Aleta The Mermaid

Aleta is a mermaid, she lives under the sea in a perpetual Summer, has golden locks, a sparkle in her eye and no respect for land lubbers. If she were to dwell upon the land, i'm sure she would wear a dress like this.

I haven't dyed anything in yonks and the rain didn't help my experimenting. I got myself some beautiful soft rayon, which is perfect for a number of my designs, it takes on dye really well too which is a bonus as i can just buy white.

This was a bit of an experiment and i wasn't sure what the end result was going to look like. First i dyed it yellow, then i thought it needed some pink (pink is very good for most things in my opinion. The vintage turquoise lace completes the dress and nicely matches my nails!

I really like it, so i'll most likely make a few more the same.

still sunny

I've been playing around with some new designs lately. I've got so many ideas for the future!
I'm not completely happy with one, i think it still needs alot of work. I love the vintage floral fabirc i used with the grey denim. I wish i had more of it! and i wish i didn't use it for an experiment! Ahhhh always the way!

I think i'm onto a winner!

 This outfit post is dedicated to my new favourite piece of clothing. An original Millie sweater! What's not to love about this bright pink handmade gem? Screen printed with one of Millie's original drawings, i think it's RAD!!

I toned down the girlyness with my latest op shop score - a sick black leather bomber jacket!
