Sewing My Wedding Dress
I sewed my own wedding dress, and finally fulfilled a dream of mine that I’ve had since I was a little girl.
But holy shit was it one of the hardest.
Not only did it take patience, research, books, pinterest, skill and hours of searching the internet.
It’s something I’ve thought about ever since childhood. Like many of you, as a little girl, l was dreaming of my wedding, wearing a gorgeous dress, surrounded by loved ones and flowers. I always daydreamed of what the magical day would look like. But, reality has a funny way of sneaking in once you reach your raging 20s, filled with heartbreak and confusion. A wedding seems like the hardest thing to obtain, let alone an upstanding, kind man (play- Slim Pickins' by Sabrina Carpenter.)
The Frankie Scarf
Overall, I absolutely fell in love with this scarf, and was dragging my feet to give it to my sister. The process was difficult, and tedious. But the bubblyness and dimension of the scarf outmatched any hopes I had for it. It’s such a statement piece, that is so extremely unique.
Spring Wardrobe Switchover
I was dreading switching over my closet. I love my winter wardrobe. I feel like it has the strongest, most loved items. They are so comforting to me. My boots,sweaters, and coats- Gaaaah I am just so in love with you!
Fashion: My Love
I love fashion.
The ruffles, drapes, denim, sturdy, soft, loose, comforting, engaging, homely (as the British say), eccentric, shimmery, bold--fashion. The fashion that serves you in the ways you need while also expressing your true self. Fashion is emotional, and fashion is one of my true loves.
