somewhere only we know ♥

great, helpful, informative sets that i will want to see for future reference (:

It’s obvious that what makes this casually eye-catching outfit “pop” is the spontaneously, colorfully printed scarf hanging surreptitiously from its owner’s neck. The boat shoes, the canvas shorts, the blue tank top, and even the wolf ring can’t compare to the sheer, naked brilliance of a beautiful silk foulard.
Printed scarves have long been one of my favorite accessories. In a closet full of wonders, recently I’ve peered down into the cubby containing the silks and cottons, rifling through the lot as if searching for buried treasure. Triumphantly removing from the thick a long floral number, I drape it comfortably around my neck. Scarves are the epitome of brilliance. Audrey Hepburn agrees.
The iconic, chic actress has made her mark on the world’s fashion scene, even today. Her multiple takes on the incorporation of scarves into the daily, sophisticated outfit have charmed the world. Audrey’s style is simple, exquisite, and exotically intoxicating. Take, for example, her necktie approach. Boyishly cute in her striped silk scarf, Audrey brings new meaning to modern style. Her famous headscarf captured the attention of the world. And in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” Moon River scene, she sports a lovely bandanna-scarf, even then looking her absolute best.
And the printed scarf is making a glorious comeback--on the runways, on the red carpet, and on the street. Some fans of the headscarf look include Kim Kardashian, Katie Holmes, Jacqueline Kennedy, Michelle Obama, and Her Majesty the Queen of England!
If you’re more into the preppy style, look only to Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister, American Eagle, and Aeropostale. These stories rule the expensive-modern-prep scene, and if you’re addicted to their often similar looks, they, too, have created their own take on the printed scarf (albeit plaid and navy.)
But, if you’re like me, and more of a thrift-store-hopper, or (polar opposite, I know) someone who only frequents designer shops and webstores, you’ll find lots and lots of cool and adorable options. It’s not hard to find a printed scarf in a world that has turned so dramatically in its favor.
 
It’s the people who make the style--and it’s the people who’ve chosen printed scarves.

she left to the sound of a quiet viola, and that was the sound of her absence. tears were shed and laughter was lost and the sky was filled with her brilliant color. and that was what was left of her; and that was quite a lot - but not enough for the unsatisfied friends that remained. each day they looked up at the sky and begged her to come down, but she knew she could not, because she did not belong with them. it had been her temporary home.

This is my set for the Battle of the Preppiest Setmaker, round 3. Yeah, yeah, I know, contradiction, this is a mosaic art set, but...I was assigned this type of set for this round (: It was really fun to make but also took a lot of time...I needed to use a beach summer picture as the main feature of the mosaic - & also the rest of the pictures used in the mosaic are mainly beach & summer pictures, too :P
 
Thanks & I hope this set places & I move on ♥

What group are you trying out for? Sassy Centaurs
 
Why do you think you are {group you are trying out for} worthy?;
I love making fashion sets - and Harry Potter has been my childhood. The first time I ever read the Harry Potter books, I devoured them in a week. I've never stopped loving them and never will - and I can show my Potter Prestige in the sets I make (:
 
What things in your life have you accomplished?;
What, besides reading & loving the Harry Potter books? Um, I've been to the midnight opening of the 7th book...moving on from Harry Potter things, I've danced in ballets, written a 10 page paper, & created a documentary - & oh, yeah, fallen in love with Ronald Weasley.
 
Have you ever gotten in trouble & why?;
I rarely get in trouble. Grown-ups like me, & I'm considered sweet & sensitive. But I'm crazy with my friends & I like to take risks. So...yeah.

those are my favorite sets that i've made in the past month (:
 
whats makes your sets unique?
the fact that actually really put time & effort into them. & that what i care most about is ME liking them. lol. but i think the thing that stands out the most with my sets is how they portray my personality - bubbly, kind & friendly--but also headstrong.
 
i'd love to be in potter prestige & the sassy centaurs because i'd love to show my harry potter spirit! (:
