Inspiration: P.S. – I made this

all images from P.S. I made this

Have you heard of a book, called P.S. I made this? I came across with this wonderful DIY book via WhoWhatWear the other day. I haven’t bought the book yet, but I could not stop looking at her website, which is full of DIY ideas and resources! Her DIY ideas include fashion, accessories and home decore, and looking at her DIY collage is so much fun!

Inspiration: Secret Squirrel

Secret Squirrel Spring/Summer 2010 via Liebemarlene Vintage

I came across this Sydney born label, Secret Squirrel via Liebemarlene vintage (one of my favorite fashion blogs by the way!). Their motto is to create clothes “that will stand the test of time” I can see that by looking at their simple, elegant clothing, yet I love the subtle details, like the interesting cut of the dress (top left and bottom left) and round collars!

Lovely work spaces

By

I’m truly in awe of people who can keep their sewing work spaces neat and lovely. As a part of BurdaStlye book project, my husband video taped my sewing room, but I’m so embarrassed because it was so messy! When I am sewing, ironing, cutting out pattern pieces, keeping the work area clean is not my priority.

I am inspired by the lovely sewing rooms below, it looks like the ideas for new clothes would pop up easily had I worked in those adorable places.

I just moved to a new place 3 days ago, so let’s hope I can keep my work space clean and decorate it lovely this time.
