Ring Fever!

While ring fever may sound like some terrible plague or STD or a combination of hay fever and ringworm, I assure you it's not. Basically, I discovered JewelMint and now have the strong and sudden urge to buy tons of rings. It's a long and slippery slope because they're only $29.00 AND... wait for it... Nylon sent out a coupon (NYLON50) for 50% off. I must use my willpower!

Someone please save me! My ring selection is below, you can buy them all for me if you please. :D




And then I looked at the necklaces...



Please help me choose a ring!! Also, if you're interested in checking it out click here. And if you're tempted to buy something, use the coupon! :)

Random Ramblings a.k.a Pillow Talk!

This video has the potential to be extremely embarrassing when I actually wake up refreshed in the morning. Oh well... I don't think I'm talking about much.



FYI, I'm obsessed with this song:



After listening to myself for about 12 seconds on the video, I should definitely be banned from speaking. You know, it's that thing where you HATE your recorded voice and think you're the most annoying person in the world... or maybe that just happens to me.

Strawberry Valentine Waffles

While most of you probably celebrated (or maybe you were one of those haters) Valentine's Day last Monday my boyfriend wasn't around to celebrate with me. Instead I got some roses (yay!) and a card from him in the mail. :) So today we had our belated 14th of February. I started the day with some festive buttermilk waffles.



Yummm. Here is a recipe that is quite similar to mine. I don't use sugar nor vanilla extract in mine. I also use more butter, but hey, you don't want to get fat, do you? Sorry that the photos are a bit blurry, I couldn't wait to scarf my waffles down.



As far as heart shaped waffle irons go, they are EVERYWHERE and quite cheap right now. The rest of my day was super nice and I'll have another little V-Day goodie to blog about so stay tuned for some more belated valentine action.

What did you guys do for Valentine's Day (besides keep updated on NY Fashion Week)?

Rodarte FW 2011

All I can think of when I see this (most amazing) collection is 'prairie world meets fantasy world'. The prints are really to die for... and the stylistic darts.

Yum!

To Do: Pittsburgh Half Marathon 2011

This will be my second time at this half marathon. I hope to beat my (extremely crappy) time from last year. Mapping this years course really tired me out! Thinking about all those miles is a killer. I really take my hat off to those at run a full marathon and well, I think ultramarathoners are downright crazy (read: I want to be you).





I urge you guys to sign up. The half marathon is 80% full and the full marathon 75%. Sure this was not fashion related, but it's definitely an important part of my life. I was working on some sleepwear to be finished today but I ran out of thread 95% through the project. Oops!

Neu Vest

I've had the idea for this vest in my head for ages. I don't know why I never bothered to make it before because it's PERFECT. It really adds a wonderful dimension to an outfit and would even be great in the summer over a t-shirt or tank and a pair of shorts. It looks great belted, over long sleeve shirts... I think I'm obsessed. I hope you guys aren't sick of seeing black. ;)








Interested in purchasing a neu vest? For sale here.

Now, in with the bad news! I ordered fabric 2 weeks ago on ebay and it STILL hasn't arrived. I really wanted to get sewing before Valentine's Day but noooo the people who I bought the fabric from thought I shouldn't. Ok, I'm done with my rant. On another note, thank you to all my followers, new and old and to those that comment or even just read. Ever email, IM and comment means a lot! :)
