No War just Outfit of the day!

Today is normally the day I would talk about Craft Wars on TLC and it's new prime time at 8pm eastern but I will do that tomorrow, maybe........ I've watched both last week and this week but I can't even collect my thoughts very well because I have been so busy. I also need to pack for NYC and sort out some more of my plans.

Instead I celebrate the completion of our kitchen with an Outfit of the Day post. Nothing particular exciting except for wearing some snazzy Alexander Wang T shorts I picked up in Chicago months ago.
 Amidst the the new kitchen where we still have days of organizing and putting away of utensils.

I am wearing
RCVA shirt from Milk Bar
Vintage Gnome Necklace from the Upperdeck of Substance
Alexander T Wang Shorts from Chicago
BCBGeneration platform heels
Hello Kitty Glasses from tobi.com (I also saw them all over Santee Alley in LA)
Pale legs courtesy of not enough sun.

This pictures shows the shoes off a bit better and I look kind of mean. I'm ok with looking a little mean. If you noticed the blonde hair it is just temporary till my hair cut and then once I have the bangs I'll know exactly where to put the color in to give myself maximum awesome. Since the show I realized I say the word "awesome" a heck of a lot, I can't help it, I tried, and I failed. I also realize I still need to write my incredible blog post on the things I learned from being on TV.

Just one more day till I am in NYC but my head already feels like it has gone on Vacay!
Do you have any travel plans this weekend? Andy cute digs that make you want to do an Outfit of the Day post for your blog?

Cheers!

Craft Wars

Hello!
So if you recall I had a super secret project that I was working on and was in LA earlier this year. Well the cat is now out of the bag!

I am a contestant on the amazing new TLC show Craft Wars! It had it's premiere this past Tuesday and will continue to air Tuesday nights 10pm Eastern on TLC.

You can see the video here where I am scurrying around with wood in my arms and making faces.


It is super exciting and almost dreamlike to have the opportunity to meet some amazing people who share the love of crafting and be a part of the first season of this new series! It is still surreal to see my face on TV for the current Promo's. I also got to meet Tori Spelling, Stephen Brown (Glitterville), Erica Domesk (P.S. I made this), and Jo Pearson (Micheals Craft Store)

Of course I can't ruin the suspense so you will all just have to stay tuned to see when my episode airs as well as what happens. In the meantime I'll be live Tweeting as I watch my fellow crafter's episodes air and I invite you to join in on the fun using #craftwars when you tweet at me "torn_angel". I'll do my best to give you a little blog write up the day after to get some more in depth opinions on the challenges the crafter's face!

Cheers!
