All the Tights


Clockwise from top left:
red & blue-green ombre tights from Kron {via Modish}
Black Over the Knee Stripe Tights from ASOS {via enid hwang’s Pin}
Circleline from Patternity {via Pattern Pulp}
Kneepad Nylon Tights from Hansel From Basel {via Teen Angeter’s Pin}

It figures. It’s at least 80º outside these days and I’m finding the best tights every which way I turn. To that I shake my fist at the heavens and vehemently declare “No fair, Universe. No fair at all.”

The Swimsuit Issue

I hate seasonal shopping. I don’t want to commit to a new coat in August when I’m thinking about cookouts and college football, or a bathing suit in March when my life revolves around comfort food. One thing I am happy about? The resurgence of retro-styled bathing suits adorning the racks this year, I’ve always found them the most flattering and comfortable. My eyes are on the prize.

Embroidery Thread

Ever since making these necklaces for some friends I’ve been flat-out obsessed with embroidery thread. My only tryst with it in the past was short-lived, in the form of 6th grade bracelet making. In fact, some of the thread I used on my necklaces was from the 6th grade. (No joke. It’s in a box with my name on it.) All of a sudden the possibilities seem limitless.
