I got this on ebay a while ago but it looks alot different on me than on a skinny dress form.

It looks a lot BETTER girl! I'd sexually harass you right now if there weren't all these people around.

I hope those patterns are not beyond my skill level. I have so many in cue right now that I can't decide what to do next! I have one to hem and then I can post pics and one I need one extra *&^^%*&^% yard of fabric for because the fabric I chose is directional but not wide enough... ggrrrr. It's 80% cut out and sitting on the table....

As for my drive-in sailor pants, my husband hates them, so I might not get lucky in them. Or, maybe he'll want them off so badly I will!

They fit then? I really miss them, but it the shoe doesn't fit.. Put them on eBay!

Oooo they are amazing! Thank you so much!! I love you

I bought this lovely little skirt from the Bay today, first thing I've bought off there in a while - I've been good for once!

I also bought a couple of dreamshaper invisible bras from La Senza (buy 1 get 1 free, otherwise I wouldn't have), to go with the dress I'm wearing out on Friday. I'm actually pretty impressed, I didn't think they'd stay in place at all.

 

[MissHannah]

That IS a good find. Nice trawling.

Very sharp! I especially like the pockets with the arrowhead tailor's tacks. :eusa_clap

Haha they're teeny tiny, apparently a 4, but too small for a proper 4, so about a 3 1/2 I guess. I have a stupidly small feets lol

That is one lovely skirt Lyburnum & I feel it would go so well with my new shoes

 

[Treesaaw]

i'm so jelly of you right now dolly, those shoes will look fantastic with the dress you made!

Hoorah!!

After searching a year and a half, I have overshoes that FIT!

My long sad saga of not finding overshoes is over! At one point a lovely lady Lounger sold me a pair that looked exactly like what I wanted, but I couldn't get them to fasten. So I've just kept my ebay search up, emailing me new listings. And finally, score! And I won them for $14 WITH SHIPPING!! Early this year I was bidding, and being outbid, at well over $40.

These have rubber soles but tough waterproof fabric uppers, which might be why the rubber collectors didn't scoop them up. They fit great, though, over shoes with different heights, both 9's and 9.5's.

Yay! :eusa_clap

I LOOOVE that skirt! I want to have one too!

Can you come to Minneapolis and follow me around all day saying nice things to lift my self esteem? lol

Does the position pay? Not that I need cash to compliment you, but a chickadee's gotta live!

Sunny, I'm so happy for you, I had read your story, and really felt bad for you, as I surely could relate, and I'm sure many of us could, at one point or another. That pair is adorable, and I hope you get a lot of wear/joy out of them!

I am so jealous of your galoshes!

There's an Edward Gorey illustration - "The Galoshes of Despair"...

 

[artful dodgette]

Also, do ya think my son could give some a run for their money? Ha, I shot the profile photo over the Fourth. I already trying to influence his style at six months.

I think the heel looks.... dangerous. For me (a self-admitted klutz), I'd trip and fall and damage myself in them.

These would be better for me, and have a cute 30's style heel: http://www.payless.com/Catalog/Prod...pe=Adult&Popularity=18&DescriptiveColor=Black

These are cute also: http://www.target.com/Xhilaration-S...e=UTF8&node=401866011&frombrowse=1&rh=&page=1

This page also has a lot of cute shoes: http://www.target.com/b/ref=in_se_p...cebin=&store=&size=24&rh=&page=1&fromBrowse=1

Because of my coloring, I cannot wear yellow clothes next to my face (makes me look like I'm going to vomit), but I'm completely digging the yellow shoes (both the Sugar and Sydney MJs)!! I might have to get them to go with the skirt I made out of this fabric:
