My friend (who also cut my fabulous new hair) offered to take photos of me and my headpieces. She has a kick-ass old-school large format camera (Gundlach 5x7 large format camera) and took some rockin' photos. Here's one of them :)

Been focusing on my hats so much that I miss making patchwork pieces.

So, you can imagine how excited I was when my cousin asked for a beach-themed patchwork for her future baby boy.

These are 4 separate pieces sewn by hand. Hope you like it Ching!

to kylie or not to kylie?

Kylie Minogue is hot hottie hot. And this is one of the reasons why I LOVE her.

I am assuming this outfit was Ziegfeld-inspired, worn by one of my fave 20's icons, Louise Brooks.

Which is why I am tempted to recreate this fab outfit for Halloween.
The head piece would be the major challenge in making this costume.
I don't know if I can do it. But I WANT to wear this!

Who wouldn't want to be draped in feathers?

be safe

Another storm is coming, work has been called off,
and people are afraid that this might be worse than Typhoon Ondoy.

Be safe everyone.
