life lately

It's been very pretty on campus lately--even lovelier than usual (and that's saying a lot since my college is consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful campuses).  Spring is such a treat, especially in the northwest.  Finally, all the rain seems worth it, as the flowers come to life.  This week has started out very hopefully--sun all day!  If only it could be this wonderful without the 24/7 rain the majority of the time.  It's a trade off, I suppose.  

Other things:

♥  My team (me and two of my coworkers from the costume shop) won second place at my school's "Historical Project Runway."  It was a blast!  They made it as much like the real show as they could (with obvious amendments, like only being given 15 safety pins, a pair of scissors, and some tape), with hilariously spot-on comments from the judges and "Tim Gunn"... We chose the Industrial Revolution for our inspiration.  The skirt was made with a yellow table cloth, water, coffee, sugar, and dirt.  The two "surprise challenge" items that I grabbed from the pile:  a lampshade (used as a petticoat) and a swatch of fabric (used as waistband).  We "thoughtfully" used the accessory wall by adding the brown belt.  It was pretty great.

♥  This week is my last full week of school before finals fun.  Almost two years of college down, two to go.  And 1/4 of that will be spent in London!





































♥ Yesterday was Izzy's 5th birthday.  My mom and sister sang to her and sent me a video, and later we Facetimed.  What a dog!  She is too cute for words.





































♥  My cute little sister made this of me on an app.

♥  This week is tech and dress rehearsal for the senior thesis show I helped costume.


♥  I wore these adorable tights from my mom for the first time today!


Happy Earth Day!  Hope your week is lovely.
