inspiration


Where do I get my inspiration from? Well, it differs. Sometimes I'm just going through my old clothes and right away get an idea what I want to do. Sometimes I'm scrolling Tumblr or Instagram or some other network and something catches my eye. For example the pictures above are both from Tumblr.
Sometimes I see someone with great style and just simply try to memorize how their clothes looked like and e. g. try to remember some specific details. 
I loooooove wearing dresses and skirts! One of my own favorite dresses is Ted Baker's simple little black dress with silk sleeves. I found it on sale during summer and I couldn't leave it there! Now I'm just waiting for a special occasion to wear it.
Gossip Girl and especially Blair Waldorf has been my inspiration for ages. I love her sophisticated style and how she carries herself with such grace. I think the stylists of the show have done great job and I think I could wear almost anything seen on her on the show.

my designs


As I mentioned in my first post, I really enjoy sewing. So you can imagine how thrilled I was when I got a new sewing machine for my birthday present. Since that I've been turning my old clothes into something more wearable and fashionable. And because I usually happen to be little bit perfectionist about my own designs, eventually they end up looking pretty awesome. After a long time of ripping and re-sewing, obviously. Well, here is some photos of my newest pieces.
For this sweater I used an old cardigan with buttons, and some black lace. 
This peplum shirt used to be two ugly shirts that I never wore.
And last but not least, a pic of my fabric box, full of old clothes and fabrics I can use to create something fashion-forward.
