Lace Peter Pan Collar.

So I started by lowering the neckline, it was just a tad too high for me.

Next, I chopped off the sleeves.


Then I trimmed the sides so that it fit better.
the only thing left was to cut, sew and attack the collar. (Not sure if you can see, but the collar is black lace.) 
Though this isn't the best  picture, it's the only one that really came out. What do you think? I love how it turned out. : D





A lamp in the making.

We've had this amazing lamp for a while now, but have never gotten the chance to give it a fresh coat of paint. Since I'm redecorating my room this was a perfect chance to give new life to this lamp.

Here is the lamp shade. I painted the wood butterflies and I also painted the what was once white lamp shade a wonderful, cheery blue.

Pursuing Purses

Hi! Ok, so I have this thing for making purses... I make one about every season, so it was time to make another, right? Sadly this one didn't turn out so great. Apparently I’m better at drawing them then I am at sewing them...


The good new is, every storm runs out of rain. (You just sang that, didn't you? Come on, I know you did) So I decided to show you some of the other purses I've made. :)



The top is fake by the way, it's really open on top, because (as I found out tonight) I've not that good at making a flap thingy.

This purse is kinda a mix-match (is that a word?) purse, but I like it. :)


 Now this one sort of looks like a diaper bag (not cool).... Hey is that the same button as on the first purse? Why yes it is! Hey, what else are you supposed to do with cute anchor buttons?! Anyways, I have way too many purses considering that I've made at least five more then these that I just showed you.... Anyone want a purse?? Hahaha Well, I hope you, dear reader, have a nice night\day!

Wish List for Spring\ Summer 2013

1. Coca-Cola shirt Here 2. Space tee Here  
First off, who doesn't love fun tees?! I just love them.. They look so cute with a maxi skirt and a cardigan. I just love Coke and well, being an Introvert I like the other one as well.....  


1. striped maxi Here 2. Gray maxi Here
        Maxi dresses are the best. You can wear them with a cardigan, tee, or button-front. They can be dressed up or down. Worn to the beach, to the store, or just for lounging around the house. Need I say more?

1. Here 2. Here 3. Here 4. Here 5. Here 6. Here
This year I plan on getting more bracelets. I like how bracelets help tie an outfit together. Oh, I also like the fact that they come in ANY style...

1. ruffle skirt Here 2. Blue high-low Here
I think it's great that maxi skirts are in. Just like maxi dresses they can be dressed up or down. They can be worn with tees, button-fronts, sweaters, and any other top you can find.
1. Red Here 2. Gray Here
Now that it's almost Spring ( 14 more days!) it's time to start bringing out the lighter cardigans. Ahem, like most other items on this list, these go great with everything! I will definitely be getting at least one this year...

1. Floral heels Here 3. Brown sandals Here
Fun heels are always a nice touch to any outfit. Now, would I go shopping in these? Maybe not, but who cares! These are too cute to pass up. ; )

1. Chambray Here 2. Pink shirt Here
Last, but not least are some button-fronts. Chambray shirts are becoming very popular this year. I love button-fronts atop a maxi dress.



I hope you enjoyed this and stop by again!

Pinterest Fashion: Fun Outfits


This first outfit would be perfect for a fun night out. I love this dress and the light blue accents are the perfect touch. 

First off, I love this owl sweater. I would wear this outfit for going shopping, because it's comfy yet stylish. And if you're feeling patriotic during the colder months this is a good way to wear some red, white, and blue without it being too obvious. ;) 


One word: Lace. The lace makes this outfit girly while the sweater keeps it from being too dressy. 


The plaid and sparkles add a fun touch to this outfit. You could also pair this with some flats, but who doesn't love fun heels? ;) 


I got all the clothing and accents from my Pinterest board here.

Have a great night!

Purple Refashion.


 I had a purple tee that I had made into a shrug, but since I wasn't too happy with it and I had an urge to refashion something it was the perfect victim! I mean it was perfect for the project....
 I had found this lovely curtain that my mom had stored away since it didn't really go in our house but was too pretty to just toss. (Ever feel like you should NEVER through away fabric? Ya, I thought so.)

I cut it more into a V after I took this pic, thus the lines.


 After sewing the V to the tee ( Hey, that kinda rhymes...)  I made a cute bow and stitched it  at the top.
Yes, I'm bathroom... Ugh, it's the only place with decent lighting and a nice big mirror... Anyways, here is the finished project! I love it. What do you think?


Have a great day!

Sunglasses

 Over the weekend I bought these cute sunglasses, the only problem was I didn't have a case for them....
(Yes, I NEED a case for them because my purse is always being tossed around and I already broke a pair because of no case *sniff*).
 So I took a small wooden box that was pretty light and made it my case : D
I added some pictures from old calenders and glued some fabric to the inside for padding.

What do you think? : )
