non-fashion post... Julie & Julia

I finally got around to watching Julie & Julia while mr. andrew was at work.  I greatly enjoyed it.  I think I must be getting more emotional in my old age, I cried and cried. 

Amy Adams is always awesome, she is completely girl-crush worthy.

new hat and first sewing project

This is the gorgeous new hat that mr. andrew bought me for my birthday...
isn't it f*n delightful!!!!??!! I love it.  I can't wait for it to be cool enough to actually wear it. 

I thought I would also share some pics of my first sewing project.  It is a lolita inspired skirt and bow set, with a very me feel to it, the pattern being distinctly different from most lolita picks.





And, here is me wearing my bow.  I think it is pretty cute. The skirt was a big hit at work yesterday, i was pleased! :)

keeping fashion interesting

Lately I have been feeling so bored with my style and with fashion in general.  My wardrobe feels stale and getting dressed in the morning has lost a lot of its magic.  I am never one to get down for long, so I put my problem solving skills to work and have been delving into alternative styles.  I also bought a simple sewing machine so that I can make what I can not find to buy. 
I have always loved super feminine clothes so it is no surprise to me that my favorite style discovery (read- obsession) is Lolita.  I will not go super in depth on describing the style since I am sure I will fail miserably, and it is a complicated style to describe properly. A brief: It has nothing to do with sexy underage girls, think of it more like dressing like a beautiful doll or a Victorian girl. 
For more info about the style and its definition check out these links -
