I'm a free-lance artist who sews a whole bunch and has a major weakness for cute shoes. This blog is about anything and everything I do that is creative.

I'm currently challenging myself to sew something new for myself every month and put together some cute ensemble to go with it.

I decided April will be a 2-for-1 month. This dress whipped up easily. I just need to do the hem and I’m set to go…sounds easy but the skirt is at least 7 yards at the hem which needs blind-hemmed (otherwise, it won’t look right).

The dressmaking form doesn’t do it justice because the form is NOT close to my proprortions. When it’s worn, it looks flattering and those awesome peacock shoes? Those really bring it together along with the fascinator I made!

I was afraid it’d look too fussy, but it really is a perfect look for a night out in Memphis (or anywhere, for that matter)! Even makes a great day-dress. Suffice to say, I’m in LOVE with the outfit. Will pair it with some vintage black beads from my grandma.
