Happy Thanksgiving!!

What's better than thanksgiving than some party favors?
I made paper turkey glasses, so may people have been asking where did you get the idea?
It started with Thanksgiving apparel and having a Photo Booth and ended with these perfect party treats! Honestly my mind goes somewhere and ends up with an amazing idea.
So I found some ray ban cutout glasses had some illustrator fun and came out with the perfect thanksgiving treat! 
Honestly, what was I thinking? Everything hilarious that's what :)



Maybe I need some angry eye pie glasses.  Who knows, maybe I will never make something as radical again.  I would like to claim myself as a genius, but I've probably just watched way too many episodes of Gilmore Girls recently.



I just made a template and cut it out with scissors, my friend later went in with a sharpie to fill in the white if you want to make it look fancy but after cutting out 19 of these my hands hurt.

TBT: GRIMES!

Did I ever mention how I am obsessed with this lady. She not only has super cool style, music and art style but she has awesome advice on being a boss. Can I just say she is super smart too? She was studying Neuroscience. Bless her heart, I would never be that patient to do something so tedious.
I did a drawing video not too far back, but just enough to throw back.
I think why I love her so much, is she is so well rounded in the arts it inspires me as well.  Some of my friends say I do everything so there's that connection.  Besides having a full time job I try to do videos when I can. I also sew a lot and do side graphic projects for people.  Currently my list is reupholstering dining room chairs, designing graphic tees for my cousins kids, making a dress for xmas for my sister, making a leather bag, knitting my mom an infinity scarf, thinking what to make for my next video, and of course working full time in the fashion industry. So when I don't make videos don't think I am being lazy!


So now I will leave you with some fun images of her!
Hope you guys enjoy!! See you next time my little creators!!

What is in my purse


Purse Fossil $168  Wallet Madewell $78 (this style is no longer there but they have another one) Book $11.99 Lunch box $5.99 Thermos $20.99 Knitting (crafty planet MN)
Starting to work everyday you start to get essentials in your purse besides makeup and gum.  I might not have the girliest of things in there but it's what keeps me a live during 9 hour days at work. I would like to note I do have some lipsticks I have in my purse but I try to get eye makeup and foundation that lasts all day so I don't need to touch up.

Purse:  The issue for me is that purses can look big on me, because of my 5' height.  Making sure a tote isn't too big is important but it still needs to hold everything. I chose a bold red because I like a statement with my all black attire as well. This purse is a perfect fit for my life.

Knitting: My boss set up knitting Monday's and taught my team how to knit. It's actually been great, I can hold a conversation while working on my present for my mom! It also helps with traveling on the bus as well as waiting for a plane to take off.  The only weird part about knitting is so many people stare at you.  I don't know if they are intrigued, or thinking I'm too young to be knitting.  Whatever it is please don't stair at someone knitting, It's very awkward.

Stayfit lunch box: I love this little thing I don't normally bring hot lunches. It's nice because I put a half a sandwich in there and load it up with veggies. I like not using baggies or having 5 containers, and that I'm not throwing away all those things. I am not one for much variety.  All my life I pretty much had the same lunch and during college I didn't do that as much but now in my first job I got back into it! Bringing in a lunch is so much better than eating out, even though occasionally I like my Chipotle run!

Thermos: Another money saving tactic, I got this mostly because I didn't want to hand carry my to go mug walking to work. I can just toss this in my bag and go. No spills so far thank goodness!

The Happiness Project: This has been in my bag as a quick read if I don't have a book with me I probably will have a magazine.  I don't like to carry novels that you have to read carefully on the go because of interruptions.  I picked this up because it's a best seller.  I like a lot of the information, and it's the type of book you can skim!

My wallet: When I moved to Minnesota I had a wallet I could put my Iphone. When I started getting a Red Card, Company card, and a few other cards because I'm now out of college my wallet couldn't handle my adult life anymore. I upgraded to this wallet and it's been amazing.  I like the little front pouch for my punch cards, and it has a nice sized coin pocket in the back.  Plus the thick leather and simple colors are amazing! 

What is essential for you throughout school, work, life? Let me know!

Winter loving clothes I love!


Gap Dress $$ Woolrich Coat $$$$ Aritzia Leggings $$ Nordstrom Boots $$$ Viska Afton Backpack $$$

Winter is actually here! especially in Minnesota you need the right gear.  Last year I was shocked to know my battery was fine but one morning my car's gas froze! I have some Sorel boots but I did about 3 hours of research for the coat I really want.  I know the price point is pretty high but I would rather not get close to frost bite again while waiting for the bus.  I also own the gap dress and have worn it about 4 times in a few months so I love it.  I hope you guys like some suggestions.  I feel as if it is more important to try to look cute when you're in a tundra and stuck inside most of the winter.
