After a month of bag making, I am back to blogging about my clothes. I created about a dozen bags and sold many of them at art sales this holiday season. It's been fun and I'll probably continue to make bags. Stay tuned for a post-new year Etsy page.
During my time working in my own personal sweatshop, I did a few outfit drawings for special occasions.
Wedding
In this outfit, I decided to wear all of my black silk and all of my jade jewelry. While that sounds crazy, I think it turned out pretty good.
I really love this dress. I got it at a vintage store with an awkward group fitting room and when I put it on, all of the other girls in the room went "ooh". So I bought it. I thought it would become my little black dress, but because it's silk, I think it's a little fancy to be so versatile. I've only worn it twice, but I'll probably keep it forever because it's so timeless and unassuming while being completely fabulous.
Art Sale
I completely butchered the print on this shirt. It's really more art deco than jagged fangs.
Cabaret
Here's a fun one! I had the opportunity to sing in the annual Christmas cabaret at Nye's piano bar in Minneapolis. The dress code for performers was to wear something that we considered to be festive. I opted for a blue velvet dress, even more appropriate considering I sang Blue Christmas and Pretty Paper. All I needed to complete my look was some dramatic back lighting and a cigarette.
