outfit a day
November 16, 2011 By 18 Comments
I give you...last week's outfits. Some of them at least. I need some new poses...I just feel ridiculous sometimes so I end up looking at the ground a lot. At least by the time we take pictures my neighbors have all left for work. Small victories, people. Also, I'm boring and wear jeans every day. Oh well, I say. I'm a mom.

the Anna dress (sew along)
May 4, 2011 By 53 Comments
tada! Another dress! (try to control your excitement) I don't often sew with solids (I'm a print lova), but I fell in love with this little dress when it was all said and done. Something about the simplicity of the design (and slight vintage flair) appealed to me immensely. Plus, I made it with some cheap inexpensive shirting so the whole dress … [Read more...]
