Football Fashion

I know not everyone is a football fan.  Heck, it wasn't until we got our very own Houston Texans, that I became a fan myself.  Oh, I remember watching the Houston Oilers with my daddy, but when the teen years hit, I lost interest.  Friends and fashion came into my life and I pretty much never looked back.  Until now.....

I realize you can mix the 2 together! Not only that, but handmade and vintage fashion at that. Check it out:

My besties sans Bri who wasn't there when we took this.

I crocheted my beanie and attached a red, white and blue vintage star brooch to it. My ring and red wood bead necklace are also vintage. The gray Wilson's leather jacket I'm wearing is from my good friend Qiana from Eklectic Xplosion Vintage

I wore a plain white T that I decorated with the Patriots logo. I just looked up their logo on the internet, traced it with a pen, pinned it under my shirt and used fabric markers to do the rest. I layered it with a dark blue long sleeve T underneath.

Overall, we had a great time. I won almost all the end of the quarter pots...yay me!

The half time show was awesome. Madonna killed it. I heard she had even pulled a hamstring earlier in the week and STILL performed! I tell ya, I want to be able to rock like her at 53! Between her performance and the David Beckham commercial, my eyes were glued to the television! 

How did you spend your Super Bowl Sunday?

Flapper feather hair comb. Sorry ladies, I couldn't resist...it's mine!
