Concert. Ever.</p> <p>Went to see the Foos on Friday and it was amazing! It still has not sunk in my head that Dave Grohl was 4 feet away from me, looked at me several times and we took home one of his guitar picks. It felt like a movie. Of course, my movie comes with some decent whiplash, thanks to “white limo”. It was am amazing time and my hubby is a now converted hardcore Foo fan. Feels like it was weeks ago, not just 2<br/> nights ago. Nuts. I wanna see them again soon! Foos are the BEST.

Maurye lives down in New Orleans and has several fantastic Halloween parties to attend. I’ve made a costume for her in the past, where she wanted to be Carol Burnett’s version of Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone with the Wind”. Unfortunately, I don’t have and pictures of that and I didn’t take too many pics of the finished peacock outfit. But here’s how it went down.</p> <p>This was the inspiration photo…</p> <p><img height="645" width="430" src="http://www.twoheartstogether.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/thumbnail-peacock-430x645.jpg"/></p> <p>Those blue things on the corset? Guitar picks. Cool, huh? But we couldn’t find them that big (or that blue) so we went with sparkly blue foam that we cut into heart shapes. I mounted them onto a bustier and added the extra ruffle and halter straps for a little modesty. The skirt was made from like 10 yards of navy blue tulle that I made 4 separate tutus from and sewed them onto a skort from American Apparel. Stick in some peacock feathers et voila!  Maurye was going to go home and glitter up a pair of pumps in royal blue to match the bustier. All in all, I thought it came out great and might be making one for myself next year! It was a lot of fun to make!</p>http://www.jennygolightly.com/post/11401597680http://www.jennygolightly.com/post/11401597680Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:40:00 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsvhh4hlFy1qzmxi8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Spicy zucchini spaghetti (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a>)</p>http://www.jennygolightly.com/post/11291867160http://www.jennygolightly.com/post/11291867160Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:05:27 -0400
