Because of this….
I had to create this. As always, the style in this Wes Anderson flick is ridic. Now you can rock it too (but a slightly grown up version). Links to all products below photo. Enjoy!

No rest for the obsessed
Twice a month you’ll be able to find me writing on fashion and beauty for The Penny Rose, a Santa Cruz style blog.
My first post is about a beauty delivery service I’ve fallen head over heels for, called Birchbox. Read all about it here.
In the the meantime, here are some of my favorite products Birchbox has sent me so far…
I hope you’ll follow along!
Put the izzy in busy
Jeesh life’s been nonstop this summer/spring/ALL THE TIME. Luckily much of that recent busyness has been filled with camping trips, city adventures, thrift store bouts, long beach days, and many mai tais. Unfortunately, it’s also been filled with intense work obligations and not enough sewing time. Sigh.
Somehow, I did manage to get one item done (and about six dresses half way done).
Introducing….the Koala Shirt!
Koala Shirt Front
Koala Shirt Back
Koala close up
The front is a vintage (never used) tea towel, 100% linen from Ireland. The back is an organic off-white cotton with a vintage blue zipper.
Waist: 30″
Hips: 42″
From Neck to Waist: 15″
I think this shirt would look great with a pencil skirt or fitted shorts. Out of all the stuff I’ve made, this one seems to me the most like something you’d find in an Anthropologie catalogue.
However, unlike Anthropologie, this item is truly one-of-a-kind. Enjoy!
