50's Inspired Bridal Gown


Being modeled by the beautiful Sarah. Has also been tried on by me before going to see Black Swan with the bf because we thought it would be fitting costuming heh (he actually suggested I try it on, I think he may have had different motives). It is made out of an ivory satin and white tulle. Armhole princess seams, 3 layer bodice (fashion fabric, inner corset, and lining), 8 layer skirt (waaay too much it was a nightmare to sew), and a rosette on the waist. Woo.

In other news, I am leaving to see C, Steph, and Oli early tomorrow! I have everything packed and have to weigh it again but it's done! Eeeeeeeeee! I can't wait to see them! I haven't seen Steph or Oli since May and I haven't seen C since August.  Reunions are always the best

Happy Christmas!

Ok, so I've not done a post in a million years so I figured I would start up again. I had a completely wretched semester this fall with tons of work. Also I've been sick since October. Yayyyy! Although I think I've kicked it to the curb this time with a lovely zpack. It wasn't an all bad semester though, I did get spend time with my friends and the bf AND I'm going to be spending next semester in NEW ZEALAND. Yeah, dream. come. true. Oh and not to mention I am going to visit my love C in England and we're going to travel a bit together! I'm So Excited To See Her! So there is my life over the past semester.

As for Christmas, it has been a pleasant enough one, I am currently sitting and watching a Christmas Story which is just a classic. Love it. Last night was the mom's side of the family get together at which everyone was surprisingly sober other than my sister who got completely sloshed. Today my mum and I are stopping in to see the dad's side of the family and my grandmother. Then the immediate family is coming over for dinner and presents. It should be lovely.

On a side note, I was looking through my December Harper's for the first time last night and I was shocked to see the photos of Katy Perry! Who knew she could look to chic?





I was flabberghasted. She looks amazing. You can find the rest of the photos on Harper's website!  So that's all for today, I'm going to cozy up by the fire with my puppies :)  Ta for now
