Rainy Day Not So Blues

A little street style inspiration from yesterday. The weather made for quite a grey day, but it was nice to see someone brighten things up with lots of color!

What I Wore 10.5.09

And so this is what I wore today. It was a terribly gloomy day--dark and rainy. I just wanted to sleep and drink tea and sketch, but I had to go to class and work instead.
Sorry for the awk-weird appearance of my face. I was going for something new and something to illustrate my rather sad/angry mood today.

Until next post!

So what if it drizzles and dribbles and drips?

Finally! Rain!...that I sort of missed out on. =( I was working for most of the day, so I didn't get a chance to break out the umbrella. I just stood inside the rather cozy coffee shop and watched the water fall. After work, I scurried on over to a used book store nearby. Books and rain just make sense. I picked up a copy of "Falling Up" by Shel Silverstein and a great 70''s Vogue Sewing book. Witty poems, fun illustrations, and a great sewing book were the perfect end to my day.

I've got to try this sometime. Clothed, of course! =)

The Vogue Sewing Book has a great section on some great designers. Here, my fashion love for Yves Saint Laurent.

Sunny with a chance of rain

As requested by K, I decided to take a photo...or two of my new U.O. umbrella. With no rain, that didn't stop a true fashionista from breaking it out anyway. A little help from mom, I did a few shots with "rain" (the water hose is magic!). Voila! Celebrate our freedom! Happy Independence day all!

Caution: Work Ahead

I've been m.i.a for a few days due to work and other projects. You'll notice the new, badly done header. It's a temp. I'm working on illustrating something new, and I'm trying out new sizes. Hopefully, it won't hurt your eyes too bad! If there are any ideas for a groovy, eye-catching header design, please, shoot them my way!

Today's photo shows some of my new wardrobe additions. U.O. red sunnies and a gold vintage clutch found at a yard sale. I've also aquired a new umbrella that I have yet to use.

*C'mon rain!*

Until next post!
