So, I figured today I would do an outfit post, because I got a lovely new outfit about a week ago. :-) Anyways, I had won a $60 gift card to Mod Cloth, so I bought the "Rebecca to Basics" dress, and the "Winding My Way" heel.
I do love to wear jeans for my general, everyday wear, but I love the feeling of skirts and dresses when I wear them. In heels, I feel kind of stately and classy. :-D
The dress and shoes are actually different shades of purple, so this "photoshoot" is probably the only time I'll ever wear them together. :-)
Love love love the silver stripe on the heels!!! They are a suede plum material, and so far fit pretty comfortably.
I added another shirt underneath because the V opening dips pretty low. All in all though, it's a fantastic dress that I feel great in!
Now, I usually don't spend large amounts of money on new clothing, but I do enjoy making my own dresses when I can find a good deal on fabric, or have an especially strong inspiration for a particular dress. The second is what I am currently working on... It will end up being a pretty expensive dress, all told, but incredibly worth it!
A little peek at my inspiration:
Do you ever make your own clothes? What is your favorite type of clothing to make?
Wow. Awesome post, Joanna. That outfit is really pretty. I like to make are dresses. I have a couple of homemade dresses. I think it's really cool that you like to make clothes.
