socks + sandals

By

I’ve noticed some fashionable people online are wearing short socks (especially in black) with pumps, oxford and sandals. I like the mix of oversized vintage shirt and socks & oxford by Song of Style. Bravegirrl (on the right) wears brown socks with Balenciaga sandals, although it looks almost impossible to walk and do some everyday stuff with those killer heels, she really looks chic!
Late Afternoon is my daily read.. not only I like style, but also I am attracted to her long blond hair with bangs. The hear style really suits her.

Ships!

By

Just thought to share a dress I made before all the craziness started last week! I got this cute ships fabric in Nippori, Japan. I thought it might be too much if I used this fabric all though the dress, so I decided to use it only for the top part.
The bottom skirt is made out of black light weight cotton, which is so breezy and comfortable.

Now I’m in Philly! It was so beautiful and sunny today, it made me happy. I hope this weather lasts for a while.

Custom Orders

By

March was unbelievably and unexpectedly good month for my little etsy shop. Last week, I had to finish 8 custom order dresses in 5 days, while I still worked my full time job! It was crazy.
The floral cut out dress became a best selling item in my shop, and I love making that dress:)

Besides sewing, my husband, friends and I went to Hanami (Cherry blossom viewing) at Ueno park the other day, and it was a lot of fun! It was packed with people, different vendors etc, and I love the fact that we can have drinks at public places! In Pennsylvania, they had a strict alcohol rules, and it was not allowed to drink alcohol in public, or buy it at a convenient store. I love the freedom of that in Japan.
Now I’m in NY, and heading to Philly tomorrow!
