Scallop Hemmed shorts

Well I just finished my last final. OH how can I sum of my feelings for this semester. Angry, disappointed, and just sad. All negatives because i tend to study the wrong things for a final. I looked at the goals i had for my self form the beginning of the semester: recover from the horrible accidents of Organic chemistry. It lowered my GPA to a 2.6. My goal was to raise it to at least 3.0 and from there maintain a steady effort from there. MMmmm well it's over and summer is here now.

that means a whole lot of diy coming my way! My first diy completed on the first day of summer. Scallop hemmed shorts. I got the tutorial from this amazing site. What do you think? My boyfriend told me it looks like cake. I think they'll look better if i dye them. Maybe a blue or yellow. Something bright for my closet and summer nice-ness.

 I don't know what's next on the list but probably something travel related.  Well that's all for now. Till next time.

Spring Break Excitment!

Being a student allows me to be overly excited for days that I DON'T have to suffer through school. Yay! Lots of crafty things scheduled for spring break! first of all I'm doing the famous wool-eater crochet along without actually participating in the crochet along. I just picked up the pattern from here. Beautiful pattern but requires A LOT more yarn per round than I previously thought. Guess I'll have to be on the look out for yarn.

Spring Break Dress #1 is officially finished! It's ta-DA  The multi-wrap/ infinity dress. Made from stretchy fabric from the LA fashion district. Maybe I'll just keep the fabrics a surprise so I can just reveal the garment instead. :P
The tutorial I used is this.

My goal is at least two dresses will be made this break. Because I have to face the reality that jeans although so very comfortable and practical are not so fun to wear. Whenever I wear a dress I just feel more feminine. And sometimes just feeling like a woman makes me feel powerful. Anyone agree?

Other none crafty goal is to read read read! read all the books that have piled up on my to-read list!

BTW a big and excited side note. Did you see HUNGER GAMES. It was magnificent. I loved it from start to finish and definitely should not be rated pg-13. I thought a little more gore was necessary and a higher rating even from the movie showing now. Well all done. Till next time, star-shine!

Sheer skirt!

I finally did it i made a sheer maxi skirt that i envied. From the fabric I bought at Downtown LA too. So this skirt probably only cost me less than 3 dollars :D doesn't that just make you smile.


I even added a small decency lining because I don't have WHITE booty shorts :P

I'll post the fabric soon. the lighting in my room is just horrible since it's going to rain soon. How gloomy :[
