Change of menu?

So I realize that I don't update this blog as often as I'd like to, and while it's partially because of time constraints, it's also because, as much as I love earrings, the rest of the blogosphere doesn't so I end up rarely seeing specific instances of earring awesomeness even when I'm looking for it. My other blog is a little more surrealist, Mad with Art, but a middle ground between the two might be the way to go. I'm into a lot of facets of the art world, from fashion to interior decorating, to cinematography to things I see just in life that make me smile or inspire me, so I think I'm going to "close" this blog and link it to a revamped Mad with Art full of all sorts of goodies.

So see you over at Mad with Art!!

Update on B's tiaras.

B has a viable Etsy shop for her amazingly cheeky tiaras, as well as her knitted wares. You will definitely enjoy the whimsy! ENJOY IT!

Smooch.

I loved this outfit, despite some people disliking the tights. Ah well! C'est la vie!

Quick update.

Hey, I will try posting some new stuff tomorrow when I have better pictures. I just got some ridiculous fishing lure/pineapple-like ones, as well as some kickass dinosaur tooth things, but the pictures I took turned out less than stellar (and I looked like shit).

Taking a moment now to recognize and acknowledge that I've been obsessively watching the Fatshionista Flickriver, in addition to reading the LiveJournal community where it all started. As a member of this "plus sized" community (so plus it's pretty much average for most American women), I find it inspiring both in aesthetics and in esteem. I've seen some truly fabulous outfits in this stream, as well as daring ensembles, and I want to try my own even beyond the scope that I do now. All with some cute earrings for my own personal pizazz.

See you soon!

Tangent.

In another bout of non-earring fashion, I would like to showcase the fine tiara-making skills of B. This is her sister modeling her latest creation, possibly to be known as Beowulf or Butch.






...they are amazing.

Shameful, shameless.

So I know it's been long time no blog! And it's not like I haven't bought new earrings or read my regular blogs, buttttt, you know. I'm shameful. School starts tomorrow and I'm going to recreate this look that I snapped a week ago, though I've since cut my hair so it's not quite true to life!

I don't know what it is about hoops, and it probably has to do with their versatility that they are always chic, simple and appropriate, but I've really been noticing them as a choice versus a more elaborate earring. Cameron Diaz's look in In Her Shoes always has hoops, and over at Decorno she listed her travel uniform and its accessories. I think they're comparable to pearls in that they can be a simple, yet effective accessory to an outfit.




These are the smallest hoops in a pack of three I got. The largest ones touch my shoulders, and are really only reserved for laughs. I don't car for small hoops, though. I'm silly like that.

Borrowed before bestowed.

So these are some of the earrings I got for my mom. I am kind of in love with them. But, alas, she needs more fabulous earrings!
