It's Been A Long Time

Wow..... it feels like ages since I've made an entry on this, but I've figured its high time I put forth an effort. I've been super busy with the holidays and, I've also been getting a steady amount of orders for my Slocks (woohoo).

Christmas was a treat this year. I received some Jessica Simpson boots that I love, a Gucci Bag with a belt to match, and my long coveted grey Uggs!

I can't complain, but I sure do hope 2009 is a better year for me (career and relationship wise)!!!

Oh no.....

I love Victoria Beckham, but this picture does NOT make me want to purchase a pair of her jeans, as she is shown modeling her DVB line.

It's Been A While

OMG!!!!! Its been some time since I've posted a new entry. I've been super busy with work (the 9-5, not Etsy unfortunately). I did, however, find a few moments to make these new "slocks" as I like to call them. They are crochet slipper-socks. They are so comfortable and warm. I made my daughter several pairs and she seems to enjoy wearing them.

I also had a chance to listen to the radio this morning, and heard one of Ms. B's new songs "Single Ladies." LOOOOVE it. Her other single though, "If I Were A Boy", not so much. Maybe it will grow on me. Toodles.

Double Trouble

I posted a new item today on my Etsy page. My mini model was not cooperating with me. You can see her screaming at me in the picture. I have to take some new pictures when she's in a better mood. My computer has also been acting up for the past couple of days. I just got it last year for christmas and its already being strange. Luckily its still under warranty.

So Sad

In case you didn't hear by now, Travis Barker and DJ AM were seriously injured in a plane crash in South Carolina late Friday night. They were the only two people to survive. There were four other people on the plane who died. Let's say a prayer for a safe and speedy recovery for the both of them, and RIP to the others.

Oh My Gaaa...

Forgive me for my obsession but this girl is FIERCE!!! Here is my girl Rihanna in Paris. Who cares if some people say she can't sing, this girl can DRESS.

So I haven't posted a new entry for like a couple of weeks now. I've been super busy. First, I finished and sent off my goodies for the Home of The Sampler. I also started to work on some knit and crochet items for the fall/winter. I recently finished this neckwarmer and posted it in my etsy store. I love it. It's warm and comfortable, and definitely an essential piece to complete any outfit ( at least I think so). I will be making more of these in different colors for sure!!

New Stuff

I posted a few new items on my etsy page this week. The hairclips are for a project I have for Home of The Sampler. I'm a contributor for the month of October so I'm working on some stuff for that. Busy Busy. And I just love the Hello Kitty fabric that I used on the new pouch. I bought it from Etsy shop fromJapanwithlove.

FYI

This is a poll done by Stylophane of the most searched brands on the 'net for July 08. Interesting isn't it. Which brands were you searching for?

Supa Fashionista

Check out this pic of Rihanna in Cali over the weekend.

Ever since her Umbrella, ella ella she has switched up her style and never looked back. Love it!!! I hope to get some of my accessories in her hands one day. (hopefully)

What a day......

So, I really didn't get much done today. I added this new item to my etsy page. I think its really cute, (I hope viewers on my etsy will think so too and make a purchase). Different shape, good color combo. I have some more fabrics in mind for this pouch and I will be putting those up soon. Still working on this blogging thing. I like checking out other peoples blogs. I see some really good ones everyday. This computer thing is so time consuming!!

OMG!!! I Did It

So, I finally set up a blog. I was debating for a while on whether I should do this or not. I didn't know what I would write about, and I was worried about who would read it. But then I said, you know what, just go ahead and do it. When I don't feel like talking to anyone immediately around me, I can just post. Aahh, cheap, easy therapy.

Just to introduce myself, my name is Desreen, and I am twenty eight years old. I have a wonderful, funny, beautiful daughter who's four. I love all things fashion and makeup. My blog will be about me, my journeys as a craftnista, my two etsy shops, and anything else I want to talk about.

I'll be back later; talk amongst yourselves.
