day three in bed with the flu.
i’ve exhausted all un-read options in my google reader many times over, and re-organized my collection of must-have jeffrey campbell-bookmarks into the order i will acquire them in. (i am now in the process of figuring out how that will happen.)
obviously, after those things have been done, the only thing left to do on the internet is obsessively hit the “refresh” button on the page i have devoted AT ALL TIMES and ONLY TO wardrobe_remix. duh.
which is how i found yarn over movement. (there are reasons to be ocd.)
see this? this is exactly how one gracefully transitions from summer to early fall. cute mini skirt and tee combo? check. covetable jaunty cap and scarf? check. slightly muted colors? check. i now see the error in the way i have been lurking around my apartment for the last three days in a mint green american apparel one-piece and my stretched out black beanie, in a fever-induced stupor.
no, diana! wrong!
since i had plenty of time to lurk, i also discovered that this girl who has saved me from total fall-fashion self-humiliation also has a great blog and an etsy, (which she promises to re-open in the beginning of september,) where she sells hand-made goodies such as cowls, lace and cable berets, and cable fingerless gloves.
i’m wondering if she takes special-requests for a mint-green combo of all three, to match my fall one-piece?
Love her blog, and LOVE the way you write Diana.
way way way too many of your latest posts sound like advertisements. what happened?
elsie: it seems like more and more lately, the styles i fall in love with on w_r and other blogs end up being attached to awesome girls who are trying to support themselves with their diy-ish talents.
i think this is fantastic, and it makes me really happy to (maybe?) spread the word a little bit, while also oogle-ing their efforts.
i was very happy to spend a ridiculous amount of time reading her blog and lusting over her FANTASTIC LOOKING life! and i think i’ll be very happy to support this crafty momma on her store too – better than giving my money to a corporation anyday! THANKS for the tip – i don’t mind a bit!
such a great blog!! cute outfit xo
damn girl, wow how do i deserve such kind words! i really appreciate the shout out for yarnovermovement… i’m still clumsy & unsure what to write with my blog, so i will aspire to be more interesting hopefully, so come back
the green beret looks lovely with your hair color.
love your blog.
get well soon.
Way way way too many blogs advertise companies which have nothing to do with small independant designer’s using their hands and tools to create beautiful, useful and inspiring products for us to enjoy and cherish. The more avenues to promote amazing hand-made work like Tara-Lynn’s the better!
samantha – thank you
I love love love her stuff!!!!
