I finally got a chance to wear this casual outfit. The shirt is a self-drafted pattern and the skirt is an upcycle from a dress that had wayyyyyyy too much cleavage showing. I cut off the top of the dress and just did a simple elastic waist for the skirt. I wore this for a […]
This skirt is one of the first skirts I had made after years of not making much at all for myself. That was probably about 5 years ago, I think. It is a pretty simple skirt in stretch apparel weight fabric with an elastic waist. The shirt was a “sorta copy” of an item I […]
Another morning for simple and not-too-fussy. This top was a rare clothing purchase this year. I have not been buying much in the way of clothing. I go into stores, but then come back out empty handed. I have enough clothes, so I am only really looking to fill in spaces that I think I […]
I was soooooo tired this morning. It was a very busy and full weekend. It is nice that it was busy and full of fun stuff, but Monday comes way too soon. Not enough sleep or enough time to get other things done that NEED to get done. Basically, that meant that I was not […]
I have been wanting to try to draft patterns more and more lately. It is a challenge, which of course does not always work out. This one was mostly successful. In drafting the gathering front piece, first I took my basic shirt block and retraced it, adding some extra so it would be wider […]
I am trying to get some depth into my closet and use pieces that I don’t normally wear. I really like how the pop of turqoise works with the brown colors. White top – Express Skirt – CAbi Vest – Charlotte Russe Earrings and necklace – JC Penny Shoes – Nine West Hair – Au […]
Another skirt that I made. Same style..repeat, repeat. The nice thing about having a pattern that you like, is that it only costs a few bucks to make another! Shirt — Many years ago…maybe JC Penny Skirt – Made by Me Necklace – Von Maur, Earrings – Lia Sophia Shoes – Carlos Santa Hair – […]
We went out to the Seattle area on a family trip a month ago, so I have been slowly trying to get back into the groove. That two hour time difference seems to affect us more on the way back than the way there. It has been a bit hard to get up in the morning, […]
Even though Anya really doesn’t need more skorts and tops, I decided to make her a few more. She wore this first one right away on a very hot day at the horse races. I made it for summer wear, but the black was not helping her out in staying cool. The skort is a pretty […]
Finally Friday, and casual day at the office. This means jeans for me. Even though it is going to be around 90 degrees outside, in my office it will be in the low 70’s with an air-conditioning unit blowing on me all day. Therefore, I shall freeze! These jeans are pre-kids, pre-pregnancy jeans. I always […]
