Fiber Fun Fest.

This past sunday I helped my Aunt Laurs James--owner and founder of the buisness beemiceelf: check her etsy shop at www.beemiceelf.etsy.com--at the annual fiber fair in Torrence, CA. I personally love craft shows/fairs. So I was completely stoked to go.
I spent the entire time before the doors opened, walking back and forth from our booth to the kitchen. I swear; I ate/drank everything they had to offer. It's best not to offer me something for free. Because I will take it. Also, if I ever visit your home, I am going to raid your fridge. It's best to just accept that now.

Coffee.

Tea.
Or.

Me?
Cute picture I know. Here's some pics from the Fiber Fest.









My aunt taught me how to spin yarn.


So I did it during the "fashion" show. You know the kind of clothes old ladies make. Funny How I was the only one over the age of twelve and under the age of twenty-seven there.
These old ladies came up to me and kept telling me how nice it was to see a young woman creating things with her hands rather than texting on her cellular phone. They made me giggle when they asked me where my phone was. I lost my phone the night before on my Halloween excursion into the local Chipotle restaraunt.

Photograph of the week.

This week's photo was taken just outside the 'Dalton Canyon Trail' in Glendora, California. A sky this blue is a rare thing here in Southern California, especially in the valley. This was a gorgeous October day. A nice change from the 100 degree temperatures, wild fires, and smogy skies we had all summer. Luckily these mountains were'nt burned. They are my faveorite to cycle and hike on.

From the walls of tokyo.

My best friend is moving to Tokyo. I am jealous even though she's none too ecstatic about the move. I am beyond excited for her; the moment she told me I started googling everything about tokyo. Everything is so cool over there. So I found some awesome pics of Japanese style: not the kind of eccentric 'harajuku-wanna be-anime-doll' fashion. But real bad ass street style.

This is Harajuku style. Just not a-la Gwen Stefani.

I am in LOVE with that tote bag: "Punk in the afternoon" haha.

Everyone knows I love nothing more than a floral skirt and rock tee love pair.

As a member of the Kiss Army...I must get her shirt. And the perfection of her hair puts my bob to shame.

Okay, fine...It's neon. Not a fan of neon since walmart sold this hideous neon lace bodysuit lingerie thing that literally made me want to burn the whole building down. Hideous. Plain HIDEOUS. But this girl looks adorable.

Ah! I love mixing prints. Only I can't get away with it because I am a 5'7 America Jew. I just look ridiculous. The shirt she is wearing is radical. I must find one.

I love his bow tie. It would be nice to see a guy wear something other than baggy jeans and t-shirts. Blegh.

Hug fan of layering. Love the red in her hair.

Just had to point out the doll necklace. And I'm not sure but I think her earring is a traffic light.

This shirt has a sort of Quentin Tarantino feel to it. At least to me it does. And I LOVE Quentin Tarantino.

Thats just a few pics of the radical style no white American could EVER pull off. Especially not yours truly. Looks like I'll continue google stalking Tokyo for now. I'm hoping to jump the pond and visit her one of these days. But for now I am content with surfingthe internet. And kudos to me...thanks to my bud's big move...I am now all inspired by Harajuku and Kawaii.

Photograph of the week.

Taken about a month ago at my parent's house in Moberly, Missouri. They had this huge ring of mushrooms growing in their back yard. Each day they grew bigger and bigger till they eventually browned and died. This photo is of them at their prettiest.

Happy Birthday.

Lets all wish a very happy birthday to my friend Robert Mahr. Lover of all things medieval and Renaissance festival related. I thought these bad ass dragon cupcakes would make his birthday extra sweet.
