I hope you guys know I like to be as honest as possible with you about my real life. I’d really hate it if anyone ever accused me of “perfect blogger” syndrome, and lets face it: There is absolutely nothing about my ridiculously fashionable wardrobe, spotlessly clean and impeccably decorated house, or angelic children that… Read More
Dresses, dresses, and more dresses! I wasn’t kidding last week when I said that’s all I’ve wanted to sew lately. I’m definitely an instant gratification kinda girl, and what could be more gratifying than whipping up an entire outfit in only an hour or so? Sure, shorts and tees are quick too, but there’s… Read More
Is it wrong that I want to fill Aurelia’s closet full of dresses and make her wear one everyday? I mean between the Soleil, the Caroline, the #2, this adorable Racerback from Crafterhours, and two or three more that I haven’t even shared yet, I’m dying of cuteness over here!

I’m not sure what the problem is, but both munchkins have been in this kinda cranky, “I’m not listening”, meltdown… Read More
I know this may come as a bit of a shock, but before Ant and I had kids, we actually used to be cool. Well cool-ish…in a darker, hardcore metal/goth/lolita kinda way. It’s hard to explain so you’ll just have to trust me on this one. We lived in Philly then, and frequently attended… Read More
Do you ever see a sewing project on one of you favorite blogs and think “Oh,oh, I’ve gotta make that for my son/daughter/grandma/ neighbor/second cousin twice removed?” Of course you do! What am I saying? I bet you’ve got pinterest boards full of those “I’ll really will make this one day” projects. I know I… Read More
