A.Co Designs top, Sirens skirt, Target necklace,
I hinted about this top, and for those of you who follow me on twitter, know that I made it myself. As I mentioned before, I've started sewing (and experimenting). I found this fabulous fabric (on sale of course, I am an amature) and thought it would make a great top with embellishment. Well, I was right and am loving it. Not only that, but I got several compliments and am so happy with how it turned out it's making it hard to tear myself away from the sewing machine!

The peep-toe bootie trend is still going strong and you no long need to empty your wallet to get on this band wagon. Aldo's Haga booties are great, but at $140, you'll want to get your wear out of them. However, if you're looking for something similar without the similar price tag, check out Urban Original's Qupid Gaze booties and poof! Stylish on a budget.
This time, I used the ol' Random.ORG counter as I received more than 50 entries! I listed all your names into an Excel spreadsheet in the order the comments were received. Any tweets I received and you didn't leave a comment, you still got an additional entry, I just added those tweets to the bottom, in the order they came in (oldest to newest).
And the winner is...
Congratulations Louise

On Thursday evening, I had my lovely bridesmaids come over to try on their bridesmaid dresses... that we ordered online. Yes ladies, online. Since our wedding is going to be somewhat non-traditional + my avid love for online shopping + the fact that I found the 'perfect' dress for the girls online = I said, 'What the hell!' and clicked the purchase button.
Well, the dresses have arrived and are even more perfect than anticipated. All the girls seem to really like it (some love it), and the colour is so vivid and gorgeous. Only two of six ladies need to get it tailored and yet still feel the size they ordered was correct (with some minor tweaking). I'm so excited to say the least and can't wait to see how they all look on the big day!
I've recently acquired a sewing machine (and by acquired, I mean 'borrowed' from my mom) and have been taking every chance I get to sew various things. I'm a very amature sewing, but am enjoying trying to make a few various things. Last weekend, I conquered a top (three actually) and when I showed them to my girl friend (CG), she insisted I try to make her one with an exposed zipper up the back. Unfortunately, I ran out of matching thread tonight, so the project is not finished yet. However, when it is, I will surely show you the results (provided it turns out).
* Today is the LAST DAY to enter my give-away !
