Weave Bodycon Skirt

As much as I love the rain and what it does to the prairie, it's made it very difficult to take photos. I've been meaning to post about this skirt for two weeks now. Today the clouds finally broke, so I'm happy to share the last thing I made. What drew me to this fabric was the pattern, it's fun and very different. Hope you like it as much as I do! I paired the skirt with a simple white tee and a silk J. Crew jacket I've been stalking online and managed to snatch as soon as it went on sale.

Red & Blue

I truly dislike neglecting the blog for longer than a few days, but at time real life gets in the way. So thank you once more for sticking with me despite the sporadic posting schedule :o). Anyway, the semester is finally over. Now if the sun would just come out behind those clouds, life would be perfect!

So here is my newest dress. It's obvious I'm yet again gravitating toward bodycon pieces. I'm trying to lighten my summer wardrobe with a couple of easy-to-wear, throw-on-and-forget-about-it dresses. Stripes, of course, rarely disappoint, especially when done in such vibrant hue. It's like the sailor dress I did last year, only this time around, I decided to add ruching on both sides. And I made it longer.

How do you like it?

- Mexico and Colorful Clouds ?

Yes! In the video that Anna Palma produced for VOGUE Bambini while shooting the photo story in Mexico for our Spring May/ June issue which just came out in the newsstands.

White layers & Idaho scenery

Here is something else I've been playing with. I really like wrap-around dresses, they are so flattering. Adding a few layers at the bottom doesn't hurt either, as they soften up the bodycon silhouette and make the dress more wearable.

Hope you like this!

Lace Skirt

The weather today was absolutely spectacular! I very much hope spring is here to stay (last week was rather unpleasant). So thanks to the bright sun, I was able to take some photos of my newest piece - a bodycon lace skirt. I was very excited when I found this beautiful, dense & stretchy lace fabric at the store and was happy to see the skirt turn out as I had imagined it in my head.

What do you think?
