From the creators of the book Where Women Create, the magazine brings to light even more artists and the places where they work. I brought it in to expand your creative universes.

And plaids.

That’s it. I’m pooped. Back to work on Wednesday. Ready to sign for Mr. UPS’s deliveries. Are you?!

make room in your closets!

Chicago. Stylemax. I came. I saw. I conquered. And I think you’re going to fall fast and hard for the clothes and accessories I found. Jackets and tunics and tops and shoes and purses and scarves and belts and hoodies and burn-out t’s and dresses and all great for layering and super duper perfecto with the leggings we all love!

Here’s a few pics to whet your appetite. Hugest apologies that the images are so bad….the mart’s lighting yellows everything and washes out the wonderful colors and details. I guess you’ll just have to trust me ;)

Handmade belts and slip-on oxfords. Gorgeous. Yum leather. Wonderful details. Unfortunately you can’t tell at all from this photo. Great belts!

belts_opt

Comfy soft cotton t with a big pink heart right in the center, designed by these twin sisters. Wonderful women! Great line of t’s! You’re gonna eat them up, I just know it!

What a week! Many of you stormed Heavenly Metal after receiving this week’s email announcement and look who left with something new to wear:

Well, gals you just kept showing up all week! The gals at Google Ann Arbor are gonna google over this great work outfit!

Is this doctor material? Just the right outfit to wear to the hospital holiday party — and maybe draw some attention from a nice attending doc. Do we LOVE the ruffle dress in white? It works in aqua too!

And then there’s the really comfy, really cozy perfect-for-this-weather sweatshirt-weight cotton tunic. I brought in a few more in black. Pat thought that was a great thang!
