Rebel In Red

Rebel with a cause. This season we're showing off a little rebel in all of us. Think plaids, leather jackets and army boots and that spike collar you've been stashing away since your 'goth days'.

Leave it to Alexander McQueen the lead the pack in showing just how sexy and fun a little bit a trouble can be. I'm loving how the lines are placed at the waist to make the eyes move inward creating the illusion of a thinner waist. Now if I could only get someone to design bowls that create the illusion of my four scoops of ice cream not looking as big or as fattening as it really is.



Here are a few ways you can create the look at home. It's time to break out those black knitting needles, you know the ones with the skull tips, and let's do some bad girl knitting.
When life gets a little rough, knit back





What have you knitted or crocheted that brought out the rebel in you?
