I woke up at 4:30 today and have already had a few cups of coffee, so I am having a very hard time getting my hands to keep up with the pace of my brain right now!  I am just brewing (get it coffee/brewing?!?) with excitement for a new designer that I found, believe it or not, in the ads for Bust Magazine.  This gal speaks to every little facet of my heart–she likes retro design, she interned for Nanette Lepore, her garments are fair trade, she uses natural fibers (curse you poly blends!) and she also donates 5% of her profits to Habitat for Humanity.  I feel like we need a moment of silence to celebrate the lovely Katherine McConnell.

Here are a few of her dresses that could also be in the running for my celebration week. (Although you do realize that I am going to purchase said dress at the last minute and probably have to overnight it just so I can wear it!)
