Hi guys, how are you?
Remember my rosy fabric (used to be a skirt) that I found in my mums basement and wore
as a scarf the other day?
Yesterday I sewed a dress from it and added shoe laces (that I made for a pair of
sandals a while back) as a waistband.
What do you think?
The dress in its former life
The laces in their former life (studs from a dress, laces made from a belt)
I love this contrast of the romantic fabric and the studs with the black 
I worked the dress with mixed bangles, headband, leopard scarf and white ring from H&M
Sending you all big hugs!
Thanks so much for following!

I just love love love this – you are truly talented and very creative!!! I love the soft romantic edge you bring to your designs. I thought the recycling of your shoe "laces" was clever. I also really adore that purple/teal flowered dress (I think it's 3rd or 4 in line at the top of your blog). When I see you in a new outfit I have to admit I smile and feel good for a few hours afterward!!!
