LOL...yes I am that in love with the style, so here is a fashion fix to get us through the long cold months, a fashion show, of indian winter fashon 2012

Beautiful new fashion trends

Sooo...in my new years sewing frenzy and excitement for the springs new trends i have been searching the new trends and upcoming styles and there are some delightful suits out now....or up and coming!  Seriously with all these lovely things how do you choose? :) Here are some of my favorites!

 Are'nt they lovely!  So inspiring...Isn't fashion wonderful, there is so much personality and whimsy, and what makes a person them selves in how we wear the garments, what we accessories with or if we use accessories at all, which shoes, how wee carry ourselves even effects our style...a dress can look different on different women.  Just because of who you are.  Style is a wonderful expression of our personalities, of where we came from and really where we want to go.  Fashion is like painting or drawing a new picture of our feelings everyday, for the many viewer we come in contact with to interpret how we see ourselves...and how fun is that!

Welcome 2012.

So 2012 is here and it seems like it came wayyy too fast :).  But I am thinking this year is a little different at least to me, i am not doing resolutions or intentions, I will simply have goals, to make life better and more satisfying for me and my family to bring our hopes and dreams closer into reach.  I always feel like the new year and all the pressure to be prefect at everything and the "right size and/or shape" and have you beans (some people say nuts, be we more crazy then that! lol) in a row, ready to take on the world!  LOL...I just feel frazzled when Jan rolls around after all the hustle bustle and am simply trying to "catch up" after it all....Why does it seem like my house had a tornado go thru it and that my family have worn two sets of clothes for like 10 days??  I didnt even have time to think about what this year could be or my goals this year. LOl that s what I have been up to today ::)  Sewing! and cleaning and sewing some more and dreaming about all the projects i can get done and the possibilities this year holds.  So a few of my goals are.....
-Get back to pre-baby weight
-Dance with Dear daughter everyday
- work on hindi every day till the program is finished adn move on to spanish (it will be time for dear daughter to learn another language too)
- sewing 10 things a month
- make at least a set of dishes a month and sell them.
- get my hair in good condition by avoiding heat until once on the weekend
- Make a menu plan for the week and fill it in every week (i usually forget :))
- Do one special thing with darling daughter a week, girly thing or fun for her.
- set up the sensory bins as she is old enough for some of them, and have them ready to go.
I always seem to get to January with the same goals as last year and not much changed, but this year I am pretty happy with my progress last year, and am looking forward to continuing on this year!

What are some of your goals for this year?  Happy new year and blessings everyone!

Delish Designs

So!  I've been drooling over a dress in the fall people style watch for awhile now and it is on my list of things to make "something like that", as I absolutely cant seem to follow a recipe to the letter or a pattern for the matter either, which is why cooking works out great for me and baking well not so much :)....My sister is the great baker in our family. Any how back to my dress inspiration for my next project when i finally get my holiday list of "to make" out of the way..............Is THIS!...

Isnt this a fabulous dress!  I love the skirt idea which is what i am planning oon doing something like that with the under skirt and 2 slits, but in a different color and material and top pattern as I live in a cold winter place :)

Aren't these beautiful!  I loved these when i was browsing and had to share....aparantly I am feeling like holiday party wear, and such.  I love the
 season and all the time we make for family and friends this months.  That's what Christmas is all about isn't it, and its even more fun when you have pretty things to wear to the functions :)  I love being a girl so much, is it great?

ALSO!....I saw this variation on a circle skirt...and just last night I was thinking in my sleep about making a skirt like this, and how it would turn out! So it was ironic that i came across it today....in a not so busy season it would have been a sign...LOL.
