The First Sunday In Advent

I've made this decoration myself. It's based on a ready made ring of branches, decorated with small stars, beads, fall leaves, Queen Anne's Lace, big bows and fake snow.

Lazy days like today you woudn't normally have if it wasn't late autumn. Curling up in the sofa with tea, Fazer Mint (a favorite of both Prince Charming's and mine) and Trivial Pursuit without feeling the least unproductive since it's grey and wet outside is special to me. Today I'm leading so I might get revenge for the last time we played TP when Prince Charming beat me. We'll see!

Maybe I could make something like this myself?

Chloé Fall 2007 Strapless Mini Dress

This dress is very special - the construction looks quite simple but the result is astonishing! The fabric and the bright use of block colour really makes it stand out.

I wonder if I could make something like this myself... Probably possible if you have the patience and experience necessary. I have a sowing machine... in the basement somewhere, I have to admit. But maybe one day?
