WARBLE

Hello all,

It's been ALONG time since I blogged but I have been busy running about. So I have posted my new creation. It's called a T dress, due to the fact it is in the shape of the letter T. I'm so proud of my mad sewing skills I'm warbling like a bird in thrill over this one.

CERULEAN

So I finished my latest project. I just love the color of the fabric, cerulean blue perhaps.

Here it is with accessories

Yes, those are my modcloth boots I've been waiting for. Aren't they gorgeous.

ANTICIPATION

Hello all, I know I haven't blogged in sometime but its so cold outside and I'm tired of taking pictures inside. According to Punxsutawney Phil we are in for an early spring which means in a few weeks time, spring outfit posts! In the meantime I'm sewing dresses for the upcoming spring season. I'll post my recent creation soon. I recently bought new boots from Modcloth and am checking UPS tracking every hour in anticipation of there arrival. Isn't she a beauty.

FINITO

I'm so proud! I finished making my first dress from scrap fabric. I know the colour is awful but just look at the design.

Obviously it's not perfect, but for my first dress it's pretty good. No words can explain how it makes me feel.

BETTY DRAPER

MAD MEN! The outfits in that show are inspirational. Today I was stuck in doors do to the snowpocalypse that was going on outside so I played dress up. I love Betty Draper outfits and tried to replicate this look:



I love the silk scarf :) I'm going to try and incorporate them in all my outfits.

CALM

I know it has been awhile since I last blogged, I've been occupied with randoms things but I promise to blog everyday this week. Right now I'm enjoying the calm before the storm, Southern Ontario is expecting a two day winter storm that might just shut down the city. You know what that means right? SNOW DAY!WOOT! I can finally get some tobboganing in before the season is over. I know just which hat to wear that will make me a fashionista on the hill.

What do you think? Can I pull it off or what?

REVERE

I finally made the time to clean the basement today and I discovered treasure! Upon opening one of many huge tupperware storage containers I found vintage purses! They are so beautfiul I just about started to cry when I saw them.

Here are my darlings,

I also finished my skirt from last week. Isn't she lovely.

LACE

Southern Ontario is experiencing a winter snowstorm, yikes! That means I'm shut in again. So I thought I would share my obsession for braids tonight. I love the clean classic look of a braid, did you know that there are 13 different types of braids? Crazy huh. Well I'm not going to list them all off I'm just going to tell you my favorite type. The Lace Braid! Never heard of it? Well it's like a French braid, but gathers extra hair only from one side as it travels down the head. Below is my attempt at the lace braid

Did I forget to mention that I'm not good at braids, oops. Here is what it should look like

Well after my many failed attempts to conquer the lace braid I decided to paint my nails a metallic green instead.

FEVER

I've been cooped up in my house the last week trying to kick the common cold bug from my body. So today cabin fever finally set in, so in my attempt to save my sanity I started to sew! My mother left me three sewing machines and trained me at a young age to use them so today I made myself this uber cute mini skirt.

I loved it so much that I ran out to Fabricland and bought myself a Vogue skirt pattern and went crazy cutting and sewing the day away.Stay tuned for the finished product.

It has been an entire week since my last blog and not much has happened on the fashion front due to my crippling cold. I do have a few pictures of my new favorite dress that came in from Ruche and my beautiful Guess stiletto heels below enjoy.

INFATUATION

Hi! I'm Evelyn and I have created this blog to motivate my fashion forward resolution. I will feature things that inspire and interest me, all in the hope of becoming a fashionista.

So I will get started by posting my interest for over the knee boots. I recently visited Toronto and saw the most beautiful pair of over the knee boots on a passerby who rocked them with a mini and fishnets and have been infatuated since.

Chanel

Oh how I love you.
