he's fantastic

Pastels are not friends with the camera. I learned this while I tried to photograph this outfit today. It just really doesn't work. I'm completely back into my skirt phase after I made this floral Liberty of London one as well as two other new ones during the break. Anyways, I wore this to see Fantastic Mr. Fox the other day (which is A++++, get off my blog and go see it right now)

P.S. Sorry for the twice-as-many-pictures-as-usual, I was really frustrated with the idea of pastels.

these shoes can't be worn enough

Can it be? A new skirt? Indeed, after a year of no new skirts (the horror), I found the time and energy to make another one, this time in the greatest pattern yet. I can't get enough of the blue with the red dots. Expect much more to come, and much more monotony of my outfits. Whatever, I haven't gotten sick of them yet.

and some of it was yellow

I picked up this sweater and skirt at Parkerhawn Vintage's moving sale for a combined price of $6 last week. The sweater is both the itchiest and cutest sweater I have ever owned, and the little green velvet skirt makes me look like a Christmas elf in the greatest way possible.

Title stemmed from a sort of sequel to this post

we love you conrad

I love musicals. Ever since I was a tiny little small person I've loved musicals. My mother drilled show tunes into our tiny minds until we dreamed lyrics to Annie. For years, I was convinced that there were piles of men gambling in the gutters because of Guys and Dolls. This outfit is what I wore to a production of Bye Bye Birdie performed by a crapload of eighth graders.
