest art installations by one of the owners, Chris Wyllie. 

A space that can only be described as "a Pinterest board come to life," Egg & Dart is an art gallery and retail store that could easily be mistaken for a chic place in SoHo. The gallery relocated to America's Cup Avenue by Bowen's Wharf from its original location on Bellevue Avenue, but it has settled nicely near other downtown art galleries, such as Onne van der Wal Photography, Sheldon Fine Art, Isherwood Gallery, and Harbor Fine Art. 

While I was checking out the store, I decided to grab a few things for my friend Cara's upcoming birthday celebration in New York City. Whether you're looking for the perfect gift for your hostess or your best friend, Egg & Dart is the go-to place that fits practical needs for a tasteful lifestyle. 

Egg & Dart is a member of the Newport Gallery Organization, which is dedicated to raising awareness of local art in historic downtown Newport. On the second Thursday of each month, members of the Newport Gallery Organization participate in Gallery Night.  View all participating art galleries on the Newport Gallery Organization website.

Narragansett: Catching Up on the Couch

I have not blogged about daily stuff for the past few days, because I have not done anything terribly interesting. It has just been the usual routine: working out, watching the Olympics and Netflix documentaries, reading Jane Eyre, and checking out other fashion blogs.

On Thursday, I did have a job interview in Newport and will hear back on Monday. Fingers crossed, everything went well! Early evening, we went to Nana's and celebrated her birthday.

Friday I stayed in, trying to finish Jane Eyre.

Yesterday was the massive rain storm that tore through Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. There were tornado and flood warnings--I took a short video of the downpour my mom and I drove in.

And like Friday, today was another lazy day.

I got to Newport early before my job interview so I could take some pictures. 

Nana's cake-- I forget the name of what the type of cake is, but it was like angel food cake and strawberries with light whipped frosting. 

The rainstorm

I love this edition of Jane Eyre illustrated by Ruben Toledo--if only all books could look this fashionable.
