Black and white.

My lovely friend Ollie created this and sent it through to me last night. It instantly added some cheer to my dismal day.

Don't you just love talented friends!?

Fragile.

Not having the best of days, unfortunatly.

There are those days where all you want to do is curl up in a ball and cry the day away.

It's a shame reality -and work- come knocking.

Ice in sunshine.

There is sunshine today! Ridicuously exciting, as all my winter garments are beginning to aggrivate me. Summer is my favourite time of the year, and the warmer weather we've been having here the past few days is like a shot of happiness!

I whipped on the latest blouse I've made for a day spent running all over the place getting the last bits of my portfolio together. Applications for AUT are due in at the end of this week, and I'm off to hand mine in in the morning. Rather nerveracking, but also very exciting to see a lot of my work all come together. Celebrations will most definatly be in order after it's handed in!

I've got my heart on a string.

Hurrah for the $4 t-shirt!

I made up this t-shirt at midnight a day or so ago, and wore it out last night for a fun evening. Tutorials on 4-strand plaiting were watched, nutella sandwiches were consumed and movies were laughed at.

For the t-shirt I plaited strips of the fabric and then hand-sewed it down on top of the top. A tad time consuming but I'm more than happy with the result. It's wonderfully exciting being able to start wearing warmer-weather pieces of clothing!

White nights.

This dress makes me feel so special when I wear it, making it my favourite to whip on at any given time. I made it from a beautiful white velveteen that feels like a bunny rabbit and is so lovely to wear.

I have a sneaking feeling I'll be making more in similar styles. What could be more perfect than a dress that combines a fitted bodice, tulip skirt, holey back and in muted tones? Heaven, indeed.
