The typhoon is gone…
I wanted to experiment with the skirt I made the other day, and wanted to come up with a way to wear it other than paring a simple white tank. I saw Glamorai pairing a skirt with a LBD to wear the dress as a top, here. The hem of the LBD is showing a bit, and it makes her outfit so chic! So I tried her trick with my zara mini dress. Unfortunately, the dress was way too short to show the hem of it under neath the skirt, but I am happy that now I figured out I can wear this dress as a top.
This sandal & tights pair reminds me of Rebecca was a recluse. I love her flickr photos. In one one her outfit photos, she wears beige summer sandals with black tights, and I thought it was a great way to wear sandals even in the fall!
My upcoming weekend is filled with:
* Meeting my frined whom I have not seen for 5 years!
* Going to buffett lunch with my little sister
* Church, on Sunday
* Going to a tea celemony with my aunt and cusin
* Making a violet jumper…coming up soon!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Floral skirt
With the same fabric as this dress, I made a skirt. I think I like the skirt better than the dress, since it is more versatile. I can think of a lot of variation with leggings, tights, slouchy tops or sweaters… I have a thing of floral fabrics. I know the fashion world this season is all about studs, 80’s, Goth etc, but I love romantic floral prints.
No pattern is used. The skirt part is three rectangles, and I pleated instead of gathering the fabric, because of the thickness of the fabric. Then I added a thick waistband and an exposed zipper. I like adding waist band this fall/winter, to make it a high-waisted look. Also I added two pockets on the side! I love pockets!
Tanktop: Unknown, Skirt: Handmade by me, Tights: Unknown, Booties: Payless, Jacket: thrifted Uniqlo.It has been raining for a week now since the typhoon was coming. Last night, I got up in the middle of the night because of the sound of rain – it was pouring. I miss the sunny weather already.
