over all & lip gloss

I am so glad to get my camera back! I am a little rusty though. Setting things up and what not. Either way, I am so happy to get back to regular posts.

 

Also as mentioned on my "5 things I love right now" I am all about the overalls. It's a trend that is becoming really big for fall. Reminds me of the 90s, back to school, and chilly nights.

around the waist

Good News! (Well for me at least) My friend found my camera at their house. It must of fell out of my bag while I was there. This means I can start posting style posts more. This makes me happy! (I don't know if this makes you happy, but I hope it does since you read my blog at least.)

 

With the time being here post.

The flannel is a staple for Seattle fashion. Lately I've notice people are literally typing it in their clothes by doing the good old fashion tie around the waist. Classic.

5 things I am in love with... right now

5. Kelly Osbourne (a.k.a. Fashion Police)

Maybe it's because I am watching Fashion Police but I love Kelly! She just gets it. She's so well spoken, smart, has great style, and over all seems like a truly down to earth person. Kelly has been in the limelight and I feel like she handles fame really well. (Also Fashion Police is just a great show.)

4. Fall

September, October and November our my months. Everyone who knows me, knows I love this time of year. I thrive and get so much more done.

3. DIYs

I got a bunch up my shelves. Just need to find the time. While you wait here's a great one on my favorite blogs "I Spy DIY"

2. Overalls

It's a new trend that you either love or hate. Being a kid of the 90s I love it. Plus every designer takes their own spin on a classic.

1. Bernie!

 

My sister's new puppy. I've been dog sitting him and well he's just amazing.   

pop up shop!

Over the weekend I was able to check out a really unique and fun pop up shop that was put together by a bunch of people in Seattle. My friend Paulina put me on and I was able to shop her closet as well as a bunch of other extremely well dressed individuals.

I went with J. mean and the boyfriend. We all left very happen, slightly me more than them because I went in! I mean most of the people selling their stuff are people who's style I've admire from a far, so yes, I was geeky out slightly.

The talented photographer and homie Avi caught all the best action over on his blog. But these are just a few snaps I was able to get.

I hope they are able to do it again or something like it! Got some great items that I know I'll be posting soon. Here's a little example from UrbanExchange's instagram:

we are going out

Ok. For the time being, I am going to make this camera thing work out as best as I can. We will see. So please, bare with me. Thanks!

Headed out to go hang out in the town; my friend's little brother is DJing so going to check that out.

 

I am wearing heels.

DIY: "wearing a square"

Still no constant daily style posts because I am trying to figure out a new camera situation. For the time being though you deserve a good old fashion DIY.

So, I was at Nordstrom a while back and saw this sweater for $38 bucks! Really? I mean, really?! I was not going to pay 38 dollars for that. 

Not to mention I wasn't a big fan of the cuts in the back so why not make my own, my own way.

On top of that; yesterday my mother and I went the Seattle Art Museum to check out the "Future Beauty: 30 Years of Japanese Fashion"exhibition where I got a lot of great inspiration ideas! I highly recommend it for everyone and anyone. I couldn't take pictures but I was able to take notes. 

A lot of best Japanese fashion is all about shapes and dimensions. My favorite thought was the idea of "wearing a square." Don't know what I mean? Well, I believe this DIY is an ideal example of that.

And all you need is a sweater (mine: goodwill for $5.00) and a pair of scissors. 

Fold the sweater in half, arm to arm, and then cut two or three inch slits equal distances apart.

Cut on the seam of the arm but not around the neck.

  

Like so.

Ideal for fall. Fashion that breaths. 

  

It's just that easy. I love how space age it looks; something straight out of Star Trek. Enjoy!
