Pretty

Here are pics of a bunch of things that I've been drooling over on etsy...

I love the lines. And the little black bows.

I love the pattern, I'm crazy for trench coats anyway

Cute. Very cute. I like the hood.

Drool! If this one wasn't between 3 and 4 hundred dollars--I think that I'd be all over this coat.

It's fabulous-good enough to eat.

I'm having a violent urge to sew bows all over my clothing...

I love the lining of this fabric

I'm in great need of totes...I need to sew some. I bought a bunch of canvas last December, and haven't used anyy of it. It would be excellent for this type of bag.

Mod-coats

I hadn't been over to Modcloth for a while, so today I went over and had a peep at the coats.

Now I'm practically drooling all over myself, they have so many lovely coats.

I love this one: the collar is gorgeous, perfect for pairing with hats.

I love the scallop details. The color is cool too.

Elegant.

I love it. The lines are graceful and the print and the buttons are fun.

Another coat that I just adore, does this coat remind anybody besides me of caramel candy?

Beautious Coat

I adore this coat.
It's perfectly lovely and ladylike.
And it looks like a cappuccino.
So tasty.

It has been unusually cold this fall.
This past Saturday we had our first snow and it seems to be pelting freezing cold rain right now.
I've been envying other bloggers around the U.S. talking about their hot weather.
I'm such a wimp when it comes to coldness.
Although, a little bit is acceptable, because then I can wear big warm hats and pretty coats like this one.

I didn't snag this particular gem (waaaaahhh). I think by the time I spotted it someone else had dibs.

Yum, yum.

Maybe I can clone it...

Mod-picks

I thought I'd post some of the goodies that I've been drooling over...

Dainty Lady skirt
This skirt+the other items in this post are from www.modcloth.com

I don't have any white blouses. I think I should make one, or several. :)

Cute isn't it?

Little Sweetie skirt close-up. I love the layers of lace and tulle. Very pretty.

The little Sweetie Skirt. So pretty. I've been drooling over this one for a while now.

Simplicity No. 2581

I just bought this pattern on ebay. I've been on the hunt for a good dressy/long coat pattern, and I really kind-of liked this one. I was initially hunting for one with princess seams (my favorite). I cannot tell if this pattern has the princess seams, however it seems fitted enough for my tastes. I'm a bit of a sucker for the 'vintage' theme. Sooo... I'll give it a try and see how I like it. :)
