all grown up

Was it really only a few years ago that we all were saying Miss Fanning was "cute"?  (Thanks to jadepurplebrown.blogspot.com for the photos)
Look at her now:

I wore my little brothers suit jacket today--it made quite the cropped jacket.

Sweater: Goodwill
Shirt: Forever 21
Skirt: Goodwill

And I've had a recent obsession with putting home-made appliques  on t-shirts.  I made an owl for my little sister, and I put a Giant flower-looking blob on a t-shirt of mine. 
Maybe I'll put up some pictures later. 
I'm off to have some lunch, practice violin, take a nap....and to possibly sew something.

lazy afternoon

I was lazy today, and just threw on this:
(Although I like the contrast between the boyish jeans & t-shirt, and the pearls and bow.)

My mom & sisters and I went to the Goodwill yesterday--best store in the world!!! I found this
bathing suit, and I LOVE it:

Sorry the pictures are slightly blurry--I've dropped the darn camera so many times, it doesn't 
take good pictures anymore. (I NEED a Nikon!!!)
I can't wait to post pictures of my outfit I planned for tomorrow--It's SO cute if I do say so 
myself.
And, it's question time!! If you have any questions about me--post them as a comment. I
adore any comments you wish to leave. =D

Today's been a weird day.  It started out good, then got a bit confusing and frustrating.  Now it's just........tiring.  
I watched "Much ado about nothing" today.  (Shakespeare's play.)  It's so funny, & 
Senor Benedict is BY FAR my most favorite character.  
I don't have any new or interesting outfits--What I wore today is just about the same as yesterdays post shows. It's still so cold out--The wind is awful, and the snow still so deep,
that there's drift almost 4 feet deep on our driveway.  Ugh.  Why can't winter come and go, with snow, but take away the snow again the next day?
 And watch this short-stop video.  Purty sweet.

Flowery noontide

So first off, here's what I want to sell on Etsy--they were quite fun to make.

I made this one for my Great Grandma:

I LOVE polka dots.

Here's just a few ways I like to wear them:

Here's my outfit for today. (it had to be warm, because it's below 0 outside, plus lots of wind.)
(oh, & I'm forewarning you, there's LOTS of pictures coming up. And I like the golden 
tint to the pictures.)

And this and this are absolutely amazing--ugh--the animation-(not to mention the music--it's 
haunting)!!! I want to see the whole movie.
Dress:Forever 21
Skinny jeans: Goodwill
Sneakers: Sisters closet
And, I'm looking for a pen pal from Europe--anyone up for that? =D I love writing ACTUAL 
letters to send in the mail, and I thought it would be fun to get to know someone from across the sea  thru  letters.

Happy Single Awareness day

So yesterday, while everyone else celebrated valentines day, my sisters & I celebrated single awareness day.  =D  No valentines in my mailbox, and no invitations to be a valentine, except for the invitation from my dear friend Libby, so she was my valentine.  I think 
valentines day is over-rated anywho.  
My mom and sisters and I went to a Symphony yesterday afternoon.  It was Beethovan and an amazing dude on the piano.  And I was brave enough to wear this:
Photobucket
Isn't it wonderful?? My grandma left it for me until she returns again this summer, from CA.
(Don't worry--rabbits reproduce every 3 weeks, so I don't think the world has any less rabbits 
in it after making this coat.) =D
And, my mother gave each of my 4 sisters and I a bouquet of roses yesterday:
Photobucket
I hope ya'll had a good V-day, or maybe a good Single awareness day.
I'll post some pictures of my latest art project tomorrow.....and I may put them up on Etsy.

Thanks for the comments--they've made me SO happy. Could you become a follower too?
That would rock my socks.

room.

[Whimsical]

Whimsical--full of whims, freakish, having odd fancies, capricious.

There's something so whimsical about a circus, or fair.   The colors are captivating, 
the food junky but devine,  & just enjoying simple things like a corn dog, or a ferris wheel ride are what make life better.  
When I lived in CA, we would go to the local Del Mar fair in San Diego.  My favorite part was always the pig races (te-he), the dip'n'dots (yum), and the pony rides.  Although, I've always hated clowns.

Sweater: Hand-me-down
Shorts: Gap
Tights: Target
Boots: A gift to me
Necklace: Random charms put on a chain by me.
