WIW: Rainy and Blue

Rainy day... and wearing blue. Yep, a very creative title. This isn't even an outfit worth writing a post for, but here it is. What I wore:

Rain Jacket: Nordstroms; Cardigan: Nordstroms; Shirt: Gap; Jeans: Old Navy; Scarf: knitted by me (pattern here)

Under the jacket is a light cardi and striped tee. Very comfy.

But if you want to be a little warmer, throw on a chunky cowl.

Have a nice night. Keep warm, mmkay?

Racerback

It's getting warmer. I'm thinking about racerback tank tops again. Flowy ones, of course, this time. Like this.

Sorrrry, that's all for now. Don't worry, I'm going to sew some stuff soon. Hopefully. 'Kay, bye.

Inspired

I'm starting to become more inspired again. Sewing thoughts are swirling through my brain... (yes, I do think about sewing before going to sleep; don't judge)

I saw this poncho at Nordstroms the other day. Looks like a slice of pie (or piece of cake. whatever you want to call it).

I want to make this. I love the drape-drape of it.

Big, fat, green grapes. Just because.

Happy (late) Valentine's Day

Don't know why this whole post wasn't posted... but... I'll say it again. Happy late Valentine's Day! I love apple green jollyranchers lollipops. I also like the pink lemonayde ones. Oops, excuse me, lemonade.

Food and Stuff

Craving a pumpkin pie milkshake. Never tried it before but it looks delish. Don't you just love A Beautiful Mess? If you haven't heard of it, you should go take a peek. Cool recipes, tutorials, outfits--everything. Plus, I've always wanted to drink out of a jar.

I remember I once went to this great place in SF for crepes. Strawberry and kiwi crepe: sweet strawberries and kiwis, dollops of sweet whipped cream, and a light (well, maybe not) dusting of powdered sugar. So good. I want one. Another recipe.

Also, I'm looking for small, quick projects I can make with scrap yarn. Any suggestions? (coin purse pattern)

And, a very crummy picture of a non-crummy bowl of strawberries. See ya.

Three Things, plus 2 Others

Haven't shown you this, but I made it back in December when I was obsessed with ear warmers. Mustard bow... I love the color. CO 13 sts with size 10 needles. Original pattern here.

Cherry blossoms--or something like them. They look like it, at least.

3 things from Pinterest (which technically makes it 5 things, but oh well...). For some reason, though, the new Blogger doesn't do the HTML/embedded button things well, so I'll just link here.

Cool dress. I love silver; I think it's prettier than gold.

Ponytail tutorial:

This makes me laugh. I love Harry Potter. And have you seen the Hunger Games trailer? It looks sooo good! I hope it is; the only other time I've gotten this excited about a book/movie is Percy Jackson (which, to me, was a disappointment... maybe I'll do a rant on that someday...) and HP7. Actually, I'm sure I've been excited about other book/movies, but I can't remember any. (via)

Not too much creative stuff goin' on. Relaxing and taking my time... y'know, breaks between homework.

Have a nice day! And if you don't, well... sorry?

Awkward + Awesome

Awkward

So I went into the bathroom to text my mom because I'd forgotten my lunch (shhh!!!), and when I got there I locked myself in a stall. There were a couple people outside. When I came out of the stall, one girl was there. We both kinda stared at each other, and then (this just proves how awkward I can be)...

Me: If you're wondering why I didn't flush, it's because I didn't go.

Girl: ...what?

Me: I didn't want you to think I didn't flush or wash my hands.

Girl: Oh. Okay.

Me: Bye!

I'm serious; that's how it went.

Awesome

-I've learned a practically flawless technique for curling my hair. Too bad not like this...

-If you want to help me buy some supplies, I'd be really grateful... so I've added a donate button to the side bar. :) Plus, then I'll be able to make more tutorials. Thanks!
