Roaring Twenties Dress Patterns

I don't get to sew much for myself but still have allot of patterns that I would love to make and these roaring twenties patterns from BurdaStyle certainly made my list!

The second shift with the bow is a classic and would be perfect for summer!

On my wish list...Vintage Mink

I love this glam 1960's vintage mink coat 

I found on Etsy! 

The chevron black leather/fur combo is fun and still modern looking!

Jacket to Bag

I thought it would be fun to start showing what the jacket looked like before it was transformed into a handbag.

A closer look... a touch of black

I love printed fabrics, especially florals with a 

black background.

Black leather jackets are quite easy to find in op shops and its a classic colour 

that goes with everything. 

I like adding linings to the bags that are colourful but still has some black in the print to compliment the leather.

Spanish Jewels

Love this jewel toned over accessorised look in Spanish V Summer 2012. 

Looks like they had a bit of fun in Photoshop too! 

Would you ever wear that many accessories?
