These are a Few of my Favorite Things [right now]

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens.
Brown paper packages tied up with string,
these are a few of my favorite things.

This Watch [Michael Kors Jet Set in horn]



Target's new brand called Tucker- seriously, check it out.





My new subscription to Cook's Country!



Toothpick riding pants from J. Crew- my faves right now. You'll probably see me wearing them every time you see me until it's hot outside again. [for real, they are perfect. if you are in the market for a new pair of black pants, buy these.]

John-Johns and A-Line dresses




Some of my first creations on my sewing machine! Still a work in progress but fun none-the-less! Both outfits shown are a size 12 months. Each outfit can be customized to fit different sizes and fabrics can be changed. Bow and buttons can be changed to match accordingly.
