...............Super cute for summer!

I love this Amy Butler cotton print, if I could have a whole room covered in it I would be super happy. I guess I'll settle for a sweet halter dress instead.

Halter dress is made with two coordinating Amy Butler prints, and accented with white bias trim under the bust. The bodice is lined with white cotton, invisible zippered back and ties at the neck. Dress is a small and will fit a 34" to 35" bust and a 25" to 26" waist (depends on how tight you want the fit to be on you). The skirt from the waist to hem of pleated ruffle hem is 27". There are box pleats along the waistline and gathers under the bust to accent the fullness. This dress was worn once by my model Megan in a fashion show in June.

........................Finally! It's complete!

Prom dress for one of my teens at work. DONE DONE DONE DONE DONEEEEEEEEEE! Great trim from an Etsy shop, the rest from good ole JoAnn fabrics. Lace up corset back, fold over front and no, I did not use a pattern! I made it up! Yee haw! :)

...................................Guess I did something right!

This dress is being posted all over the place! In an etsy blog, emails and also on some page in Chicago about fashion. Let the orders begin!

...........................................yikes! I work too much!

But Saturday is THE BEST DAY OF THE WEEK EVER! I'm getting my Marilyn Monroe haircut and heading to Utica to see the bestest ever Miss Martin to get some more ink on my arm. Oh the joy!

Yeah......really that's it. I'm swamped in prom and bridal so I have no life.

............ouch

So I fell on my ass in the middle of Target. The floors there are super slippery and I went down like a champ. Annie's Mac and Cheese boxes went flying, the PUR water filter broke part of my fall and the stupid size 7 flats are too tight that I bought. My elbow is super bruised, my hip hurts, and my ankle is slightly twisted. Nice. I had a crap program teaching 7th graders about teen pregnancy only to get one kid saying 'fag fag fag' to another which honestly is a great way to make my blood boil. Ugh! Tweens!

On the upside I'm swamped with prom dress and bridal orders! 20 yards of seersucker showed up for 5 dresses which will be super cute and Renee's prom dress that I'm just making up is going along swimmingly. I cannot wait to bellydance tomorrow night for a cancer survivor group and then hang out with the love of my life afterwards. I'm sure it will make up for my blowout yesterday in Target. Damn you Target and your slippery floors!

Teen pregnancy rate down 2%, but America's still top on the list!

I doubt that teens are going to listen to Bristol Palin in regards to abstinence. Teens will do what they want to do, they are not all going to wait until marriage or even ever want to get married, OR ABLE TO. What is needed is more education in health classes, in gym class, in any class to get the message across in regards to making good decisions. To use birth control, to let them know what their options are. Sooo many schools turn their heads on this and whoa! What happens?! Teen pregnancies! Education FAIL.

On another note, I don't understand why people can't fill out the damn Census. It took me 5 minutes to do, how have people still not done it??? If you haven't, I'll be happy to send you my extra "Queer the Census" hot pink sticker to put on the envelope.
