Cold Again

11 March 2009










Wow! There has been a sudden change in the weather and it is back to freezing again. The bi-polar weather is bothersome, but I can't say I'm not happy to have some more time to wear coats.


I decided to make these gray tights into knee-highs. I hardly wear them anyways, so I figured that even if I ruined them it would be okay. To make them stay up I used elastic hair ties around my legs and just folded over the excess fabric so that you cannot see them. I found it worked quite well. Oh and if this bow looks familiar, it is the one that I normally use in my hair :)
**EDIT** I somehow deleted my blog roll, so I am making a new one. If you would like me to link you, please please let me know! :)

Helen said...

the lipstick looks so good on you! i've seen a few people wearing knee high socks about, i need to get me some. they'd be the perfect thing for the transition between wearing tights and no tights!

Georgie said said...

What a great idea with the tights/socks! I have so many pairs of tights I forget I have and never wear.
The bow looks fantastic on the skirt, I was going to ask where you got it from :-)
ADD ME to your blogroll please!

I have a bipolar weather too. It's a pain. The wind chill makes it's impossible for me to wear a skirt. :(

Veyr good idea to turn you tights into knee-highs.
