OMG that dress!

OMG that dress!

Wardrobe Refashion My inspiration: from Charlotte Russe, although I don't think it's available anymore My version: I choose not to cut out the fabric underneath the lace - I actually tried a version where I did but did not like the way that it looked on me (probably more suited to someone in their 20's) I don't have step-by-step photos of this project because there is really only one step - cut your lace to the shape you would like, lay out on the back of your shirt, pin in place, and sew down - an easy little way to incorporate the lace trend into your wardrobe. www.mytwobutterflies.blogspot.com LOVE AESTHETICS | by Ivania Carpio Made By Rae Tout savoir – Le FourrureClub, LA communauté des amateurs et fétichistes de la fourrure !

Quelques faits sur la fourrure La fourrure est une ressource naturelle, renouvelable et durable. À l’échelle internationale, le secteur de la fourrure est un exemple remarquable du concept de développement durable de nos ressources naturelles. Près de 85 % de la fourrure est issue de l’élevage et notamment des fermes européennes qui comptent pour 70 % de la production internationale de visons et 63 % de l’élevage de renards. La fourrure sauvage représente aujourd’hui seulement 15 % de la production mondiale. On peut remodeler un manteau en fourrure et lui donner un nouveau look au gré des tendances mode. Lexique

lower your presser foot MADE Noodlehead index 49 Dresses: DIY Reunited with my sewing machine and it feels so good. Actually, that's a lie, I got a new machine, so it actually feels better. Anyway, while summer does not mean I'm just bumming around all the time, I do have a little more free time on my hands and therefore decided to tackle my monstrous pile of potential sewing projects last night. I got this dress sometime within the past year (yep, it's been so long I don't even remember...) from Goodwill for $4. First, the simple stuff. Then I had all that excess fabric...and I didn't know how I felt about the cheap black belt that came with the dress, so I made one. Then turned it right side out and hand finished the remaining end with a quick slip stitch. Which resulted in this! And so a new dress was born, right?
