Lighten up! Just because it’s cold and dreary outside it doesn’t mean you have to resort to a black uniform. As these ladies prove, winter white can be chic, too.

Mine are prettier than the ones pictured because they’re not lumpy on top, but I just made a bunch of these dark chocolate peanut butter cups. I made them partly because I wanted to use these little Halloween baking cups I had, and partly because chocolate and peanut butter is one of the best flavor […]
DIY Foldover Leather Clutch Purse
If you want a foldover leather clutch, you could buy a designer oneĀ for a pretty penny. Or you could easily make your own. Mine is made with leather from a mini-skirt I bought at one of my favorite San Francisco thrift stores for $1. It was perfect for this restyling project. Combing the skirt and […]
Inspired by Tweed
This morning I was inspired by the lovely photos of New York City’s Tweed Run by From Me to You. If you haven’t already, go look at the rest of them. They’re gorgeous, and they made me want to put on some tweed and go out on the town. Instead I dug up some more […]
Sunday Street Style

Love this handpainted mug, complete with instructions to make your own. I’m currently drinking the spicy ginger […]
DIY Tiny Terrarium Necklace
This necklace has been in the back of my mind for a long time now, but when I was going through my craft supplies to find the crystals for the crystal boutonniere tutorial I came across these tiny glass bottles. Sometimes I think I’m a craft supply hoarder, but the fact that I was able […]
Dress Transformation
Several months before I got married I posted pictures of the $1 flea market dress I was planning to restyle and wear. After I started working on it I actually changed my design several times when I got partway through and realized I didn’t like the direction it was going. Sometimes it’s hard to tell […]
