Tie It Up With A Bow



Now that the holiday season is fast upon us, I'm starting to gear myself up for the onslaught of shopping and gift wrapping that will shortly ensue.

Pulling out a box of up-cycled holiday bows, I couldn't help but play around with them. I put bows in my hair. Tried some out as possible pins for my black trench and even considered attaching some small ones to the front of my heels to make them look more festive.

While I'm here playing dress-up with Christmas wrapping, I'll leave you with a few bow-inspired looks.

What Does The Fox Knit?









What does the fox say? A lot, apparently. The music sensation by Ylvis has reawaken a whole new appreciation for our red and white tailed friend. And just in time for winter too. Here is a list of winter wear items to knit or crochet with foxy features to help you re-enact your own version of the, "What Does The Fox Say" video.

Why not this lovely sweater designed for the more sophisticated fox. I can totally see you walking into the board meeting wearing this number.

It's going to be a busy holiday season. Why not carry all those gifts and holiday cards in this foxy bag.

Keep those fingers warm while tossing those snowballs with this cute pair of mittens. If someone gets mad at you for throwing a snowball at them, just blame it on the foxes.

Finally, your foxy attire just wouldn't be complete without a fox hat complete with ears. This would make a great gift for all the little foxes in your life too.

So, I'll leave you with the music video to help you get in the mood for some foxy knits. Enjoy!
