DIY-project: Top inspired by Katie

Lately my head has been overflowing with all types of ideas for clothes. It´s annoying you know, because I´ve never sewn before (if you look away from those crappy sewing lessons in elementary school). Mum just happened to have a old sewing machine, she used to sew a lot, but now she can´t bother anymore. Kinda sad, but I guess she just don´t have the motivation. Me on the other had have way too much so despite never done it before I wanted to give it try.
Everyone has got to start somewhere right?

I kindly asked for some old fabrics and she threw some old curtains at me. I found some pink gingham fabric in my room and also raped the plastic flower in the old vase (no one look at anyway) and this became the result:


Front

As you can see the middle part is transparent, but the pink gingham are just wide enough to cover dem boobs so whether you wear it with a top under or not it´s all fine, but I think I prefer to wear something under with it.

Back 

(kindly reminder to myself: iron the fabric before you start)


Details

I love daisy flowers (my favorite flowers) and I used pearls too.



Details

This is the pattern of the curtain. It´s so pretty though. Such I pity mum is not using it anymore, but I guess i shouldn´t complain. More stuff for free to me heh.

I was inspired by Katie´s clothing. Katie always have such simple designs yet they are so pretty!

Here are some examples:




I´m very pleased with the result if looking at the fact that I´ve never sewn before and this is 100% self-taught so I very happy with myself aside the fact that there was some less impressive swearing going around in the beginning haha(you know how it is right?) ! Nothing comes easily I guess.

 I know I need a lot of improvement many places, but I know I´ll eventually get there. Sewing was a lot of more fun than I though. Especially if you´re the designer too! I´ll definitely sew more!

Phone case ~ Decoden & I love you my 100 followers


Firstly I must say thank you so so much!

I was so happy when I logged in to see I got 100 followers! It means a lot to me and I love every single one you you <3 I would like to do some sort of giveaway to celebrate, but right now I'm saving for my trip so I'm sorry :'( maybe after I'm back (if I've got the money haha!)



Secondly..well..this is what I actually made this post for. 
I finally finished decorating my iphone case. I know it took aaaages, but I like to take my time
when I first get started. (also gotta admit I've been quite lazy about it haha)








over 1000 rhinestones and pearls omg why did I even bother??
It would've just been easier to buy one haha, but it's always funnier using something you spend time doing yourself : D

what do you think? Like the pink mustachio senoritas?~

until next entry <3
