Flickr Cleanup – February 13th, 2009

In Craftyness, fashion, to-do on February 13, 2009 at 2:48 pm

Two new pics from my Flickr:

I wanted something to feel better about, the only winter shoes I had were a pair of black plastic Wellies, and… well I just wanted them. And I love them and they go with everything and I think they’ll last forever. They’re the Frye Carmen 3-strap in brown (which is not reflected well in the picture, but it was an iPhone shot, so doctoring was better than color accuracy). I got them through *Zappos, and even though I have no affiliation with them at all, can safely say that they kicked ass in the customer service department. 

* link is to the horribly addictive new way to search Zappos, called Explore Zappos. It gives you a big field of shoes, you pick ones that interest you and then it shows more like that and you keep drilling down and down until you totally need those cork-soled red patent leather wedge gladiator sandals. You totally do.

 

The above is a really classy picture of me in the office bathroom, wearing the first sweater I ever finished knitting. And it’s cute! And warm. And, yes, I know I shouldn’t start sentences with “and.” The pattern is from Needled, the design is called Owls, and mine is all done except for the very Coraline-sounding step of “adding buttons for eyes.” Coraline, by the way, was super awesome. Go see it before it’s gone.
