Happy Eve of Christmas Eve Lovelies! Can you believe it? Christmas rolled around just like that! We usually take our Christmas picture in home ourselves, but this year Abbie asked to meet Santa Claus, and so we obliged.

Good Morning Lovelies! We made our last Disneyland visit for this year last week and I decided it was much too cold to consider any cosplay dresses. The wind chill was something fierce! Brrrr!!!

Good Morning Lovelies, With Christmas approaching I was feeling a little homesick and missing my family in Belize.

Happy Monday Lovelies! So remember these super cute shoes I had posted about in JANUARY!?!? January!! (as time stamped in my facebook post HERE) I JUST FOUND THEM while cleaning out the closet! All of 11 months later!! I remember being super stoked that I had fabric that matched the shoes perfectly and had all the plans to sew up […]
Happy Hump Day Lovelies! Today, I get to share with you another cozy, perfect-for-FALL sew – the adorable THE FISHTAIL KIMONO by Chalk and Notch.

Happy Sunday Lovelies!! So Fall has finally graced us in Southern California with cooler temperatures, and you know what that means?! It’s jackets, scarves and boots season!! WOHOO!!! I was selected to test The Rondje Top by The Eli Monster a few weeks ago, and I kid you not, it is hands down, the quickest sew I’ve ever done – 20 minutes from start […]
