Cardigan, from Charlotte Russe; white tee (with the sleeves cut off), from GAP; drop crotch pants & hat, from Target; boots, from Payless; jewelry is handmade by yours truly.
The wintery weather is perfect for my man hat, as seen here from a post a long time ago (or so it seems). I absolutely adore my man hat — & I say “man hat” because that’s exactly what it is; I found it in the men’s section at Target last year & had to have it. I enjoy pulling it off, even if it does make me look like a boy…
So, I’m in a delightful mood, what with the rainy weather & all. Apparently, all of Southern California is right in the middle of a winter storm. It has been raining practically all day, & I am relishing in the fact that this gives me a reason to stay indoors & create. & that’s exactly what I’ve done.
I’ve been a jewelry making machine. So far, I’ve made 8 necklaces, with a few still pending in my imagination. I just hope they are loved as much as I enjoyed making them.
The pictures that I took of the necklaces don’t do them much justice, & for that I wish I had that beloved D60 I keep dreaming about. But… until then, my not-so-up-to-par point & shoot will have to do. (It’s a shame, too, how longing feelings change the way you view your current circumstances. For instance: when we got the camera I use now — a Panasonic DMC-TZ3 — I thought it was the cream of the crop! & now that I have eyes for the D60, I think it’s a piece of… rubbish, for lack of a better word. It’s just sad, especially knowing how much this camera cost us.)
Nevertheless, this is just a little preview of what I’m hoping to sell soon, as well as 3 pairs of earrings I’ve never worn. (Not all necklaces are shown, of course.)
Oh, & I would love to hear what you think about the idea! Seems like everyone is selling something, whether it be clothing, handmade items, or some form of art. I happen to be good at making jewelry, amongst many other things.
