diy

h&m shift dress (worn as top), velvet skirt made by me!, miss selfridge clutch

here is a quick post of what i've been up to recently. i've been busy making cute skirts on my little sewing machine; this navy velvet one is my favourite! :) and i have also been making postcards for my friends! they're just silly drawings in felt tip pens and colouring pencils but it was so much fun! :) i forgot how much i love doing this kinda diy stuff! and isn't my little leopard+sequin clutch the cutest thing ever? i haven't worn it since my grad ball so i thought i'd show it some love by taking it out that evening! also, sorry for the gloomy face! haha, it was unintentional.. i promise! :)
