Diamonds are too, I know. But for us mere mortals who don’t afford “diamonds”, a cute, new dress is Ok too. These are the dresses I designed and sewed lately: This fabric is actually from my aunt, who works in a clothing factory and helps in the process of making the clothes for designers such .... read more
No, this is not another post on the “I Am Not A Plastic Bag” bag. I just wanted to show you alternatives to buying handbags: make them yourself! I guess I am in a creative rush lately, because I seem to do/sew lots of clothes and handbags. Well, I’m having fun while spending my time .... read more
It’s not like I needed another LBD but I couldn’t stand looking at a skirt and not doing anything with it. I mean, the “techno” skirt was indeed hideous, think long, shapeless with pockets on each sides (I guess they used to wear them in the 90′s?). So I cut it up a bit, did .... read more
Remember this Zara dress? There is one store in Timisoara where I found this dress but the price was incredibly high, about 3 times it’s original value. Seriously. It was a shock for me when I look at the price tag. So I decided to create/sew/make my own ruffle top/dress/skirt. Easier for me to make .... read more
My mom recently gave me approval and free access to these two satin shirts she didn’t wear anymore. I think it’s sad for clothes to just sit in the closet, therefor when somebody stops wearing something I instantly think about changing that garment so that it’s wearable again. I did that with 3/4 of my .... read more
Take one shitty hat (excuse my expression), spray it with silver color (graffiti spray works too) and wear it, because the “metallic” trend is still in (fashion that is). Same thing I did to my once white, vintage clutch because I scratched it somewhere and I hated the fact that I had to wash it .... read more
It seems like I am in a mad sewing mood lately. These are the latest things I created today, out of random pieces of fabric that I found in my mom’s closet. She probably wanted to make something for herself, but now it’s too late. However she did like what I came up with today: .... read more
I have always loved this hue of pink and probably will for a long time, from now on. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t dress in all pink, don’t wanna be a walking pink shadow, but a little touch here and there works for me and keeps me happy [my girlie side is satisfied]. It .... read more
Inspiration: First there was Maison Martin Margiela ss07 ready-to-wear collection (pictures up). Watch the whole collection here. Then the Facehunter snapped a picture of this girl wearing a Margiela inspired bodysuit: Great huge hand bag and lovely haircut. Susie over at Style Bubble got inspired herself and tried the look out, adding her own personality .... read more
A while ago I went fabric shopping with my bff Smara; I got about 5m of a nice yellow flower print fabric and because the sales man liked the fact that we were so interested in the fabrics, and excited to be in that huge store [heaven for fashion freaks] he gave me this purple .... read more
