fashion friday - elliera couture

welcome to the first edition of fashion friday! today i'll be highlighting elliera couture.

elliera couture is a local clothing line owned by arielle bergmann (who i happen to know!). all of her clothing is made in the usa on a small scale, making her garments unique and one of a kind. she designs everything from the casual tee to the stand-out-in-a-crowd cocktail dress.

here are a couple of my current faves:

3/4 length jacket

queen collared button up

you can check out her latest looks at: www.smashingdarling.com/store/elliera-couture

who would you like to see featured next week?

what's been going on

so...i know i've been m.i.a. for a while, but there has been lots going on that has prevented me from being on here.

i was in the middle of packing up my house for a move to a wonderful, perfect, beautiful home when i was told the owner isn't moving out. there for a while there was the fear of being homeless at the end of the month, but luckily the landlord here has agreed to extend the lease instead of giving the house to other prospective renters! now i am trying to reorganize this tiny house in order to get all the stuff back in that has been packed and moved out!

i am determined to get rid of ALL unnecessary items in this house so we aren't so crowded. but i am kind of happy to be living in a place for more that 12 months. this new house would have been my 7 home in 6 years, and have i mentioned that i hate moving and hate feeling unstable?!

i was very excited to be moving kitty's vintage into a bigger space, but now i must find a way to make the room i have accessable and usable instead of just piled everywhere like it was. it will look good when i'm done, just don't know how long that will take!

along with new shop updates, i will be reinstating movie monday, wwad wednesday and adding fashion friday where we discuss our favorite designers and whats new in fashion.

again, sorry for the absence and i'll keep you posted on the progress of the room!!
