What I wore: foxy

Sweater//UO. Dress//Moksha. Tights//Target. Boots//Forever 21.



I got this awesome dress for my birthday from a little shop in Seattle called Moksha. Most of the pieces are vintage pieces that have been altered for a more modern silhouette (shortened, elastic in the waist etc). It is so great and it's right on The Ave in the university district. So all my University of Washington peeps, go check it out!

What I wore: Sir Mix Patterns A lot


This outfit is from a while ago but I liked it so I figured I'd still post it!

Shirt//Atlas Vintage. Skirt//Rave (remember Rave?) Belt//? Tights//again, ? Shoes//Target

Yay for "it's dark outside so I'll take a picture in my kitchen with my iPhone pictures!"

PS: I have Christmas pictures and what not but they are on my mother's camera which is inconvientently located at my mother's house. Would it be weird to post them like next week? Yes? No? What about Halloween pictures? Too long ago? Probably.

A place to rest your head.

So. I just realized, I never showed you guys pictures of my new flat (too pretentious? Ok, apartment)! Here are some pictures of my room. It's slightly more ehhh how do you say? Lived in? now but it's a cozy place. The rest of my apartment isn't super exciting (ok, except for our sweet "Christmas" lights) but maybe I'll put up some pictures of the rest of my pad as well.


Quilt, heart garland and monster made by mom. Print by Elsie Flanigan (now Larson). Frames from Ikea painted by me. Embroidered tree by me. Thrifted owl. Sock monkey collection.


Various lawn gnomes, owls, Lalaloopsy dolls (I really need some kids so I don't feel as weird buying them but they are just soooooo cute!). Books. Scrapbooks. South lake Union poster from Seattle Met magazine.


Closet (strangest designed closet I've ever seen). Dresser with silk scarves hanging on the side. Makeup in Ikea baskets. Deer head ring holder see {here}. Jewelery box from the thrift store that we painted and put new fabric in.


Paper lanterns were my mom's! "You are an original" print from Target. Watermill embroidery from the thrift store. CTR embroidery by me. Washington State print from {LivyLoveDesigns. Mirror from the dollar store. Print from.....ah! I can't remember! I got it at Urban Craft Uprising in Seattle. And last but not least, Hurricane Ridge print from....wait for it....REI! My brother and dad were getting some camping equipment and they had a series of vintage national park posters! I saw it and knew it had to be mine. I mean, it's a whole lot cheaper then a backpacking backpack!
