Stay warm, stay cute.

It's important to stay warm during the winter months, but that doesn't mean you can't accessorize while bundling up.

I love ear muffs. They always keep my ears nice and cozy.

Of course if earmuffs aren't enough, there's always the option of a cute hat.

Scarves are always nice and toasty. 

I'm tempted to add a piece of yarn to my mittens. 
I am always losing everything. 


A muff, for those really cold days.

Leg warmers are always a nice touch, regardless of season.

Stitch.


I thought I should post some of the things I've made over the past few days.
Good for those days when I can't decide to wear a dress or skirt. 

Somehow I made this two sizes too big, but it looks fine with the belt on. 
Otherwise it fits like a potato sack.  

This one is nice and cozy.

Charlie bit me.


I found some Charles Manson related books while digging through the basement.
I find true crime and things of that nature interesting.

I had forgotten all about them. 
They're all worth the read, in my opinion.

A week or two ago, a friend of mine linked me this, and it gave me quite a laugh.
No matter how many times I see it, I still laugh.

Squish.



Today really tested my anxiety levels. 
Everywhere I went, it was packed.


I popped into Walmart, and got a few things.

These nails really caught my eye. Aren't they neat?


I also got this Barbie.
I like how simple, yet classy this outfit is.

This t-shirt will go with the few cupcake skirts I have. :D


I also got a few things at the thrift store.

A brand new pajama set. It still had the tags!
Look at the bear detail. Cute, cute.

This was a surprise to find.
It's vintage too! 1983.

Dinosaur fabric. 
I might make a skirt with this.

Princess mug. Now even my cups of tea will be cute.

I'm going to decorate this somehow. Maybe bleach, and dye it. I haven't decided yet.

This is old too, as you can see.
But at least he's not drowning anymore.

Needle and Thread.


Today I went to the United States, on one of my regular ventures to Jo-Ann's.

These are the fabrics I bought.
Two of them are flannels. The bunny fabric, and the mermaid fabric.
How cute. 

When I first considered buying flannel, I wasn't too keen on the idea of making a dress or skirt with it. Due to it's tendency to pill. But I've found it's very handy this time of year. I wear my skirts/dresses year round, and it's important to stay warm. Flannel seems to do the trick!

I also popped into the Dollar Tree, and bought two cute headbands.


On my way home I picked up a lovely little iced cappuccino.
