mad affair

i'm going to a holiday party in november at the ritz carlton that has a mad men theme and i've been going crazy looking for a great dress to wear. i know i have time, but i'm SO excited to get all dressed up for a fun evening! here are some pictures i've found as inspiration.

sunday lovin'

happy sunday!

i've grown to LOVE my sundays off because it's usually the only day that i have to myself (aside from church) to do what i want. I had a very fun and busy week and today was a great ending to my week. 

today i worked on the draping and pattern for a dress i saw a while back and didn't get. i haven't been able to stop thinking about this dress so i decided to just make it. it's pretty simple but so fun with an uneven hem. i plan on doing a blazer over it. i didn't finish it today so i decided to leave it pinned to my dress form so i wont forget about it and i'll actually finish it. haha.  

this week i styled a bride and the company tweeted a picture of her mentioning me! she is absolutely gorgeous and she was so fun, i just had to share this picture.

thursday night i went and saw kevin devine at the troubadour in west hollywood for his recently released album 'between the concrete and clouds' tour. i will never get tired of seeing him play. he puts on a great show and i love his music. he's been getting a lot of publicity lately as an up-and-coming indie artist which makes me very happy for him, but sad at the same time. 

i finally got a kevin devine shirt (one that fits properly)!

i've been quite inspired lately and i really hope this inspiration and motivation sticks around! here's to a great week! i'll leave you with a video of 'awake in the dirt' from the show thursday.

who knew a mohawk could be so girly

 i really, really, really want to cut my hair like this. but i know the second i did, i'd cry for a week because half my hair will be gone. i LOVE this, too bad i don't have the guts to do it!
