In just a few hours I will be picking up N from the airport! She is flying all the way here to spend a week with me and M (another high school friend who lives in DC). We have so much planned-museums, the zoo, the monuments at night, a capitol hill tour, shopping, too much to list! In honor of N's arrival here is one of my favorite K and N photos. This was taken Halloween weekend my sophomore year. For some reason I was back in CA for a weekend and went to visit N in Santa Barbara. Well even though it wasn't actually Halloween (I think it was the 28th or 29th) everyone was dressed up, drunk, and parading in the street. We actually got yelled at by a lot of people who were confused by our "costumes." While I may appear intoxicated I drove back to LA that night so I am just doing my best drunk impersonation. NOTE: I am also wearing my favorite Ralph Lauren Pink Pony hoodie (that I received on my birthday just days earlier) that was subsequently STOLEN off my rolling suitcase at the airport a couple of months later.
This weekend I started a special, semi-crafty project. As soon as I saw the Tommy Hilfiger pink and green anchor sheets, I knew I had to have them, especially for the TJ Maxx price. One problem: I don't have a twin in DC so I had to find another use for my sheets. I decided to make curtains (I meaning my sister). They are still a work in progress. My sister is going to use her sewing machine on them because I didn't cut in a very straight line (hey, it's hard cutting fabric!).
Detail (I had a picture of the actual curtains but hit save when I cropped to show the detail):
Have a great week everyone!

Okay the curtains are super cute and old school photos are the BEST! Hope you have fun this weekend :)
ReplyDeleteCute picture! I think of you every time I see those sheets. I feel bad- should have emailed you- because my stores had them in all sizes. They have dwindled now but if you "need" them let me know- I'm happy to check to see if they have the size you are looking for.
ReplyDeleteHalloween in IV?!?!?!? Only the biggest week in Santa Barbara! HAHA! Glad you could experience it!
ReplyDeleteHave better sheets *ever* been created that for you Miss Nautical? (We think not, but we could be wrong.)
