Indulgence




Just a peak into my little world


This morning I had leftover Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake and english breakfast tea with extra milk.

Tonight I am going to an Alice in Wonderland party!

Bunnies and Betsey Johnson












Bunny Print dress- Erin Fetherston for Target
(I'm also wearing a white vintage crinoline underneath the dress that gave it a bit of oomph...although it's hard to tell here..)
Glitter Polly Heels- Betsey Johnson
Faux Leather Jacket- Charlotte Russe
Bow- handmade

*The last photo is Natalie on stage wearing all Betsey Johnson, including the sweater tights I bought her for her birthday!


On Saturday I went to a Betsey Johnson fashion show, which my darling Natalie was modeling in! The event was for Harlow Salon's one year anniversary and they did all of the hair and makeup for the show. I fell in love with Natalie's hair and made an appointment with the woman who did hers. I'm getting it done tomorrow night and am feeling a bit fidgety with my hair as of late. Don't be surprised if I post in a few days with an entirely different color and cut of hair! Although it may be too difficult to abandon my fluffy bleached (read: damaged) curls. We shall see....

"I'm fickle as a paper doll"












Last week I finally made up my mind about the pieces I want to create for Spring, and I decided to center them all on this paper doll print fabric. It was one of the fabrics I brought back from my Mother's stockpile in New Hampshire, and is from the early 90s. I put a lime green tulle underneath these, but I think a blue would look lovely underneath as well.

The last photo is of the one of the best cakes I've ever had. My friend Natalie took a fondant class and this is her first masterpiece! I also thought it was inspiring to photograph as it kind of ties into the colors I'm using this spring!

I've had a rough week or so, you know the kind where everything just sort of goes wrong, and you feel like a bit of a failure? Yes. It's no fun at all.. So, here's to a better rest of the week, please!

Fairies & More Tulle




Today I made some more Tulle Bow Bands with this lovely dotted netting my mom found at Textile Fabrics on Franklin Road. I may be headed back there soon to get more. The polka dots are soft and fuzzy.

My favorite part of my bedroom are my fairy lights. Well, they are just round bulb strand lights, but I like to think of them as fairy lights. They give the room the perfect soft lighting for sitting in bed and pondering the future and....the existence of fairies?
