YEEESSSSS. 30 FOLLOWERS.






dress worn as shirt: vintage, skirt: thrifted, tights: wet seal shoes: consignment circuit.

It's still pretty cold, hence the huddled poses.

also, we made a really good shepherd's pie! with lamb, corn, potatoes,sharp irish cheddar, and butternut squash. it was such a good winter's meal.

and, Yaaaaaaaay

(!)


a) I'm almost done with being restricted to only 30 items to choose from....wait, that sounds silly.

b)My follower count is to THIRTY which, in the grand scheme of things is quite pathetic, and my blog probably looks pretty ghost townish....BUT to me this is kind of a big deal. I started my blog, or really posting as a fashion blog, in January, and have had a super hard time getting it off the ground and noticed and whatever, and also had a super hard time finding the time to take photos, edit, and post, when I'm at school until 9 or 10 most days, plus I teach some classes too.

I'm up till 3am most nights now, and it's much more rewarding to know that people are actually reading and responding positively to something I put a ton of time and energy into. Thanks so very very much to those of you who are following and those of you who have left kind and thoughtful comments. I can't even tell you how much I appreciate it.

Thaaaaanks guuuys.

as a reward want a sneak peek of what I'm working on for redesigning my blog? you do?

it's not much, but here's the progress:



The top one is what I hand drew with pen and the bottom is what Ryan helped me do on the computer and illustrator pad thing he has. I'm having a hard time trying to decide whether I want the simple, black and white, or the colour. Now that I've done the colour, I'm kind of leaning toward the original b&w. what do you guys think?

  1. I think your blog is lovely. I'm such a "neutral" minded person, your outfits of color are such a breath of fresh air. Congrats on reaching 30, I'm still trying to build my numbers too since I'm a new blogger since January as well, so I totally feel your excitement :) I was ecstatic when i got 2.
