feather in the rough.

a pleasant continuation of the birthday weekend.
kids' stuff in the morning,
followed by a birthday dinner with the family.
blazer and denim shorts from yesterday's shopping spree
with my sister.
(sister #1, from this point on)
originally wore my peach feathers, but i'm sporting a brown feather necklace that sister #1 gave to me at dinner. knowing that i like feathers, she (somewhat jokingly) made this out of some left over costume feathers. she also made some feather earrings, which i'll post later.

sister #2, on the other hand, always asks me for my wish list.
i'll tell her a few things just to give her ideas...
sometimes her interpretation is right on.
other times, not even close.
it's always fun to see what she comes up with.
i wanted some gold necklaces, and boy did she get me a gold necklace! picture to follow.

monday, i'm chaperoning mini-she's field trip to the water park.
oh. joy.


asian style mahi mahi
love the ruching on the sleeves.

    I am so in love with feather necklaces right now.
    I don't have one yet because I am still searching for the right one.

    Cute! Love the new accessories!

    How do you keep them from getting squished? That's my major concern for feathers. :[
