Once Upon a Time...

Is anyone watching this one with me?  Lu & I are LOVING it.  It's our new "must see".  In fact, it's on the "I think we need an Amazon Season Pass" list.

If you haven't been watching, in a nutshell...Prince Charming and Snow White send their baby daughter through a "portal" of sorts to another time/place to save her from the evil queen.  Meanwhile the evil queen sets a curse upon all of the kingdom that deposits every character into present day Storybrooke, Maine.  Only, they have no idea they are fairytale characters.  They have no memories of their actual existence...they're just in limbo.  Emma, Snow & Charming's baby, is the one who can break the curse.  Only, you guessed it, she has no idea who she is either.

It's been a ton of fun so far, and we get excited when a new fairytale persona shows up.  This week it's Cinderella.  It's smart too...the storyline isn't linear so you have to pay attention.  I appreciate smart TV.  (I appreciate dumb TV too. heh.)

I also appreciate gratuitously good-looking heroes.  Mmmm. Charming...

But what has really captured my fancy (shocking) is Mary Margaret's wardrobe!  (MM is really Snow White).  Just a few lovelies she has worn in the first 3 episodes...

Dying for this lacy top.  Dying.

Anthro dress!

I've been finding myself searching for a knit pattern similar to this top...BWOF? BS? HP?  I've seen it somewhere.

Mary Margaret has this sweet, schoolteacher vibe (totally opposite her true characterization of Snow White...show you that another time).  I love the cardi's and florals.  Especially with the pixie haircut!  Too cute.

Fangirly goodness.

Ahem.

The top that inspired this post...allover lace, deep teal cardi. Yum.

Paired with the cutest pants (cords?  Can't tell!) and GAH.  SHOES.  Must have these shoes.

And how about this cute top...  in lawn??  I have some lawn stashed.  I've got that Simplicity top that is very similar, or the HP Sunshine top.  both would need a placket alteration. 

Yup, lots of inspiration to be found here, which was sort of unexpected!

My weekend plans consist of finding a birthday gift for my sister... not the easiest task.  And, hopefully stitching.  I had a cutting-out fiasco last weekend that I don't even want to talk about. It killed my mojo, let's leave it at that.  But I think I'm over it and can proceed to the nearest sewing exit...

Have a good weekend!

The End.
