A crafty little atelier in a grey city

Happy Friday!

September 21, 2012

My standard uniform nowadays consists of yoga pants, a tank top and hoodie. The I-plan-on-going-to-the-gym look (“plan” being the operative word), worn mostly for the comfort. Once in a blue moon, though, I wish I had an opportunity to wear something fancy like the Valentino-inspired dress above. K saw it and said, “Is that a witch’s dress?” Hmmm…not the look I was going for.

Even if I’m not presented with ball gown worthy events, I could probably swing something fun like this:

I love painting outfits! I’ll have to do more of this.

I have another cute top + skirt combo that I made for K to share on Monday! Have a wonderful weekend, friends.

I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few day I’ve been swimming in nostalgia these past few days, wading through my blog and Pinterest board of the clothes I made for K, who is not so little anymore. what a wild, fun time that was! Remember the old school days of sewing blogs?? I’m back in deadline mode for a number of projects so sewing will have to be put on hold (though maybe I’ll get lucky and sneak in some stitching time). I’m also putting Instagram on hold for the summer, as I do every year. I’ll be back in September with some exciting updates! Have a lovely season, my friends! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
