a clean room & what i wore in it

head to toe:
sweater - thrifted
necklace - kurt halsey
brooch - made by me
belt - vintage
dress - thrifted (actually a skirt i thrifted in highschool!)
tights - mall
shoes - walmart (oops)

i finally cleaned my craft room on friday. it is no longer a major disaster, haha. now i can get to work on the aprons for real. i kind of ran out of time friday because of cleaning (i'm a slow cleaner) and snow shovelling.

i loooove the colours in this outfit along with my new chair! eeks! i wore this outfit on friday to ivan's mom's birthday and in the interest of full disclosure...i didn't wear those shoes out of the house. it was too snowy. i actually wore these ones instead.

today we're meeting ivan's mom for lunch (indian food, yum!) and then i'm going to an oscar party. i never watch award shows so i think it will be kind of fun to.

what did you get up to this weekend?

love, elycia

ps. have you entered the twin peaks giveaway?

  6. nicole, haha, thanks for clarifying the question mark. that sneaky misplaced punctuation! i got the sewing machine from Value Village for $20. i haven't tried it out to see if it actually works but I really just bought it for decoration anyways. i love it!

    thanks everyone!

  10. Another lovely outfit! You're so pretty and I love the shelf.
    Also, I was wearing my Bonjour headband the other day and one of my grade 8 girls loved it. I said that a friend had made it and she said "well tell her she's cool". So there you go, you're cool, just fyi. haha.

  11. I love that color on you! So bright. :)

    I'm completely jealous of your craft room. I'm trying to get up the guts to clean, but my room is so overwhelming right now.

  12. I love your soft curls and that 2nd photo of you sitting on your new chair is lovely. That's so funny that you and I both cleaned up this weekend (must be something in the air! spring maybe?) and know the happiness of a clean and organised space :) Have a fab day!
