I am a lady from Mars, and I can unscrew the stars



This is the outfit I mentioned on my twitter as making me feel supercute. I've been looking for a sweater-dress/long tunic ALL FREAKIN' WINTER and I finally found one. Luckily, here in VA it appears that winter is never going to end. Everywhere I looked I found sweater-dresses and tunics galore...but. But, they nipped in at the bottom! A curvy girl like me wants something with a little flare at the bottom, not something to point out my thighs! But wonder of all wonders, I found this on a Wal-mart sale rack. Sadly, black was the only decent color, or I would have a rainbow of these dresses. And this outfit is as comfy as pajamas!

I also change shoes at work. While at work, I usually wear these little slippers that were my shoes for my modern dance shoes back in undergrad back in 2003! You can see the wear, but they've lasted a very long time for little leather split-sole shoes. Particularly since I don't take any care of them.




And these are the shoes that I wear outside of work. Vaguely workman like, but sort of cute.




Dress - George
Leggings - Faded Glory
Slippers - Capezio
Shoes - People Movers
Teapot Necklace: made by me! and fantastic spoon ring!


Question: who are some of your favorite singers that make you think?

I love Regina Spektor, Ingrid Michaelson, and the group Ludo. They all have crazy weird lyrics that take your mind to really neat, sometimes creepy, all together new places.
