I think I dreamed you into life

Right, so apparently this exists in real life, not just in my dreams. Like, this is literally a dream come true; I have probably dreamed of myself wearing a sequined jumpsuit on more than one occasion. Some people might think that is kind of weird, but I really couldn't care less.
This is so amazing that I've just started singing that old Savage Garden song in my head.

Anyways, this amazing jumpsuit is from Asos's new Black label, and you can ogle it in more detail here.

You tried to put the fire out, but you used gasoline

Dear January Jones,
Fuck my life and give me that dress.

As you, dear reader, may or may not know (you most likely do not) my little sister is completely in love with Neil Patrick Harris, for obvious reasons. He is ridiculously funny. Another thing that you may or may not know is that NPH hosted the Emmys last Sunday night. Laura obvs PVR'd it, and since it's not like I had anything better to do, I watched it with her. So blah blah they were funny and whatever, but here is my point: When Mad Men won for best drama at the end (which I really don't think surprised anyone) and the cast walked on stage, I was so mesmerized with January Jones' dress that I probably spent more time looking at it than Jon Hamm's face.

In case you are somehow still unclear on what he looks like, here is a picture:

So yeah, kind of a big deal. And yes, I'll admit that I spent like twenty minutes looking at pictures of him on google images. I was trying to find one of him when he guest starred on 30 Rock and wore glasses and a plaid flannel shirt (if you know me at all, you'll understand this) but they were all kind of hideous, so I gave up. Whatever.

A song I've never ever heard is stuck in my head.

I made some cool scarves, and then I took pictures so I can sell them on etsy.
For a while now I've been at a loss as to where in my house I can take pictures like this. Our house is full of stuff; there aren't blank walls anywhere. I've taken to going outside for photographs, but I didn't really want bright green foliage in the background of photos of winter scarves. Today I walked into the front hall, and realized it was the perfect place for a photo shoot. It has great light and the furniture is cute and old looking, plus the full length mirrors on the closet doors make for a great background.
Anyway, this is one of the scarves I took pictures of today, it should be up on etsy soon-ish.

Zara dress, Joe Fresh cardigan, some tights, handmade scarf

All systems are go!

I've been knitting up a storm the last few days (when I should have been packing). I literally knitted until my fingers were sore; one of them is even kind of swollen. But look at what I have to show for it! I finally have stuff up in my etsy store! So go check it out! I only have 7 things in there so far, but I have more I'll be putting up in the next few days, so look out!

It's a tricky tricky, this little one two

Whoah dudes (or, more accurately, dudettes) look what I did today! I had an exam at 10 this morning (or, uh, yesterday I guess, technically) and it only took half an hour to do, so I sort of had nothing to do the rest of the day, so I knitted stuff.  I actually should have been packing, but that's totally lame, so I didn't. 

That's six, count 'em, SIX mighty fine bracelets there, wouldn't you say? I also made 1 1/2 necklaces, one of which (the 1/2 one) is not even in the style of a braid! 

Also of note is the fact that the yellow bracelet seen above is made with yarn that I hand dyed with turmeric. The yarn it's made from was dyed a few months ago, and I used up the last of it on that one, but today I dyed more! It's sort of a lot of work, but it's worth it for the gorgeous colour it gives you. 

After my exam tomorrow morning, I plan on taking some more pictures, and actually putting stuff up on etsy! Whoah man!

Unrelated to the above: 

1. It turns out that Zac Efron is a huge nerd. I saw it today on much music. They were asking him all these nerd questions, and he knew the answer to every single one!
2. Everyone in the whole entire world should probably start listening to Röyksopp, if they don't already. Especially their newest album, Junior. I am seriously addicted and I don't want to stop.
3. I watched three episodes of The Hills today, and I feel so dirty. The first two were in the afternoon when there was nothing else on, but then I watched the new episode tonight, and the aftershow. What's wrong with me? I seriously thought I was over this stage of my life.

I want you, I need you, oh baby oh baby

Um yeah, hi. I'm pretty sure I need this book in my life. Like, pretty much definitely. Yeah.

So maybe you want to buy it for me? I think that you probably do. You can get it here.

Well then

My roommate totally gave me flack last night for wearing keds out to the bar instead of heels (what can I say? I'm lazy and already tall) but look! 

The Queen of dressing fancy is wearing the exact same keds that I have out and about at Coachella! Therefore, it must be perfectly acceptable to wear them to the nasty nasty Roadhouse. 

And it's not like there are any cute boys in this city anyways.
