Velvet Sunset


Happy Memorial Day weekend!! Its finally time to enjoy the outdoors this year.
This holiday weekend I decided to relax,go hiking,
and most importantly enjoy a few good barbecues!! 
Velvet can be a winter look to wear, but when I saw this lavender velvet at the fabric store
I knew I had to to have a cute short sleeve top made out of it.
I sewed this amazing short sleeve velvet blouse for my spring and summer wardrobe!
Its a nice light weight velvet and the color is incredible!!
Enjoy your 3 day weekend and Happy Friday!!

Medieval Times

Perhaps the prairie dress trend was just that..A
 trend, but I still love wearing it!!!
I enjoy the romance of a loose floral printed maxi skirt,
 and those laced up bodices that are straight out of a fairytale!!
This is quite a unique piece I discovered!
While browsing through a vintage shop I found this unusually green colored dress.
To me this looks to be a Gunnesax dress that had been dyed green.
I think its awesome! I love the green color.
The burgundy velvet trim looks almost royal from a Medieval time period.
I took it to Ireland with me and did an incredible shoot by this big beautiful lake.
I felt like a Princess in this dress!
This summer I'm going to try to make a few prairie inspired looks for myself.
I need more maxi skirts in a lot more colors!
I know by this point we have had way too many trends thrown at us.
The key is to take your favorite looks and mix and match them to what is uniquely you.
Happy Styling!
