Now that the days are starting to get warmer around here and I want to spend all of my time outside, I’m coveting this killer halterneck hoodie style by dressedbydanni. This sexy top is easily adaptable for daytime or for going out at night.
Each one is made to order, so you can get it in […]

Custom Centric [Part 1: Sandmaiden]

Posted by MissMischief on January 31st, 2008

In the past few weeks, I’ve been blessed with several incredible Etsy sellers who have worked very close with me to create a custom product for me (based on other pieces of theirs). It is only coincidence that three custom orders happened so close within one another, and because of the great communication and […]

Styledash

Posted by MissMalaprop on January 10th, 2008

I’ve got a new gig, blogging over at Styledash. I first learned about this blog almost a year ago when they linked to my post about my entry in Etsy’s Upcycling contest. Since then I’ve been following it regularly, and now I’ll be writing for them as well! I’ve already got a […]

I’m headed out to Austin, TX today to check out the fifth annual Stitch Fashion show and Guerrilla Craft Bazaar. The whole shebang happens tomorrow, November 10 and takes place at the Austin Convention Center.
I was there two years ago, missed last year’s event, and I’m super excited to check out the biggest and […]

Happy Halloween!

Posted by MissMalaprop on October 31st, 2007

My favorite holiday of the year is here! Yes, it’s Halloween!
While I will not be reviving my infamous Cher costume again this year, I did find this amazing Cher-inspired headpiece made by Peacock Blue Design Studio on Etsy a few days ago and just had to share:

And while I’m lusting over the work of […]

Brynja Icelandic Wool Sweaters

Posted by MissMalaprop on October 12th, 2007

Somehow the other day I stumbled across this site called TalentDatabase.com. Yet another social networking site, this one seems pretty cool because it allows you to create a profile and portfolio where you can show off all of your artistic pursuits in one place. (Which is great if you’re like me and can’t […]

lindamade crocheted hats & accessories

Posted by MissMalaprop on September 25th, 2007

I’ve always loved bright pink and orange paired together. And I LOVE this hat & muffler combo, crocheted by lindamade.

It’s not even remotely cold enough down here in NOLA to think about wearing something this wonderfully warm yet. Although…I can only imagine how great something like this would be to have to […]

Tees For Change

Posted by MissMalaprop on September 20th, 2007

I’m usually not much of one for message tees, but I love the spirit of this one by Tees For Change: “Be fearless.”
Most of my personal life mottos are along the same lines… I don’t really see the point in doing something if you’re only going to do it half-assed, you know? And […]
