Empire waists are flattering on everyone. I like this dress that hides the empire waist in a charcoal gray sheath dress. Add in the silver beaded embroidery on the hem and you have a dress that I think would make a good Christmas dress.

Dr Horrible's Sing a Long Blog was awesome not just for the music (though that was neat), nor just the character (NPH as Dr Horrible=win!) but for the overall package. From the first thing fans saw (the design on this shirt) we knew it would be fun and crazy, but simultaneously we knew that wasn't all it would be and boy, was that right.

Spectator shoes and I get a along wonderful. I love the contrasting colors and the cutouts while the spectator shoes love getting picked first out of the closet every time--they only have to fight amongst the other spectator shoes to get picked first. Considering how much I adore black and grey and considering that flats and I always get a long, these shoes are a sure bet.

These are my current running shoes. I love them. I have funny shaped toes (I say it's from wearing pointy toed shoes so long) and so I normally decimate the sides of other running shoes. New Balances fit my foot nicely and it takes a good long while before I wear a little hole in the side of them (inevitable in all my shoes sadly). And did I mention they are comfy? They are.

As much fun as I might poke at Nike for their rainbow bright shoes (which actually are oddly appealing), I do like their running shoes (Nike is ranked right after New Balance for number of runnings shoes owned by me). And these look like good solid running shoes that'll, pardon the pun, go the distance.

Help! I feel like I'm caught in a engineer's Escher inspired nightmare! It's kind of a catchy nightmare though. With it's vibrant colors and bold lines, it's a casual shirt that celebrates the polygons!

I complete approve of this model's outfit though. She really is rocking the halter top and jeans. This casual halter with it's bandeau styling is everything I could want. It's drapey, it's summery (though it'll leave a weird tan line) and I can just imagine the smell of summer looking at it.

It's a little early to be looking at winter clothes, I know. But I saw this Victorian Maiden OP and was in love! It would be a perfect special event dress. I'm loving the gray, but then again I always love gray. Also, if you are going to event where your lolita wear wouldn't be welcome I think this dress (and a lot of Victorian Maiden's stuff actually) can be made to walk that line gently.

It's no secret I love retro things. This wool fishtail skirt would be something I wanted if it was just grey wool, to add appliquéd flowers to the 'tail' make it an unforgettable skirt. Plus, it's made to your size and custom garments always look better than off the rack.
