Hey, can you drive over and cough on me a couple times? yeah, thanks.

with everyone that i know being sick and all that the

brightly colored frocks in semi-transparent fabrics really takes my mind off of being infected by all the mouth-breathers at ours school, who curiously always cough on MY head when i'm walking to class. not so fun.  so this will surely brighten up this snow day we are having today, which is double the awesome because it was the last day before winter break, so it's like one more day of doing nothing and eating fruitcake and peppermint hot chocolate...

well anyway, i love the Wunderkind spring 2009 line with the contrasting fabrics, textures and patterns

i love the supersized plaid thang going on

i think the swim suit-shaped silhouette is pretty awesome

i really like the olive military-inspired jackets and pants with belted flowing, floral, bows & lace shirts with bright summery colors

{{love this dress}}

love this dress even more a blue bow and olive jacket

enjoy your holidays

50s mom mixed with a touch of Alice in Wonderland

saw betsey johnson's spring 2009 line...

and i could only gasp in wonder as the hoop skirts in kaleidoscope colors, sweater reminiscent of nursery time and patterns that clash artfully.

love it.

here are some favs.

this dress reminds me off a dress that i would wear when i was little

that. skirt. is fab. and i could use some of those socks in everyday life.

i really like the silhouette of this dress. it has a hint of school girl-ishness and love how all the models carried a variety of metal lunch boxes and glossy colored wigs with black satin hats.

fab.

diy:: alphabet & ribbon

everyday since who knows when has been cold here. the weather pretty much consists of arctic winds blowing through, and snow falling every which way. besides reading magazines and drinking peppermint hot chocolate, there's not much to do. so i decided to break out my ol' diy skills and put them to work

 i found this tray at Target at one of my recent shopping experiences and glued (with my super-duper extra heavy duty glue gun! seriously, that thing can protect against bullets) some ribbon to it and hung it up.

fance-ayyy

btw, you could add any color of ribbon you want

but that was the only stuff i had on hand
