work is dominating. but, at least there is pretty stuff to 

look at? 

holiday is coming in and it is looking gooood. 

I am totally obsessed with the emil jacket. 

 and this swim print for spring 12!!

 amazing silks for your enjoyment for Spring 12, 

 giant tents,

 and yummy sleeves.

 via.

what is so sick about this one is how badly I want it. 

via. 

 And!! (mini drumroll)... the Split Girl Fall 11 fanny. 

There are a few things going on in this picture. 

1.) the fanny. its two available prints. 

this here fanny is on its way to Emily!!

2.) the vintage backpack that is also fantastic. 

3.) an attempt to make all jealous of my last supper 

framed by plastic portrait that I keep by my desk. 

 I am not a religious woman, but please please 

oh Jesus please let Emily do some form of  

tacky 'thirty days of my Fanny' blog entries. 

And, of course, an Ava update. 

Girl loves her vintage fashions. 

for your viewing pleasure, 

three shots of pure excitement. 

Another incredible piece that made it 

out of the attic after 30 years. 

ps, are you reading the Split Girl blog?

obsessed!

I am feeling psychotic about the color navy. 

Oddly enough, I am also assembling a color story for 

next spring right at this moment. 

Kind of like grocery shopping on an empty stomach. 

Well, sorry ladies. Looks like sailor dresses and matching 

sailor hats for you next spring. 

Anyway, I have been shopping on Allen Company again. 

 My new navy boots. 

another Ruth Saltz handbag.. love those little lion heads. 

navy. 

I think I will like a nice navy swimsuit next year? no? thoughts?

Off to a tradeshow tomorrow. I will take some pics and share. 

xx!

bad behavior

bad bad holiday behavior. 

bad blogging. 

bad communicating. 

bad worker goes to work in one outfit and leaves

in another. 

cute color blocked knit top though, right?

 the holiday has brought the realization of 

the brilliant egon von furstenburg sweater we 

have all been waiting for, though.

note the real deal on the right and the new colorway 

on the left. bright poppy and new wood buttons!

yay for Paige. 

 and of course there was holiday crafting!

psychedelic santa anyone?

 homemade salt and flour ornaments. 

bummed I cut off Ava's 'sleeping bag with pillow'

creation at the top left. 

 happy holidays from Christmas Yoda. 

New year's resolution to be a super good 

blogger, among other things to be 

discussed later. 

jumpers

Hi peops! Hope you are keeping abreast

of all of the new activity over on the Split Girl Blog. 

Today there are some dandy shots of 

a few of my new holiday goodins. 

This below piece is my fave. 

Black and cream goodness. If you were able

to jump on this morning, you would have seen a 

very unfortunate and pantless (with tights)

photo of me that I quickly removed. ha!

 Speaking of festive holiday jumpers, 

feast your eyes on what I found while shopping yesterday!

 The back of this sweater really takes it to the super crazed

middle age lady who likes Disney level. 

It reminds me of Harriet from small wonder. 

There were many hot sweaters out yesterday. 

This one was neon and heathered. Had it been 3 sizes too big

for me, I would have bought it. 

Life is busy as we prep for trade show season to start in 2 1/2

weeks. Hope everyone is having a good holiday!

woo!

Here I am! I am here. I am forced to use 'normal' type 

size, as my work computer will only allow me to post

in miniature fashion. Hopefully, 'normal' will work. 

Busy busy busy shooting Split Girl. 

Remember Old Goode Things?

It is still old and very very goode.

I will show you a little glimpse of 

Split Girl Fall 11 to wet your appetite...

Can we DIE over this dress together?

It is silky and amazing. And, has pockets. 

Thank goodness for practicality. 

And, dirty bathtubs.

have a good weekend!! Miss everyone!!

pretty pictures

Before officially moving on to Christmas, 

it's December btw, pretty pictures of 

Fall on Whidbey Island. 

 Fall on Whidbey is cooooold. 

the farm... loganberry wine and pie. mm

 Langley.. hideous place. 

 Ava got kind of festive for the Thanksgiving holiday..

 And, we finally got on the train float in the Los Altos 

Parade of Lights. Thanks to Meg for helping us 

live the dream!

totally avoiding work for a week plus two days was totally awesome. 

Now, I must get to it. 

December!
