A new DIY hat?


I really love these hats from Balenciaga Resort 2014. Is it a DIY hat? I must try to make this sometime.  I will keep you posted.

Summer sales

Before I go mad at the summer sales, I try to prepare myself by deciding what look or style I want to buy. Sharing with you some of my inspirations before I hit the shops...

The pictures are from  www.style.com.  Spring 2013 rtw. The outfits are from Christopher Kane, Chanel and Saint Laurent.

If you have a lot of money you can buy some of these outfits on net-a-porter.com, where they also have summer sales. I'll just have to stick to the high-street in Glasgow (I don't mind at all actually - the shops are great)

Girls waistcoat

I have crocheted this for one of my nieces. We both loved the colour of the thread when I started crocheting. But when I was finished and she tried it on it did not look nice at all. So I edged it with fabric from an old scarf.

Owls and other birds

Everybody love the cute little owls, and you find them anywere thesedays; on clothes like jumpers, dresses, in neclaces, earrings, in different kinds of fabrics, buttons and so on. I have made a few myself....

Updated boater

One of the reasons why I love the classic boaters is because I can easely change them. I can make them in any colour I fancy or......I can change the colour of the ribbon, or adding a brooche to it, and so on. Just had to show you the one of the latest change I made.




A boater with stripes... Now were is my black and white suit?
