singing in the rain

I have not been feeling very inspired fashion wise the last few days. Spring sporadically disappears. Though the light in our hallway would dispute that...

I spent most of yesterday taking photos and loading things on Trade Me. I do have some items for Etsy as well but by the time I got all the measurements, photos etc. done for Trade Me I had no energy left for Etsy!

Instead, I spent the evening hemming vintage dresses and skirts, sewing buttons onto thrifted cardigans and coats and dancing to Rock Around the Clock in my living room. I love domesticity.

Now, I am going to indulge in watching 'Across The Universe' and drinking hot coffee on this windy Wellington day.

  1. Wellington was terrible today (Sunday)! There was even hail. I hate how so much of your fashion choices in Welly is dictated by its incredibly changeable weather.

  3. That dress is so cute! And the weather has been beyond shitty in Christchurch also.

    I just wanted to let you know that I am wearing one of your lovely bows today on the blog! I unstitched it from the headband - I hope you don't mind - and put a brooch fastening on it so that I could use it on the headband AND handbags AND hats AND etc. :D I've worn both bows dozens of times, and I love them!
