a very blurry daily dress....

as the little boy who took it was led fully stretched out watching cartoons and didn't feel the need to sit up for mum's daft clothes pictures!!
I found this dress in a charity shop last year and had whimsical dreams of wearing it in a sunflower field whilst walking bare foot and humming a little tune, but in reality its a bit see through and hasn't been warm enough to wear it until now.

girly days

I have been changing lately into a real girly girl, I'm loving petticoats and slips and really pretty skirts, this cute pink one I made myself, its lined and has shocking pink hand dyed net sewn around the hem, also on the hem are embroidered stars, its swirly, girly and fun!
Since being able to crochet (thank you for teaching me MB) I have been making over sized flowers just perfect for hair clips.

if I was off to the prom.......

Hola gorgeous ladies and gents, if I was off to a ball I wouldn't stick with grey, I wouldn't be boring and stern, oh no,no I would browse this fantastical site



Ohh La La, very sexy and swish, go over to their blog for the latest updates, drool over the corsets and beautiful gowns, fall in love with these cute knickers and dream about all the posh places you could go xxxxx


Fashion at the Met Costume Institute Gala

The stars were out in force for last night's fashion extravaganza in New York, the lovely J-Lo who I must admit I have not ever really been keen on her outfits, looked very lovely and sophisticated in the floor length Zuhair Murad dress, in the colour of the summer season according to some divas, shimmering, subtle, beautiful grey.

Carey Mulligan, starlet of the 2012 My fair lady film wore a very cute tonal Mui Mui dress, black tights and patent heels. I may try and replicate this at some point but not in lace, I really like the style of it and the over sized pockets.


The wow factor though was the adorable Katy Perry who lit up the proceedings in this awesome neon lit gown!
