From the monthly archives: January 2012
My baby sister’s birthday was last week, so my brother cooked her dinner and I baked her a cake. As she requested, I made her a black-bottom cake, and then went in search of a suitable ice cream flavor to go with it. I really only crave ice cream when it’s pretty hot outside, but [...]
With an old unused frame, a little spray paint, a few tools, and some help from Mother Nature, I made myself a jewelry rack last week. I can’t take credit for the idea, since it was mostly inspired by this one that I found on Pinterest.

It may be super gray and misty around here, but all that rain means that it’s excessively green even in the middle of winter. Maybe it’s good that I don’t have much green in my wardrobe–I’d blend right in.
(The dress is from H&M a couple of years ago, and everything else [...]
Lately it’s been nothing but gray and rainy around here, which clearly means I should be wearing bright colors to make up for the monochrome environmental palette. Taking my cue from these ladies definitely couldn’t hurt.

Lately I’ve been trying to figure out how to organize my jewelry and accessories. Right now everything is packed away in various boxes, and I’d like to find a semi-temporary solution so I can access everything again. This is tough, because I have quite a collection (mostly vintage, thrifted, or handmade), but if I can’t [...]
Since I’m late with this one and it’s been awhile since I’ve done Sunday Street Style, I decided an extra-large helping of stylish street fashion was in order.

Nothing seems to sap my blogging mojo like moving, but I’m trying to get back into the habit by tackling some projects I’ve been meaning to try. Most of my craft supplies are in storage indefinitely, so I decided to make a tabletop terrarium because I had everything on hand except for the container, which [...]
Since I’ve been moving/sick/taking a break from the internet, I’ve missed a lot of great stuff lately. I’ve been trying to catch up a bit, though, and here are some of my favorite projects and links I’ve come across so far in 2012.
Super cute (and easy!) shoe fringe [...]
Today I was determined to take some outfit pictures even though my tripod is (I think) packed away in a pod that hasn’t yet reached this side of the country, and there was no one around to be my photographer. My method involved propped my camera up on a garden bench, which didn’t actually work [...]
Happy New Year! Normally I don’t make any resolutions on January 1, but this year I decided to set some loose goals for myself just so they would be on my mind.
1. Spend more time with friends and family
This will be a lot easier since we moved back to the [...]
