{Recreating Mrs. Maisel: Miami After Dark Dress Update}

September 25, 2020 by kelerr

A few weeks ago, I posted about how I was starting to work on my Marvelous Mrs. Maisel costume recreation. The dress in question was seen in the Miami After Dark episode, and it worn when Lenny Bruce takes Midge to the show and then they go dancing. I fell hard for this dress the second it hit the screen, and immediately had to think about how I was going to recreate it. The original idea had been to make […]

{Pattern Review: The Veera Dress}

August 25, 2020 by kelerr

It’s always really fun to find new pattern companies! Well, new to me in any case… some of the ones I find are new and some are simply ones I haven’t had the luck of coming across yet. Either way, I love discovering new (dress!) patterns to make! Recently, I stumbled upon the Veera Dress, from Tessa Roosa Patterns. I’ve had tons of fabric in my stash just waiting for the right pattern, and I thought that this one would […]

{Pattern Review: Sureau Dress}

August 21, 2020 by kelerr

I am constantly browsing Instagram to find new patterns to make. I love it when I stop and look at someone’s make, only to learn that it’s the same pattern that I stopped at and admired on another day or in another post. I love seeing different ways patterns can be made up and I love finding new ones that I want to try. More than once, this has happened with a Deer and Doe pattern, and it’s usually one […]

{My Makes: 2018 Highlights}

January 4, 2019 by kelerr

In 2018, I began transitioning my wardrobe from ready-made to “me made.” It kind of happened by accident at first, but after a while I realized I was buying more fabric than ready-to-wear clothing, and preferring my makes to the items I had bought in the store. After a lot of summertime sewing, I actually had wearable pieces that I had created with my own two hands, and I was excited to show them off. I feel the need to […]

{Sewing: July Projects}

August 1, 2018 by kelerr

Looking at this blog, you would think I’ve turned all my attention to reading lately, which is so far from the case it’s laughable.  It’s just that I’m determined to complete that reading challenge and to do so the same way that I’ve done the past ones: by writing posts about it.  My reading time, however, is actually very limited.  Even though I’m off for the summer and not working, between driving upstate and seeing friends and doing various activities, […]

{Makeup Review: Besame Cosmetics Lipstick}

January 23, 2018 by kelerr

I am completely obsessed with Besame Cosmetics lipstick. Like so much so that I tried a few samples and now own four of their full size lipsticks, all within a seven day span of time. Before we get into my full review, though, here’s a little bit of background: I got really into wearing red lipstick while I was in Europe over the summer. I’ve never been one for wearing lipstick very much (aside from Halloween costumes) but as with […]
