rockin' robin

Sometimes all it takes is one photo to get me thinking about a new way to wear something I already own. Take, for instance, this promo poster for the new dramedy Beginners --

Hello, red dress with periwinkle tights? I totally own a red dress. And periwinkle tights. And black flats, for that matter.

tights, gap
belt, j.crew
bangle, kate spade
flats, urban outfitters
skull ring, ebay
stone ring, etsy



If some of the images in this post aren't showing up correctly, let me know. I am having issues with Blogger. *shakes fist* Or Photobucket. Or both. I can't tell which, but one of them is royally screwing up right now.

Also, because I like to let my geek flag fly once in a while, check out my latest project:


Is that cross stitching with Star Trek characters? YOU BET IT IS. Also, because I believe in giving credit where credit is due, I used the amazing characters that etsy seller weelittlestitches creates as a template for my own little dudes. I would have bought a pattern from them, but they didn't have any Star Trek characters available, so I made my own. This is a Day 2 progress shot. Once I finish this around Thursday, I'll share the finished product with you all.

    Totally loving your new project. I have such a backlog of crafting projects that I haven't been able to start on the great Ed Hardy cross stitch patterns I purchased.
