Lately it’s hard not to notice that ’90s fashion has been undergoing a bit of a revival. This has been especially notable for me, given that my husband and roommates are creating a video game set in the ’90s. We do things like read Sassy and watch My So-Called Life for reference, and naturally the […]
Outfit Post: Trendsetting?
Sometimes I see a new trend and immediately like it, but often I’ll see one that I don’t initially like but which eventually grows on me. Sometimes it’s hard to predict which ones I’ll end up liking, but I’ve been thinking that peplum tops are not one I’ll ever be a fan of. And then […]
Outfit Post: Denim + Leopard
People tell me that I look totally different when I straighten my hair, and I’m inclined to agree with them. Recently I went to the post office with straight hair and saw a neighbor I’d talked to for about 10 minutes the day before. I said hello, but he didn’t seem to recognize me. One […]
Outfit Post: Interrupting Cat
I was trying to take photos of what I wore today, when I got photobombed. Little Miss Adventurous decided that she wanted to be in the photos, too. (Although she didn’t want to be held, clearly.) Blouse & cardigan: Secondhand (Buffalo Exchange or Crossroads) Pants: Target Shoes: Vintage Coach, thrifted We got Adventurous from a […]
Outfit Post: Stolen
It’s a time-honored tradition for girls to steal t-shirts from their significant others, though it rarely goes the other way. My husband’s t-shirts are, for the most part, too big and boxy for me to wear. This one, though, is super soft and drapey, and I think I wear it almost as much as he […]
Outfit Post: Bad Kitty
Recently I’ve come to appreciate the bad-hair-day-hiding capabilities of hats. The top of my hair could be all frizzy and messy, with roots that need some work, but you’d never know thanks to my hat. I knit it a couple of years ago using this pattern, and I’m working on another, this time from this […]
Sunday Street Style
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. Row one: Fashionistable, WDUGT Street Row two:The Sartorialist, Street Fashion Style Row three: Stockholm Streetstyle, WDUGT Street Row four: It’s My Darlin’, The Sartorialist Row five: Street […]
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 […]
The owls are not what they seem
Even though they surely exist year-round, owls are one of those things that are associated with Halloween. So perhaps wearing this owl skirt now is inappropriate, but I’m not ready to move on to Christmas-themed dressing quite yet (or, actually, ever). Owl skirt: Thrifted Jacket: TJ Maxx Shoes: Urban Outitters Bag: Made by me Everything […]
