HI DARLINGS! If you guys can’t tell, I love this SIMPLICITY 8558 pattern. I have made this jacket three times (HERE and HERE) including this new modified one. Although I love the pattern as is, I decided to modify it into an ankle length jacket. Being able to wear a simple tee and jeans with a long jacket or cardigan is my favorite everyday look. Getting the most out of your patterns should always be a goal. I’m always looking for ways to make more looks from one pattern. Thi

Hi Darlings, I hope you had an enjoyable weekend. I spent my weekend working a bit and cleaning up the office! I don’t understand how so much dust gathers in this loft. Anyway, I had a little bit of sewing time so I have a new Pattern Review for you tomorrow. Today’s look however is a new fit I picked up at H&M this past weekend. I LOVE these PRINTED SLACKS so much because they have so many style options. I showed a second “Office Option” below. I know many of you are on the

Hi Darlings! Happy Tuesday. I wish I could say I made this jumpsuit but truth is I didn’t… I actually bought it last minute before heading to DC earlier this month because I forgot to pack something for that days events. I went to ZARA the day before my flight out of NY and saw this as I was walking out in disappointment from not having found anything.

Hi Darlings!! I have had the most amazing week and it’s only Wednesday lol!

I have been so inspired that I am ready to get home and do some sewing, create new projects and launch that new “thing” I mentioned last week. I am not ready to get your feedback yet so I am going to wait until I get back home to share and get you guys involved. Okay

Hey Darlings, Happy Tuesday….Can we stop and talk about these WEDGE SNEAKS? lol I am over the moon about these babies, lol. I bought them in black too and I love to wear them because since I am only 5′ 4″ I am always looking to feel taller even when I wearing my casual stuff. The wedges give me height and dress up my sweats. This gold sweater was an H&M find from several years ago…The PANTS are from ZARA…Links to anything I could find online are below… I am off to do some fil

Hi Darlings! Thank you so much for all the great comments on my design studio and closet. I really enjoy spending time in my space and so does my family, lol I love looking over and watching my kids sitting on the carpet or on the chaise watching TV while I work, there is no better moments than those. I thank you all so much for the support you guys show me…even the one or two unhappy folks who always have something negative to say, lol you make me relevant in your day so tha

Hi Darlings, I am super excited to say that tomorrow I will posting the “Front Slit Maxi Tutorial” I had been trying to squeeze in time to film on top of conference stuff, so I feel a sense of relief that manage to do it before the month ended. I also wanted to mention that I have a few tickets to the conference up for grabs, but I will post about it next week.
