Elle & Ellen

I LOVE this cover of German Elle! These are my favorite colors- I just hope that I don't use them so much that I get sick of them...I don't think I'll ever dislike pastel and black together. It reminds me of a light purple eyelet dress that my sister had when I was in 7th grade. I used to borrow it and wear it with black tights and try to be like her! She had a magazine (Sassy or something like that) and there was a spread of a bunch of girls wearing pastel dresses and black tights. I wish I still had it!







I love Ellen Von Unwerth's photography. I almost bought a book of hers called "Revenge" when I was in LA and I wish I had. Her work is very creepy, pretty, and empowering. I feel like I want to start making masks too!

Photos from the BUST Magazine Craftacular

Here are some photos that Shannon took at the Craftacular. It was a lot less stressful this year- I think I'm slowly learning how to pace myself and not spread myself too thin, although a lot of that stress was alleviated by the help of my amazing and talented friends!! (who also brought wine and donuts....)

Come See Me at the BUST Magazine Craftacular!
