Stuck in the 90s

I honestly think everything goes with boots, especially combat and work boots. Amirite?

And you can't really tell from the pics above, but I like this detail on the tunic.

On the crafting front, here's the latest thing I sewed: a shirt for my middle child. He said he wanted me to make him another one, and who am I say no? He even picked out the fabric:D

You look nice in your tunic and combat boots, but I think your son stole the show. He picked out that fabric? He's totally got a good eye. The fabric and sewing together makes it look like something one of those department stores would sell for $50.

I agree, and tend to love wearing boots, namely ankle boots with pretty much everything, haha. I love the result of your latest sewing project. It's fun that you let him pick out the fabric too, my mum used to let us do that when we were young and she'd sew away. <3 Happy Monday, Emmy! x/Madison

Emmy, boots will never go out of style! So you are not stuck. Love your tunic. Both the print & side detail are pretty :D Look at YOU! A shirt is one of the HARDEST things to make and the one you did for your son looks pretty amazing. Also tell him, I love his taste in prints. He picked out a really good one :D

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
