How is it that 68 degrees feels so much colder some days? I'm doing web design today from home, and trying to find a warm place to work without turning up the heat or distracting myself with hot lavender baths. I've finally settled all bundled up in front of the fire with the gray alpaca blanket my sister and brother-in-law got for me from Peru this fall. I've pretty much avoided the living room since my little sister left after New Years for Chicago; home takes some time to get used to again without her. But now here I am with a cup (okay a pot) of Chicago's Metropolis Redline Express coffee and my day's work.
Here are some pictures from our Masquerade Ball @ Mt. Tabor Theater. Lately it has been just my style to wear the cheapest little clothes (above note the forever 21 dress) with way more valuable (albeit mostly borrowed) accessories. Thank god for Sahlia's most gorgeous jewelry (and her sanity-giving breezyness). About an hour before we needed to be completely ready to leave I went flailing over to her studio dramatically needing to be rescued with a feathered headdress, jewels (a freshly braided mixed-metal neckless which we wrapped around my wrist) and a glass of wine. I rambled on and on while we doctored the Urban Outfitters mask and cut the cloth flowers off the dress. I've come to the conclusion that it is impossible to get ready for an event without some drama. Best masks of the night in my opinion: Erica, Hannah and Ali and taking the total cake very bottom Ethan and Kerri with their dramatic homemade masks.
