Finally a dress with sleeves..

So I have been trying to manipulate and create a sleeve pattern for a knit fabric. After many failed attempts I finally have something CLOSE but not perfect to what I am looking for.

To the left is the dress that I made for a client demonstrating just that.

Can I just tell you about how much IN LOVE with this print I am??!! When completely laid out the fabric shows giant roses in bright colors.. I couldn't help myself when I saw it at discount fabrics.


It took approx. 3 hours to make (I drafted the pattern.. messed up a few times and had to do it again) in total. I thought the front is conservative but still fun with the print. The back is low enough to show some skin but high enough that it fits under a blazer if feeling a bit shy. The belt is removable (Velcro.. woo!) and will accommodate up to a 28" waist. The dress itself is made to fit a size 6, snug and flattering but a size 4 could wear it a bit loose, but still tight.

The Apartment

On March 1, 2011 we moved into our new apartment. I made a video for my parents but was never able to send it to them via text :(

But thanks to Blogger.com I am able to share it with them and well, you, so sit back and enjoy!

Once we get a little more situated I will post another video of what it looks like since we've moved in.. big change, but even MORE awesome!!

First post!! Yippie!

So it's official, She's Fashion (Me) He's Music (Him) is finally getting started.

Ever since we moved in together (a little less than a month ago) I have been embarking on this new found adulthood and wanting to share it with others who may be going through the same things. Selfishly I will also be providing myself with an outlet for when crazy moments hit.. maybe you can laugh along with me as I stress about the small things and he laughs at me the whole way home.

A little about us, I am 23, he is 27 and we have been dating since Nov. 2010. Woo.. our relationship has been anything but conventional and everything that love and fun has to offer. Neither of us had any idea that lovers could also be best friends and that being in a serious relationship doesn't mean that you have to be serious in your mind. My parents say it's just because we are young that we love to chase each other around the house, play tricks, make jokes and laugh until we cry, but I think it's just the moment of truly finding your soul mate and loving every minute of it.


What can you expect?? Well... that all depends on what is going on in our lives. Form me you will see new fashion designs, cooking techniques, blogs about how to keep love alive and so on and so forth. From him you will see amazing art, music that he is making and all that jazz (though I will probably be the one posting his triumphs, he's not much of a blogger).



Soooo.. yea.. enjoy, ask us questions, let us know what you're thinking and we will always respond!

HAPPY BLOGGING!!
