Forest green & midnight blue dress

Last week I had a pretty bad back pain and almost

whole week I was in bed. While I was having lunch,

I saw a Spotlight Easter Sale ad on tv and that day 

was the last day of sale. After lunch I dressed up and told 

to my husband I'm going to Spotlight. (Because I had seen 

some fabrics at Spotlight a few weeks ago and I was afraid 

that during the sale, the fabric would be gone). My husband 

exclaimed, "Are you crazy? Before lunch you were

immobilized now a totally healthy person go to shopping.

 Have you really got back pain?" Although I had still in 

pain, stubbornly I went to Spotlight and got this beautiful

 forest green and midnight blue crepe fabric. I used my

 simple dress pattern but played around a little bit. I think 

it was worth the physical suffering for this fabulous dress.

Roger Scruton raised an interesting issue which
I have been upset about lately. It is worth watching.

and Piet Mondrian.

I like the Mondrian colour block and always 

wanted to have a dress with Mondrian canvas.

 Yet I haven't got opportunity to own it until now. 

Recently, I found this orange Mondrian jersey at 

Tessuti and bought this Fendi Fall 2011 shoes. I thought 

the shoes match well with the Mondrian dress. I want to 

say thank you to Tessuti, which gave me this chance. 

I have made a few mistakes while making this dress. 

The important thing is if you make the Mondrian dress 

with sleeves you should buy a plenty of fabrics to 

match the bodice and sleeves print.

Grey and Red

 

I introduced my perfect red pumps on previous

post. The magic thing is when I wear this red
pumps I feel sexy and happy. So I made this silverish grey top and pants

 for my red pump. I used McCall'sM6403 as the pattern

 for the pants. Fabrics from Tessuti, belt from 

Scanlan & Theodore.
