Victorian Dream

So, I'm totally in love with this dress that I recently found. It's a Jessica McClintock Bridal piece from the 1970s, or so I believe. The flutter sleeves and lace neckline are just too pretty.

I think I'm just a fan of clothing that transports me to another era or way of thinking. I'd rather dress up that be super casual any day. :)

Thanks to my lovely friend Kayla for modeling!

Sewing...


I just finished sewing my first piece of swimwear. Mad props to people who do this on a professional level. It turned out relatively okay for a first try, and I'll take a picture wearing it when I'm in Florida next week. ( Which I am so stoked for. Beaches and colorful drinks? I'm there.) 

Anyway, the pattern was one from 1974 and the fabric was a purple and white striped spandex that I got on sale at JoAnn.
