Fab Frock Friday


Happy Friday,
This weeks fab frock is from one of my favourite Aussie Designers Alice Mccall.




Pretty Hey?
The folk arty embroidery pattern is my favourite part, I'm a huge lover of the beautiful mexican embroidered blouses and dresses and this reminds me of those. It's incorporating the neon trend with the pop of orange on the bodice which i think add's a little edge to what could be a too sweet dress.
The cut out's at the waist are a pretty little detail and don't show too much skin.

Have a great weekend and remember to enter the giveaway for a copy of Sewaholic Patterns Alma Bouse, entries close monday AEST.
Good Luck!

Fab Frock Friday


I have decided to dedicate each Friday's post to my favorite dress of the week. I am a girly girl at heart and I think my love of a beautiful dress started early on, thanks to my dad. He was always buying me beautiful little dresses, i was the beat dressed kid around and it has stayed with me.

Anyway the dress I'm sharing today ticks all the boxes for me, style/design, vintage feel, great colour and print,  it has it all.




I love the total look, the black belt and clutch keep it from being to saccharine and the glitter heels and colour shades add a fun touch.

Since this is a sewing blog after all here are a few ideas to get the look for yourself.

The Burdastyle coffee date dress pattern would be perfect, and best of all it's free.
For fabric Tessuti's have a couple of gorgeous liberty of london fabrics that have that monet print feel.





Happy Friday!
