One of those days
That's what today was. Everything and everyone was conspiring against me with slowness, disorganization, or just plain stupidity, and I found it really hard to get anything done. Well, I did manage to get something done, and listed a few of the new goodies in my Etsy shop. You can click that there link to visit, or click my Etsy Mini over there in the righthand margin (which also shows you the latest items in the shop, handy!) --->.
I had strawberries and Swedish cream for dessert tonight (from this Mark Bittman Bitten post), which helped a little. Because isn't anything Swedish always better than anything not-Swedish?
But I also plan to end my evening with a smile by viewing the wonderful Flickr photostream of * Eartha Kitsch *. She has an amazing home, style, and sense of humor. Her home definitely fulfills that Twin Peaks/cabin-y/lodge-y/1950s thing that I love so much. Go check it out--you won't be sorry!
And now on to the new goods! Here are photos of blouses and dresses coming to the Etsy shop this week. First, this 1960s linen wiggle dress by Alison Ayres:
The cutest and funniest chicken and herb print novelty print blouse by Cos Cob!
My FAVORITE dress of the Big Score so far, this olive and bronze polka-dot print taffeta party dress:
A silk scarf-neck blouse by Bill Atkinson, Glen of Michigan.
Creamsicle gingham shirtwaist dress.
Purple sateen ascot neck blouse.
Green and yellow floral print party dress.
I also photographed several hats this weekend. I'll post those tomorrow.'Night all--here is to a better, more productive day tomorrow!

Hats!
Tonight, the long-awaited Hat Preview!
But first I want to share with you my latest favorited Etsy item, from meekssandygirl's shop. She makes gorgeous crocheted cashmere necklaces, corsages, and sculpture. I found her when one of her necklaces was featured on the Etsy front page this afternoon. I just love the colors in this lemon necklace:
Cute fedora-like number by Jan Leslie Custom Design.
Daisy mesh pillbox by Amy New York.
Pretty beige straw wide brim by Maxine Hats.
Floppy mod lemon yellow hat, An Everitt Original.
Will be adding them to the Etsy shop this week! Stay tuned...

Isn't it lovely? I want it! It's one of the simpler pieces. She also has beautiful, intricate poppy and bluebell necklaces. Go check out her shop!
And without further ado, Hat Preview! This 1960s peridot or pistachio green raffia bucket hat is already in the shop:
Cute fedora-like number by Jan Leslie Custom Design.

holiday wishlist--the scottish edition
It's that most wonderful time of year again! And I'm still obsessed with all things Scottish. So, in (temporary) lieu of a trip to Scotland, I'll take any or all of the following for Christmas, thank you. (Start shopping now if you want them to arrive in time for the holidays--all items with the exception of the last one come from Etsy sellers based in Scotland.)
Since I do my packing and shipping in our freezing cold basement all winter, I'm pretty sure I need a pair of these gloves, from seller clovaknits. They might be the only thing standing between me and a horrible Numb Hands Tape Gun Incident.
I love everything in 13threads' shop, but particularly this tailored yet romantic herringbone tweed jacket.
Tuwhittuwhoo has the best shop name on Etsy. And the shop is full of cute things, like this adorable appliqued tablecloth.
The quirky and very funny work in paulofnavarone's shop makes me smile. Even though his name reminds me of the Guns of Navarone toy that I never got for Christmas (see last year's wishlist post).
This Harris tweed houndstooth satchel from breagha is just the bee's knees!
I would have to keep it on a high shelf away from Lucy (of course, that's how she's used to seeing most squirrels), but I do love these wild-eyed herringbone baby squirrels from dragonhouseofyuen.
Aaaaand here it is, from thedoghouse, pretty much the perfect thing for a childless couple obsessed with their dog (erm, not that I know anyone remotely fitting that description): the doggy advent calendar! Brilliant.
Have I mentioned lately we're removing all the disgusting carpet in our house? Thus, I am obsessed with rugs of all sorts, but particularly with cute crocheted ones, like this from emmalamb.
And, finally, this is more of a need than a wish--I have got to get some Pastels cds.
