I have been wearing this skirt nonstop lately. I got it at the swap awhile back, was it yours? Well anyways, I've been wearing it a lot. This particular outfit I wore to a happy hour to celebrate with the newly-wed Maggie, and later on Erin stopped by too! I had tons of fun, as usual, and I got to try Bell's Double Cream Stout, which I really liked. Yummmm, winter beers! I love this time of year, if only for the beers, the Holidays and hibernating at home with my hubby. I am not looking forward to snow...

dress/tunic worn as top: H&M
skirt: from the swap!
tights: random
socks: husband's

I cant even begin to tell you about all of the things we made with the last of our summer CSA share. SO MUCH. But I have to say, the last few weeks (in October!) were my favorite boxes. In them, we got squashes, potatoes, chard, onions, garlic, pumpkins and spinach. YUMMMMM. Here are a select few of my favorite meals that we made with them.

Well, I've officially made it through another Art Sale! I am still exhausted the morning after, and my feet may still be throbbing (three full days on concrete floor isnt the most forgiving), but I am so happy to be waking up this lovely Sunday morning to snow on the ground, my husband making coffee and waffles (!) in the kitchen, and this most ADORABLE video on the interwebs. I think I just died of cuteness. It's going to be an awesome day!!

Just a quick update this morning. Last weekend, I was lucky enough to be asked to model some vintage goods for two birds boutique, owned and operated by my new friends Megan and Nora! It was super fun, and they even let me pick out some things to take home (which I will sharing on the blog VERY soon I am sure)! Well, their very first shop update is complete and here is a little preview! Go ahead and check out the rest of the shop here, and mark your calendars for their next pop-up sale (for you locals) scheduled for December 2nd and 3rd. It will be a holidays themed occasion, complete with wine and good cheer!




Thanks again ladies! Karaoke soon?

These past few weeks have been flying by, people. I have a lot of work to do at MCAD, but will hopefully be back up to regular posting speed after next week (the huge, gigantic, awesome MCAD ART SALE! Go and you may see me running around like a mad woman!). Before I forget, here are some great Instax photos my best buddy Ben took at our Halloween party a few weekends ago! I am in love with them (why dont I just carry an Instax with me wherever I go?)! I ended up just dressing as a Gophers Baton twirler, since I found this costume at the thrift store for like 5 bucks! Alex went as Steve Jobs. Thanks Ben, great idea!

Man, I feel like all I have been doing lately is going to the eye doctor, the ear nose and throat doctor, the other doctor and having all kinds of tests! Yes, it's that time of year folks, the end of the calendar year (time to get all of your doctor, dentist and isurance information taken care of, yay!). And I have been looking for a new pair of prescription sunglasses to order before then. I want to get one of these from BonLook, what do you guys think? Help a girl out!







I'm leaning towards something rounder, since both of my current regular glasses are pretty angular. What do you think?

Jahna Peloquin did a little fashion round-up over at Le Petit Connaisseur de la Mode this morning, featuring me! I am super excited and flattered to be included in the list with other such fashionable ladies! Nice round-up Jahna, very inspiring.

Been thinking about overhauling the professional website recently. I mean for real, not just tweaks, and not keeping the same imagery as always. I gotta CHANGE IT ALL people. In looking for inspiration, I found quite a few websites to be inspired by on Cargo Collective, an invite-only platform that "offers its members free standing personal websites with their own URL, a wide variety of templates, and simple but sophisticated tools to control the way their content is displayed. A personal network of their own creation allows members to follow and comment on the work of others, making themselves known by their artistic engagement with the community. " Always wanted to get in on this, but browsing the featured websites is the best part! Some artist's sites I'm loving right now, below.

So many ideas, so little time!

ALSO, UPDATE: I now have a new website! Care of Cargo Collective! Ch-ch-check it out!
