A quick update

I wasn't into blogging and internet in general this week, mainly because I spent the last week stalking after my boyfriend who is abroad again...and will stay there for a very long time, so I just hope he'll get back for my birthday...




Yesterday I did some bargain shopping which turned up to be a success with 8 garments for 250 shekels (about 60$)...And another surprise purchase that was not cheap and deserves a post of it's own...I consider it an early bithday gift for myself...But, I will show it here later :)

This is a short experiment I did with clashing patterns, at my grandmother's place...:) The dress is super light and sheer and it saved me from the heat on those days when all you want is to walk around in your bathing suit. Not too complicated or interesting but really fun to wear...Much more interesting outfits are coming soon!

Kisses!

DIY in process

This beautiful fabric was lying in my huge "to do something with it" pile for a while, until I decided to make a nice summer skirt out of it a couple of months ago, and then completely forgot about it.





Then, about a week ago I found it, and actually started the process! I didn't use any pattern because I hate patterns with passion and I can't do them well. When we started to study patterns at college, it suddenly hit me why most of the famous designers are men, it's like trigonometry or something! Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of girls who are amazing patternmakers but this is a very precise and time consuming thing, where every millimeter counts...so it's not for me...






Anyway, what I made is just fabric gathered on the belt, without any pattern. I'm thinking of maybe putting some sort of buttons and making a front closure, or just a hidden zip on the back...I'll make sure to post an outfit with the final result...

Kisses!
