Don't forget I teach and work a part time job. Which may have to turn into No part time because I just can NOT handle the hours it looks like they are putting me on.

I'm also looking into teaching knitting and crochet Locally in Grandview. Perhaps knitting machine lessons as well.

Craftin Outlaws

I made it!

I was a bit hesitant since I didn't know my schedule or what was going on with the rest of my life but it's ok and I'm happy to have yet another opportunity to sell my wares. They were unsure about having me but I think they will see that I can hold my own and I will do alright. I only bring a clothes rack of things to show but what I really sell is my knitwear and scarves.

All the photos from the Lingerie Photo shoot came in today! As I type my photoshop is angrily uploading them all so I can see the full potential and do the cropping. It is so hard to decide what images to put into my look book because so many of them are amazing!

I'm a little late.

So this was my outfit from the Thursday photo shoot down in Cincy. It was for my lingerie trunk show coming up August 21st at Undone Shoe and Lingerie Boutique in the Short North.

I am wearing a yellow lace balconette bra from Victoria's Secret which you can see the straps here.
Tie-dye skirt worn as a dress from TJ Maxx for $20.00
Vintage Swan pendant necklace
White mossimo flip flops from Target $12.99
