What I'm Wearing

Just splurged and bought myself some awesome new bras, and for some reason they are all blue! I get carried away with color sometimes! This is the Lure or Be Lured Bra by Elle Macpherson Intimates. I just purchased it from Lille Boutique. I love the straps!


This is another by Elle Macpherson- she makes the best basics! I purchased this "Hula Hoops" set for a friend's lingerie shower and went back to Journelle and bought it for myself!



And last but not least, the best bra in the entire world! I want it in every color! Everyone always raves about the Timpa Duet bra, so I had to try it. I honestly never want to take it off. I also bought this one at Journelle.


And now, back to sewing thousands of Valentine's orders!

Inspired

I'm sitting here on a Saturday night wearing one of my new bodysuits, drinking wine and listening to French music and feeling very inspired!

I've been daydreaming about creating my own textiles- something I always wanted to do from day one! I'm thinking about the bigger picture, and although I love collecting and using vintage prints (which I will continue to do as one-off's) the prints are sometimes limiting. I can't take bigger wholesale orders with them because the fabric is limited, sometimes I find the repeats to be too far apart or too big for the small pieces that I work with, and sometimes the fabric quality is not up to my ideal standard.

I've been looking at Miu Miu prints all day- I love the way they clash so well! I also ate a macaroon today from Cookie Road in Greenpoint, and it was such a beautiful color! I may be dying some coral fabric in the near future...also so obsessed with anything sheer right now...
