Behold: The Most Horrible Maternity Garment of All Time

The pattern!

The straplessness!

The fact you’d have to get completely naked every time you had to pee!

can you survive in the same shirt every day for a year? my friend nathan did.

Simple, humorous reflection on going without, both Lindsay’s and Nathan’s posts. Among the things I’m considering fasting from this Lent are new clothes and online shopping.

Pattern-mixing in Harry Potter

I noticed, and assumed someone else noticed, and combed the interwebs, and found myself creepy and alone.

But I really love the pattern mixing that goes on in H, R & H’s wardrobes in the last few movies, Ron’s particularly. There’s an emphasis on texture and knits (and yes, wool) that I appreciate. It’s not just aesthetically interesting, but it makes sense to the plot: it’s cold and they’re camping much of the time, so of course everyone will pile on as many layers as possible, traditional fashion rules be darned. As a Floridian banished to New England, I get it.
