The best in the West

My mom made some aprons for a wedding reception.
Anyway here is one of ten that she made.
All different designs, she made up her own patterns.
I love her.

Northwest Arkansas Fashion Show 2012

SO I got invited to be a part of the Fashion show in Fayetteville on March 8th!!! I am friends with this gal down there called Mayapple Salon and Boutique. Melissa Arens is so fabulous and so accommodating, fashionable and is full of natural beauty inside and out!! If it wasnt for how comfortable she made me feel and how much she actually made me feel wanted, I dont know that I could have done the show without it. The show was a bigger deal than I had anticipated at first and I lost sleep and pounds over it..mainly because I was hoping the styling of my vintage collection would be up to par. I thought it went well with the turbans and tie cuffs I made;) I am currently selling the tie cuffs and soon the turbans in Melissa's shop!
So what I got from it was awesome acquaintances, visually learning what I could have done different, crazy butterflies and most important...getting to be a part of this hectic and immensely creative fashion world for that one day. And before I forget, ladies! I wanted to give a special THANKS to all my pretty pretty models: Hannah, Alex, Mary, Shauna and Sarah! You guys killed it!
Awesome show, awesome company. Thanks to all the people involved.
Oh and guess who didnt bring her memory cards with her to the fashion show?! Its ME Its ME. So hopefully I will get some photos soon and show you some behind the scenes and runway shots. I took some with my phone but just not the same, but still glad I had something(sigh).

*These photos are from yesterday my sister and I rode to a wedding together up in St. Joseph MO and I had her snap these of me with my St Patrick's Day eyes and amazing Miista platforms and my Grandma's long lemon blazer mom brought up from the basement. I kinda forgot to pack for the wedding...but turned out that cream and yellow were the brides colors.
Anyway thought it was fun to wear my Grandma Hazels jacket and bring spring, lace, and killer platforms together. I almost wore huge flowers in my hair but well, didn't.

Before

After

Just hanging out at my folks for a while and since I didnt bring my entire wardrobe I decided to check out old stuff of my parents, un-used and needing to be re-purposed. Thanks dad, your shirt won out;)
So I just made a high low crop...it could have been a little better, but it took literally 10 secs, so. I really like how large it is on the top, then with the crop and tail...fun.

High waisted-wide leg Jeans: $7 from NBC (the tag was cut out)
Dad's shirt: swiped;)

Just some pics I've taken and messed with on my phone. My ever so changing hair colors. The turq I did this morning with some of my oil pastels:)

So I was driving around the other day, Henry had fallen asleep in the car on the way back from the store, so it seemed like a good op to just have a little me time. For my "me time", one of my favorite things to do is to enjoy some music, take a drive in the warm sun, and shoot photos of whatever I see. This is within a half mile or so of my house. I used an action called 'seventies'..ha sometimes its too much...but I really liked it in these, made them seem pretty in an eerie way. I liked the sky being a more sea blue color. I wondering if some of the destruction will be there for years and years and years. I know how much work there is going on and clean up since May but May is almost upon us again,...and....seems like it was just last week.
Crazy.

And this is what I saw...
