Look What I Made - Part 2

I had this old scarf - I bought it in high-school on clearance at American Eagle.

I liked it, but never EVER wore it. So I saw this idea and fashioned my own ruffle shirt.

I think it's kinda fun!

He Posed like that all on his own...

Voila! My first grown-up Christmas Tree!

I might find the motivation I need to get out and exercise (which is so difficult this time of year!)

Cotton is Cool?

I really like this song.

I really like Zooey Deschanel.

Who knew Cotton could be Cool?!

It seems like everyone has a blog these days.

(From People.com)

Even Gwyneth Paltrow.

Her blog, Goop, is great. Each week she posts newsletters on a variety of topics -- cool restaurants, fashion trends, good books to read, recipes, advice -- everything!

And she really has good taste.

It might just a great PR ploy, but I really enjoy reading it!

Check it out!

Happy Friday!
