two dresses. three days. buckets of paint.
What do you do with three spare days while your sister is in town? Obviously, bite off more than you can chew! Except, that we actually pulled this one off.
In three days we made two dresses, completely from scratch, and then painted them to make them unique to each of us. Join me and Naomi on this little sewing adventure, and enjoy all the sibling shenanigans along the way.

In My Reputation Eras Tour Outfit! (+concert and taylor's version announcement...)

I got tickets to the Eras Tour, and just like everyone else, had to make myself something to wear... I've been a Swiftie since I was sixteen; this was a canon event. Thanks for tagging along on my adventure both to make this jumpsuit, and also see Taylor Swift live. Hope you enjoy!

Have you ever wondered what Greek Gods would wear on the red carpet? Or what Greek Gods would wear in the underworld? Or what the word "cthonic" means? This is the video for you! I had a great time imagining what the Greek God of the Underworld would wear, and trying out some new skills. Like all of my projects: it was the best. It was the worst. I will never be doing this again. The inspiratio...
I did NOT make a dress in a day... please don't put me on Project Runway

The challenge: make a dress in twenty-four hours. The rules: eat and sleep as normal, don't forget to stretch, and as soon as it stops being fun... cheat. The rules are made up anyway. Despite all the rage quitting in this video, I did have fun. Not enough to do it again (but this was a really good way to get this fabric out of the back of my closet). For my code-breakers: there is no code in t...

I had an idea. I executed the idea. Even editing this video, I could not make up my mind whether I like my idea or not. Technically, I decide by the end, but ... it's not a firm decision. I would let you all change my mind. Is this ugly? cute? so cute it's ugly?

Making a Medieval Tube Top (but it's Shae's dress from Game of Thrones)
Переглядів 5 тис.2 роки тому
Let's talk about it... a little too much! The last time I watched HBO's Game of Thrones, I got a little preoccupied with Shae's costume. With the exact shape of the dress. With who else wears dresses like it. With how many people wear dresses like it. It's a very easy dress to make, and with House of the Dragon coming out soon, I knew I had to sew one myself!

    I feel like I would have done this as a skirt instead of a dress. It has a lot more styling potential as a skirt. Like, that would be epic with a graphic tee for "I just feel like wearing it to brunch" or with something more obvious like a corset top for a dressier event. And really anything in between.

    Just now getting to this. I really enjoyed this video and the making process of the outfit. I love how close you two are as sisters. It reminds me just of my relationship with my sister and how when she moved out things just weren’t the same, and she’s a big swiftie too so that makes it even better! It made me smile so much watching this and helped me through a lot. I too love the 1989 album. When you mentioned having the music artist that just makes your life better, I thought immediately of Random Encounters because it’s so true. That is how I get through my hard days. So thank you for making this video to lighten everything even if I’m not seeing it until almost a year later and keep up the amazing sewing work!

Also for some reason, I was thinking a blouse was a skirt😂(I blame post work brain) Overall, the blouse is beautiful and definitely could have a matching skirt with it.

    Hm the dress could of used some golden gel dots too, I like the leaves but it feels blank and missing on the more upper parts. It looks good I just feel like with some golden and white pearl beads could of made it just kinda POP more. (I'm not at all a professional dress maker but I have a skill for making outfits that kinda click.)

    GWEN!!! Did you get a new ring for your wedding band?!? 15:09!! Your other ring was beautiful, and this one is pretty as well! Upon further investigation… it looks like that ring is a snake-ish ring, and your wedding band is turned around possibly? (Dude, I’ve told you about my squeamishness for snakes… 🤣) Do you mind telling the story behind the new one (if there is one) please? Also- congrats on 2k!! 🎉

    Oh goodness! I was able to watch your video Saturday, and I totally meant to comment but time got away from me! I guess that happens when you’re as busy of a chaos gremlin as I am… (3 jobs between my full time job and two part time jobs…) You and Naomi both did wonderful! Those dresses turned out so beautiful! 💚 Anywho… as for my guess… I see the lyrics you’ve thrown around… I’m still not a Swiftie, but as much of a Swiftie as you are, I’m guessing they are Taylor Swift lyrics… (if you’d have done something with Wicked or Phantom Lyrics… or even something with RE lyrics, I’d be all over that… 😂) Rumor Business… ummm… I do know Reputation is an album of hers, so I’m gonna go with Reputation. As for B…. Dude, I can totally see you making a Backpack since you like wearing them as your purse… but I don’t think that’s where you’re going. Something is sticking with me… when you first introduced your channel, you said something along the lines of making a lot of dresses, so since it’s not “D” for dress, I’m trying to think of what other terms could fall in the “dress” category… the only B term I’m thinking of would be Ballgown… but I’m hesitant because it might be too much… but then again, chaos gremlins don’t follow normal rules… 😉 So, in all that rambling, I’m gonna go with Reputation Ballgown. 😊
