As an avid blog reader (design, fashion, humor, small animals - you name it) I've been thinking of instigating a weekly feature here on my very own blog.

A sort of habitat appropriate fashion and accessorie montage showcasing some of my favorite finds from my internet "window-shopping" of the past week.
Where: A day at the Natural History museum. (Something which Portland is sorely lacking.)


1. Snake Rib Ring by Macha Jewelry

2. The Warm Your Bones Jumper by Necessity is the Mother / Fancy Clothing


4. Miner's Bottles from Anthropologie

5. Danburite Bullet Pendant by scarletbegonia11


7. Tramway Heels from Mod Cloth

Tomorrow is the Skating with Scissors roller derby carft show!
Admission is free, there will be fantastic crafters, artists, and me! It's all day, so come down and hang out with me for a while. I'll have all the new clothes, most of the summer collection, as well as some brand new housewares you haven't seen before!

This Sunday was the photo shoot for the end-of-summer / pre-fall clothing (women's only, sorry gents!)


We had a great time and I love the photos! I'm working away to get everything up on the site and into the store, but in the mean time you can enjoy some behind the scene shots!



Hopefully everything will be ready by Thursday! I'll keep you posted!
