some things i made this semester

as i mentioned before, my semester has ended & i have like 4 months off!! i thought i'd post pictures of a few things i made...

screenprinted wool and silk organza inspired by battenburg lace collars. i sewed a few clusters of sequins on the shoulder and on the side where the organza meets the wool.

naked ladies on silk dupioni. first of all, this silk is AMAZING in person...i bought it at stone mountain and daughter in berkeley. i printed some lace dresses as a second layer on silk organza, but they didn't quite match up properly. i think i like it better without them anyway!

pearls on organza. inspired by a clutch i have...i wanted this piece to be sort of an ode to femininity.

screenprint over itajime on wool gabardine.

some more photos are here!

phewf!

well, blog, i am back. after a whirlwind of a semester (the hardest one yet), i finally have time to think and post about things i like!

i came across this amazing apartment on design*sponge a few days ago and fell in love. it makes me want to paint my walls and get some awesome rugs.

first of all, they have a foosball table. those of you that know me know that i rock the socks in foosball.

i love the reds, pinks and greens! that fabric on the chair looks peruvian to me. awesome!

that wall with that rug...amazing.
