Need i say more about this hemline. 
It's perfect.

Some great new / old slingbacks.

Since spring is just around the corner, it was time to repair my slingbacks.
 
 


So after i did that,  I drummed up this piece of broken jewelry.  It is made from amethyst, which my upstairs neighbor would explain enhances your intuition. it seems like a good enough thing to have on your feet:




So i broke the bracelet in half, and voila!  some beautiful new shoes.


 My mom would say " twinkle toes" :)

Outfit concepts? MM!  I'm thinking up some pretty floral and lace dresses ~ <3

I wish this were me/ mine....

...but it is a portrait of Threeasfour designer Angela Donhauser 
as seen through the lens of DIETMAR BUSSE.
That works too. 
And it's on my blog now, so it's kind of mine :)

A date with a big white dress ~


I did this portrait of my sister in law, Kelly,  for her for Christmas.   I had such an amazing "date" with her dress at her mom's house. I just sat and studied it with my sketch book. I was just like curling up with a good book in front of a fireplace.  the lace was so intricate and so beautiful. the motifs on the dress never really repeat. it was as if the lace just grew that way and was pruned back perfectly symmetrically by a very crafty gardener.   i have a feeling this isn't my last portrait!

 so much love :)
