Just a quick thank you to everyone who helped me find good tights. My Foot Magic cotton tights came in and I test drove them today. Upon first wearing: hmm. And as they day went on, DAMN - warm, comfortable, and not itchy or pinchy! I've chucked my old nasty nylons and ordered 2 more pairs of these! Looks like skirts may be back in rotation...

The paradoxic thing about my latest wardrobe revival is that I'm throwing out almost as many things as I discover/rediscover. Which is good, because my closet is small, and I don't need to hang onto anything that really doesn't need to be there.

I've also worn more color and in more unusual combinations in the past 2 months than in perhaps the past 3 years (Academicchic.com has an excellent series on combining colors and patterns which has been helpful to me and I suspect other ex-goth sorts who are unclear on the concept) but that's another post.




I feel like with everything going on in the world, I ought to have something more substantial to say. This being the 5th of November, I watched Valerie's letter from V for Vendetta [YouTube] and then heard about Ft. Hood and so I'm in melancholy mood, but can think of no useful observations or answers.




I ironed the fabric and pattern for D.'s leine. With most of Saturday at home plus a holiday next week, it has the potential to go satisfyingly fast. We shall see.
