this post is all over the place

i'm tired and delirious from fried food and the sudden heat. so to begin, i have been going through a tomboy phase, peach cardigan aside. i wore a vintage denim shirt the other day that belonged to my dad, and i think he bought it at a thrift store. dad, if you're reading, i dare you to find a photo of yourself in this shirt. i should mention i wore this early in the week when it was still winter. this morning the temperature is climbing into the 80s...i also bought a swami records shirt, as modeled by the talented troubador dan sartain. he recently put out a few songs on third man records... i love his sound, early white stripes-esque low-fi with rockabilly. i don't know why hes been compared to johnny cash, other than his looks, but i digress...
this weekend i have a few sewing projects creeping out of the depths of my mind, maybe a nice strappy blouse? or another tulip skirt (i think indian summer is going to show up any minute). or something ornate and velvet like this (kate moss for topshop jacket). there have been numerous russian-inspired spreads lately which is fantastic because i love the embroidery. and i love to embroider. i've never attempted to embellish clothes with it, but there's a first for everything...
