Rabidfox



The problem with spending to much time on Etsy is stumbling across to many amazing objects. The Rabidfox line is definitely one of those hidden treasures with the most amazing rings! "Rabidfox was spawned from the love of the animal kingdom and all small things endeared; taking a playful spoof off of mass produced items then transformed into precious metal, wearable objects and friends." Each one is handmade and the double knuckle rings are especially interesting.

Morningside Organic Farmer's Market

Today I went to the Morningside Organic Farmer's Market and got cherry tomatoes, carrots, beets, sunflowers, arugula, and string beans! It is all so tasty (especially the tomatoes). These photos didn't turn out exactly as I would have hoped but I still like them. I've been getting a lot of hits on Etsy and will post more tomorrow. More dresses, blazers, and vest to come!

Etsy Shop has Opened!



The shop has opened, please check it out! I only have a few items up but more will come daily!

Jeffrey Campbell's New Lookbook!






Jeffrey Campbell's new lookbook is awe inspiring. I love the collage of this years new shoe collection with lots and lots of wedges (and some vair vair cute clogs *eyes*).  Whether it is revamped vintage or recreated runway, Campbell's line is always cutting edge. If your interested in purchasing any of these lovely shoes (and some artisan chocolates?) head over to Baltimore's Ma Petite Shoe. As stated on their website, "Ma Petite Shoe is a one-of-a-kind boutique specializing in the world's most fabulous shoes from some of the newest designers including Irregular Choice, Miz Mooz, Jeffrey Campbell and J-41 and artisan chocolate from around the globe." Sounds like heaven to me, to Baltimore I go!

DIY Floral Dress






I found this lovely fabric at Gail K and instead of paying bank at UO made myself a floral summer dress! It was very fun and I used a simple dress pattern that I got on sale for $1 at Hancocks. More DIY projects to come!

Music Mondays: Why Don't You Love Me?


"Why Don't You Love Me" - Beyoncé from Beyoncé on Vimeo.




































In Beyonce's newest song "Why Don't You Love Me?" she turns to the vintage 60s homemaker to make a fantastic new music video. Drawing inspiration from Bettie Page and a 1960s house wife the outfits in this video are devilishly cute. The high-waisted bathing suits/lingerie have put me in the mood to try and find one for myself, if I had 89.99 these from Modcloth would be perfect!

Crafty Feature Fridays!


I recently stumble across how to make your own Tiny Terrarium in a Lightbulb as featured on The Hipster Home. I ran on over to Home Depot today and made some! Basically you fill in the lightbulb with such things as dried moss, sand, and Tillandsia and tada! They are so cute and will go great in my room which I am currently redoing to more closely resemble my favorite restaurant Rise n Dine in the village. The full tutorial is available here, enjoy!

Stop Motion





I have always loved A Fine Frenzy but this music video makes me respect it even more. It was written and directed by Angela Kohler who also did the adds for Kendal also using stop motion.
