Your daily dose of pretty: I can't stay away from this one

You know how sometimes you find something in a shop, and you want to buy it but you think you shouldn't, and then you keep going back and looking at it until either you give in and buy it or it sells out? Well this top is my something:



I am just so much in love with that back detailing.

The front's not too bad either:


*sigh* There's only so much temptation a girl can handle before she explodes, and then there's blood and guts and other unidentifiables everywhere. So really, to save on the carpet cleaning bills I should just go ahead and buy it, yes?

US$49.99 from Evilneedles on Etsy.

Your daily dose of pretty: Evilneedles

My daily search for prettiness leads me down some interesting paths, and sometimes at the end of those paths is a real treasure. Browsing Post War Trade (another project by the gorgeous and talented Amanda Palmer) led me to the one-woman Etsy shop of Evilneedles (who also gets today's prize for the best brand name). I mean just look at this dress (US$78.00):



Preeeeeeeeeeeeeeety - I love the red detailing at the waist.

Many of the clothes on the site are made from reclaimed and remnant fabric, including this cami (US$19.99):



Now if you'd asked me previously I would have been quite adamant that "pretty" and "green plaid" were not words that would ever be heard coming from my mouth in the same sentence. Just prove me wrong why don't you!

Evilneedles can be found on Etsy, and at the Evilneedles website.
