Liam's Haircut

Tomorrow will (hopefully) have some very exciting news to share with you (there's a hint in the last picture, perhaps you can guess at the surprise?)!

Presently working on a mega-mix of holiday jams to share with you on 8tracks and putting up new goods in the shop!

A couple months ago I received a glorious delivery of lovingly crafted knits from Canadian knitter and constant source of inspiration, Tara-Lynn. I've been meaning to make a post sharing this bundle but have found myself rather swamped this past month with various (exciting) duties in preparation for TLO's lingerie launch! Today we completed our hunt for the perfect fabrics in downtown Los Angeles and promptly began plotting our launch party(ies). If you are a Los Angeles lady and don't mind modeling in your skivvies please let me know! I'd love to set up an appointment with you this friday in our Altadena showroom (I will feed you mini chocolate bars, assorted fancy nuts, something with cheese and coffee).

Alright friends, the allergy pill that I took after greedily filling myself with said miniature chocolate bars is taking it's toll and I'm starting to make up words. I promise one day I'll write a post of true substance and not just a post containing brief updates and a promise of better posts to come. I'm the shopping mall Santa of the blogging world. Full of empty promises and allergy medication. I see a kitty is coming to visit me and that is most definitely my cue to get off of here and enter kitty dreamland.

(ps. I believe it was 100 today, which may also account for my abnormal sluggishness, can you imagine? 100 in November? Well, when I was a little girl there was often snow in the first week of November! Granted, I was living significantly north of my present location. See this? wondrous allergy medication at work, turning me into your grandpa.)

Jour de l'Action de Grâce

(A picture of Liam and I taken in the same spot when we were just little chickens.)

Last weekend Landon, my brother Liam, his girlfriend Ali and I drove up to join my Dad, Aunt, Uncle, Grandma and their significant others at our favourite home away from home in Chelsea to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving. I don't think the weekend could have been any more perfect than it was! We ate glorious amounts of delicious and lovingly prepared food (including our fill of montreal bagels), played settlers of catan, dug up an old row boat and found a raft while on our maiden voyage, made a "mystical fire" and ran around a lot (or rather, Liam and Landon ran around a lot and I hopped a bit and kicked dry leaves). Fortunately, Landon and his new best friend phone were there to document the whole thing in motion (baaaahahahaha).

I hope all my Canadian pals had an equally delicious and sun-filled weekend with friends and family!

To get you in the mood for this months next holiday I made my first halloween mix (mostly vampire themed) stay tuned for monster mix next (no monster mash)!

Just a quick post to share a new mix and some exciting news!

New mix: here!

Exciting news: Thanks to all of the generous beings that helped spread the word (see the wonderful and complete list here) and backed us our kickstarter project was a success! I'm up to my neck in bows and am putting pen to paper to get all of our rewards finished and sent off in a timely manner, whew. In a few weeks I'll be joining Elvia in LA to start the hunt for fabrics, meet with the sewers and start plotting our next collection! I plan to document this process to the best of my ability so keep an eye on our tumblr for frequent project updates should you be curious! I can't express just how enthralled we are that the project was a success! Thank you so, so, so very much! You guys did it!

october in pictures. october was month full of bed and kleenex, visits from friends and family, and feasts of turkey, curry and peanut butter, honey and banana sandwiches. i visited with my beloved brother for the first time in a year (pictured above canoeing and performing miracles) in beautiful canada for thanksgiving. how quickly this year is passing! i'm always keen on even numbered years and i have a good feeling about the one around the corner. now is time to enjoy the remaining months and upcoming holiday festivities.

my lovely Alexandra is having a trunk show next thursday! check out her blog for details on what time and where to go to drink wine and try on her lovely collection. charming marshall rake of Epilogue Magazine did a little interview with me a couple weeks ago that is now up on the site!

october edition

most of these chill-inducing pictures courtesy of Vintage Photo. i have found myself once again in a horizontal state, i blame germy transit system and touching my face all the time. i need one of those cone collars so i can't reach my face while in public. i'm determined to make this a productive sickness and will be attempting my first knit hat (to disastrous results no doubt. one time i made my brother a scarf for christmas which he promptly misplaced and knit himself a new one with two stripes more than the first and in much better condition. out-knitted by my own brother and on something as simple as a scarf. hm.) i hope you are all in better health and are enjoying all fall's glories! pumpkin spiced coffee, wooly coats, leather gloves, stockings, and smokey air. mmm. what are your halloween costume plans? my costumes are never very inspired having gone in the past as a "deer cat", cardboard box with metallica written on it (was beavis and butthead but ended up just being the metallica box set by the end of the night), a pippi longstocking pickle and a nothing - you can see halloween dress-up is not a strong point for me, but this year i'm determined! inspire me with your brilliant costumes!

my apologies for the blog neglect - landon has just returned home from a week long meditation retreat and i am presently on a buying trip in phoenix/la all of this week (and last). needless to say i am missing my honey and home terribly and eagerly anticipate our saturday morning reunion where i intend to spend the bulk of the day lounging around bed in minimal amounts of clothing (though breaking to "fashion show" my latest vintage acquisitions, three months on strict budget has left our closet neglected but i've made up for it tenfold having spent just one day rummaging around phoenix antique malls and thrift stores). august is flying by and each passing day has me more and more excited at an autumn in new york. fall is my favourite season for dressing and i am eagerly anticipating donning hats, gloves, capes, socks and eating a variety of pumpkin flavoured goodies. what are you looking forward to wearing (or eating) this fall?

i don't want to shave my legs, i want autumn

this weekend i had a sweaty arse crack for 6.5 hours digging through second hand clothing in a 110 degrees! as a reward for filling a hotel laundry bag with the smelliest clothing i've ever peeled off i was given these two hats. naturally i've spent the remainder of the weekend parading around in them and coercing landon to take my picture so i could write a blog entry and gloat about my presents. how kind he is and how classy i am (not)!
