The POPular crowd

So, as previously noted, PopShop was last weekend! It was fun and exhausting and packed–roughly 250 people came to check out the space and creative goods for sale!

The magazine very adeptly combines fashion and home decor,...

Sew Good

I finished another project! I bought this satin brocade suit at one of my favorite thrift haunts last year, and realized I hadn’t taken full advantage of it due to the ill-fitting skirt. In a rare fit of domesticity, I decided to take it in myself instead of spending another 11 months pretending I’d take it to the tailor “someday.” Since I’m not clever enough to thread my sewing machine (the whole bobbin-catching-thread thing never...
