head to toe

A couple of things worth noting:

First, I made something new for Hum and it shall be called the shvest.  I took a too-large creamsicle colored western shirt from the thrift store, sized it to fit, and made a vest out of it.  It was a really fun project!

Second, Hum wears striped socks every day.  I'd like to think this is a metaphor for how he lives his life... wild, colorful, and never a dull moment (which is true!).  I have a hard time finding striped socks, but Trucker Deluxe has an amazing selection! (want a trucker deluxe discount?  read below...)

Third, I sewed on knee patches to Hum's jeans.  He always wears a hold in the knee of a perfectly good pair of pants.  I'm loving the denim on denim patch.

Fourth, I bought that denim-y shirt at Ross last fall, but it never fit quite right.  It was too flow-y at the bottom and the sleeves were too tight.  So I trimmed it up to fit better and feel a little more spring-y too.

Fifth, those lacey peach shoes that I'm so crazy about?  They're blowfish shoes.
