Friday Book Club #3 | Good Red Herring

Geek of the Week. Friday Book Club #3. I'm jumping the gun a bit with this Friday Book Club post because the book I really, really, *really*, want to talk about is released on Tuesday and if I can do my little part to send y'all to either your nearest bookstore or online store of choice, then I'll be happy. Let us discuss Lauren Dane. Last month she released Opening Up. But you know this had to be going somewhere right? Or why else would I be posting this early? And they’re not afraid to get dirty. Ever ...

Geek of the Week. So before I did a season welcoming hair chop (no worries, nothing drastic) I took these outfit photos - and I have to admit they turned out better than I expected! I've only ever worn this sweater layered over buttons downs, because for some reason I had it in my head it would be too tight to wear on its own. It's a vaguely retro inspired look in the end, with the pencil skirt and leopard pumps, and I can't wait to wear this to work. Anthropologie (also worn here. One last snow day.

Last month my mother and I spent a couple magical days at Disneyland. I wore one of the Pin Up Girl. Dresses, which felt right at home among the colors and patterns. I even got to see some Instagram friends, including Janey. Which makes time there even more special! Dress- Mary Blair butterflies dress in peach. Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses. C/o Smart Buy Glases. Rest of outfit is vintage. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mermaidens - Musings of a Modern Mermaid.

Vixen Vintage: April 2015

Star spangled man with a plan. A few weeks ago I found this great little jacket at a Banana Republic outlet, perfect basic for spring, right? Silly me, I can't have basics. A couple hours after buying the jacket, it all just hit me at once: Captain America, Swaroski crystals, glitter. It needed to happen. I found a pin at Disneyland. Last week (more on that later) that fits perfectly on the lapel, can't wait to wear my new jacket to see Age of Ultron. Marvel skirt c/o Munster Madness. Links to this post.

You can check out Le Mew. And be sure to follow on instagram. For new additions. Enjoy! Links to this post. Confessions of a former vintage addict {pt.1}. As you may have noticed I don't wear vintage the way I used to. It's still prevalent in my wardrobe but in a more modern way. This is due to a number of reasons, of course style evolves and lifestyles change, but a piece of it I'm sure a lot of you can relate to is vintage burnout. This is real people. For me, it just became too much. It weighed me...

Teaching My Boyfriend How to Sew & Screwing up Men's Boxers | BryceTheSeamRipper

Friday, July 22, 2016. Teaching My Boyfriend How to Sew and Screwing up Men's Boxers. The day my boyfriend asked if he could sew a shirt finally arrived! We decided to go with the McCall's M6044 pattern because we know it sew well (see what I did there? He actually did pretty well with the actual sewing. He does need to sew a little slower and get a little bit better at sewing straight lines, but for his first time he did really well. I was proud of him! As expected, my grandma and I had to whip out the ...

Lavender Shirt + Selling Flowers at the Farmers Market | BryceTheSeamRipper
http://www.brycetheseamripper.com/2016/08/sewing-a-mens-lavender-shirt.html
Sunday, August 21, 2016. Lavender Shirt Selling Flowers at the Farmers Market. I sewed another shirt again! I sew many shirts because shirts are the reason I learned to sew. I love long sleeve shirts, but I'm extremely picky and that makes shopping quite hard. Instead of struggling to find some I like in the store, I just make my own - and have a blast doing it! I, of course, used McCall's M6044 again, which you are probably sick of by now. But don't worry! Tucking the shirt in! Those are always so hard ...

Tuesday, August 30, 2016. Blue and White Long Sleeved Shirt. I sewed a long sleeve shirt again! My grandma found this beautiful fabric at JoAnns and I fell in love with it as soon as she brought it home and showed it to me. She did such a great job picking it out. Initially I was hesitant she wouldn't get something I liked, but she came through and did it well! The lighting was perfect for these photos! For some reason, we never get good back shots. But this is the back of the shirt, obviously! Sewing th...
