All my dresses: part 5

New shoe clips, in navy blue! I used this tutorial. YouTube has hundreds. Thank you for sharing, fellow craft-maniacs!

Half way through the dress challenge. Missing my skirts so much...
Red jersey dress from ModCloth; black mexican-style dress thrifted; green stretch dress from ModCloth; tweed suit from Macy's about 8 years ago; blue striped nautical dress from ModCloth.

Have a great weekend!xoxoxox

All my dresses: part3

Well, the saga continues... I'm about a third of the way through the dresses in my closet. This week's pic (dresses from last week) features my new brown "bow tie" shoe clips. I LOVE them! And since I had to travel for work to a conference in BEAUTIFUL Chicago, you get to see my "travel dresses." I pack the same dresses every time; they don't wrinkle and are easy to wash in the sink if needed. The pink (top center) and black and white (bottom left) are both Jason Wu for Target. The top right is a Made-by-Me from a vintage 80's pattern. Non-travel dresses included here: top left is Made by Me from a Butterick knit wrap-dress pattern, and bottom right is vintage 1960's wool dress from Korea.

Chicago was great. I enjoyed being by the river. It's a very pretty city. The conference was interesting and I ate delicious deep dish pizza at Gino's and saw Book of Mormon and The Second City revue. I didn't waste any of my free time.:)  I encourage you to do the same- Don't waste time! Do things you love! 
Have a great week.

All my dresses, part 2

Here is another week's worth of dresses. I'm really excited about wearing EVERY dress in the closet! Tune in next week for the next five. Also pictured here are my blue tip french manicure (masked with masking tape, covered in glittery gold!:), and my new craft obsession -- SHOE CLIPS! I used this tutorial to make these. I am loving show clips right now. Get crafting!
