Since the holidays are fast-approaching, I thought I’d do a gift guide series. But instead of rounding up items to purchase, I decided to compile lists of relatively easy things to make for the various types of people in your life. Got any requests? Leave me a comment! Whether it’s your best friend, mom, or […]
Sunday Street Style
I keep scrolling down through today’s street style round-up, unable to decide which look is my favorite because I really love them all. I think I need to start accessorizing with a tiny poofy dog and more plaid and cat-print items.

Outfit Post: Beribboned
I came across this skirt in my closet this morning and decided that today’s drop in temperatures warranted something tweedy. It’s got really cool buttons that have big velvet ribbons sticking out through the holes. I have no idea what era it’s from, but I think someone made it by hand and I’ve never seen […]

New Nebula Scarves!
It’s been a little quiet around here this week, first because of my missing internet, but also because I’ve been working hard on a new batch of galaxy/nebula print silk scarves. I’m trying out some new designs, which I think turned out quite lovely. Here is a peak: “Celestial Fireworks” “Bright Star” “Blue Haze” You […]
Sunday Street Style

Outfit Post: Like a Brick
It seems perfectly appropriate for Autumn to match your building’s bricks, doesn’t it? Despite this weekend’s wintry weather, the seasons haven’t officially changed yet, so I’m hanging onto Fall for as long as possible. Dress: H&M Cardigan: Target Everything else: Thrifted Also, Happy Halloween from “A Friendly Ghost” that apparently lives in my building. Spooky!
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 […]
Outfit post: Magical Powers
Now that my hair is long enough, I’ve been trying out new updos, starting with a topknot. I’m also trying out the new necklace I made, which resulted in a girl accusing me of either trying to repel witches, or being a witch. I think I’d rather be a witch, seeing as they’ve got magical […]
