It’s very liberating. It’s also a good excuse to buy more clothes.br /br /Hannah of a href=”http://www.madewithlovebyhannah.com/” target=”_blank”Made with Love by Hannah/a is one of my favorite DIY designers. I got her a href=”http://madewithlovebyhannah.com/apples.html” target=”_blank”Apple Pickin’ skirt/a (in Red Delicious) while I was living in Texas and it’s one of the most fun skirts I have. (The best part is the little worm peeping out of the apples!) Check out a href=”http://madewithlovebyhannah.com/” target=”_blank”her site/a: it’s all about mushrooms and gnomes, doe-eyed critters and ric rac. It’s like a black forest dream come true.br /br /She has one of those sites that I visit frequently, admiring and drooling but never feeling like I have a legitimate reason to buy another skirt. But after the last 2 visits I thought, who am I kidding? Maybe I should just buy something so I don’t keep coming back here over and over again. Part of the “problem” with the site is that I absolutely cannot decide which skirt to get because they are all so cute! So I didn’t, really. I can buy more than one, can’t I? Early Christmas/Birthday gifts to me, because I’ve been iso/i good this year.br /br /a onblur=”try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}” href=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M5dKBd5_Vfk/R12F7Y5s-aI/AAAAAAAAAFk/9r9ETaiudsk/s1600-h/winterwoods-skirts.jpg”img style=”margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;” src=”http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_M5dKBd5_Vfk/R12F7Y5s-aI/AAAAAAAAAFk/9r9ETaiudsk/s400/winterwoods-skirts.jpg” alt=”" id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5142413604870224290″ border=”0″ //abr /Most of my skirts are summery and I’ve been feeling like I really want to wear skirts now, even though it has been quite chilly. Hannah’s a href=”http://madewithlovebyhannah.com/winterwoods.html” target”_blank”Winter Woods skirts/a seem to fit the bill. Soft cotton velveteen in deep colors. I got one in charcoal grey — with a little felt skunk brooch! — and one in pine green that comes with a bluebird brooch. Ack! Now I just have to wait patiently for my goodies to arrive.
