So I figured I'd start with a look at my fall collection... I've been slaving away over the sewing machine pretty much since the beginning of summer and can finally say that it's done... fewf. Keep in mind that this is just a peek and that I'll be revealing more as I wear it in the fall. Please, be respectful and don't steal as these designs were very grueling to create. Thanks.
Item: Agnes Dress
Colour Combo: French Navy/Deep Blue 1996
Features: This adorable light cotton dress features almost cap sleeve, a petal collar, pockets, a tear drop cutout at the neck and a tie belt at the waist. Zips at back.
Note: I have always loved the contrast of cotton and velvet together, I think it's so pretty and just fancy enough to wear everyday. I also made it in red.
Item: Lake Dress
Colour Combo: Meadowlark/Deep Blue 1996
Features: This sweet dress features a faux button front, puffed short sleeves, a peter pan style collar, a thin contrast waist band and three layers of sweet cotton tiers. Zips at back.

Note: As you've noticed, this is a classic design in my closet. I've made this dress so many times it's almost a little silly. I can make it in my sleep. lol. But it's a classic for a reason and I absolutely love this colour combo.
Okay, there you go... tell me what you think... good? Bad? let me know. Stay tuned for more to come from this collection in the fall as well as my next post on things I've bought recently for fall.
