Bourbon Necklace | Mascara or Motoroil

one last day

Hello dear readers, I promise you that I haven’t run off to join the circus (although I’m often tempted) I’ve just been crafting hard and enjoying my first week off! Maya, Dana and I are scrambling to get ready for the Crafty Supermarket, and we have lots and lots of stuff to make. I’ve been trying to make some stuff I’ve never tried before. I hate to be so cryptic, but I want it all to be a surprise for people who are coming to the show. I will post pictures after though!

As I’m sure you’ve noticed by now, my amazing boyfriend redesigned the site! I love all the custom buttons he made for me – I have the best boy ever.

However, without any further ado here’s the outfit I wore for my last day of work! What a fantastic last week too, my boss was out of town so I pretty much did whatever I wanted.

Yay! I'm jobless!!!

I got the coolest new watch!

It even does little animations!

WHAT: jockey hat, h&m

bourbon necklace, diy by me

jacket/vest, h&m

black t, rainbow

japanese watch, chicken lays an egg

engineer pants, forever 21

flats, target

WHERE: one last day of work at the library

WHEN: saturday, march 27

winter adventure

Since I got so many awesome skirts in Nashville, it hasn’t been too hard for me to put together some pretty decent combos. However, I realize that I’ve been building outfits around one piece a little too completely, such as this outfit. It’s the lazy thing that I am tempted to do constantly. Don’t get me wrong, I really like the simplicity of it in a way, but I want to branch out more and challenge myself.

The bummer about this outfit was that the t-shirt I chose kept stretching out more and more, so by the end of the day my sleeves were down past the end of my hands! (Hence the hands in pockets pose.)

WHAT: silver bourbon necklace, made by me!

dark green t, thrift

anchor belt, chicken lays an egg

plaid skirt (altered by me), lion’s thrift (nashville)

gray tights, tj maxx

red boots, thrift

WHERE: work and playing in the slightly warm weather

WHEN: tuesday, march 2

breakfast for dinner!

Apparently I’m really into looking down today. Almost as much as I’m feelin’ these glasses. I wore glasses from 4th grade on, but I lost mine almost 6 years ago and just never got another pair. Contacts enabled me to wear sunglasses for the first time, so I was really diggin’ that for a long time. But Orchid Grey has a really great way of rocking vintage frames, and she’s been inspiring me in that veil lately. Lucky for me, we have a wide variety of awesome frames at the store!
