It was Gordana Gehlhausen from Project Runway. I said hello as she was passing, joking about our very similar, but uncommon names. She was very stylish and warm in person.

Last year for Halloween, I planned out DIY Three Little Pigs costumes with my good friends Lindsay and Maggie over a month in advance and it still came together at the last minute. Have you ever tried walking into a Halloween store the evening of October 30? It’s worse than Christmas Eve shopping!

The craftiest part? I made my cape out of a Read the rest of this entry »
