What I wore today!

Today I went back in time to circa 1953 - I was just thinking about the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and thought of using that as my inspiration for what I should wear today. From my little wardrobe I found a 3/4 blue sleeved shirt, a brown belt and an old white skirt my Nanay got me. The while skirt I had hiding in the back because I didn't use it. I remember when she first got me that skirt, I though it was hideous. Mainly because of its abnormal length and height of where it sat. But despite that, I'm glad my nanay got it for me and that I kept it! So maybe some of the stuff my nanay gets me does look good - I just con't see it

DIY hole T Shirt

I went a little spaz during the week because I needed something new but relaxed in my wardrobe without spending any money. 

How can you do that? I think I found the solution - Cutting up and old top to make it look better and more entertaining than having it as another sleepwear shirt. 

What I wore to trabajo today!

Today I went into work with a black skirt, heels and a sea-farer inspired shirt. I just wore the same shirt that I wore to Catherine's lunch in Jan. I think it's ok mixing and matching as long as you don't do a repeat mix in a close space of time. (that's when people might notice)

I found this old bracelet in our garage in our sewing supplies! In all that fabric I found a little bracelet! This is what happens when you clean your home~you find random stuff that you didn't know existed, or you find stuff you were looking for 3 months ago!

Screen Printing

 Last night  I went to a screen printing class with the Red Hot Arts Center ~ and it was heaps of fun. I really liked how the folks there came up with their designs for their shirt. This is my design to throw on my shirt-just a face of a girl.

 This was a great intricate design that has the text 'seed'. I think that it's cute because it has a shape of a seed/waterdrop with roots and the signs of a growing plant from the top. It's great artwork to put on a shirt - and she made two of them! It's going to be a great couple shirt.

What I wore yesterday ~ 24 Feb 2011

I wore this out to the Business at Sunset last night. A white top with thin cotton is great in hot weather but you can see right through it! I thought it was ok not to wear an undershirt this time because my bra seemed to compliment the whole outfit. The bra was mainly white with a black lace trim ~ my Nanay even said it was ok. The only thing she asked me to do was to add leggings underneath my skirt. She thought it was too short. I also had some nice high heels from Ellen and I put my hair up in a very kiddy way - half my hair up and on top of my head.
