i took the first picture right before i headed out to my hair appointment.  i think that this is the longest i have ever had it in my life.  i would have kept it at this length if it was easy to manage but it was hard to tame and just starting to get heavy so it had to go.  the second set of pictures i took a couples of day later with my newly cut hair.  it's lighter, definitely faster to dry but i am still a bit bored with it.  if you guys have any suggestions on something that i could do with my hair, that would be great.  i am open to anything! 
oh, and i am loving my bp oxford shoes! i pair them with everything!

it's so nice to be back on here!  took some quick shots of my outfit today before i ran out and ran some errands.  i know it's june and the sleeveless tops and short shorts should be out, but it still has been a bit too cold here in washington with the weather averaging to about sixty-four degrees on the regular.  tomorrow it is supposed to reach up to seventy-four so i am looking forward to that! i have been craving outfits that do not require pants. 
i am also soo looking forward to getting my haircut tomorrow!  it's been four months since i last had one.  blow-drying my hair has been such a pain.  
anyway, it's reaaally, really nice to be back and now it's time for me to catch up! 

ABSENCE.


time is flying by, i can't express that enough!  i apologize again, for not being able to post regularly.  these last few months have been the most taxing on my body and mind.  i am finding it really hard to balance school, work, family, and a fair social life.  
i wish i could make more time for my blog and follow-up on my favorite bloggers and followers but i deeply regret to say that blogging has been the least on my priority list.  my last year at the art institute is rounding up and the work-load has been really heavy.  apart from my 3 other classes, i am working on my senior collection and it consists of 4 outfits.  since i always choose to do separates because ready-to-wear is what i love, my four outfits include four bottoms (two skirts, two shorts), four tops, and four light jackets.
the above pictures are a peak into my third outfit and the process of designing a garment. 

1. creating a pattern plot for a top
2.  cutting out pattern pieces and muslin for test fit
3. sewing muslin test fit
4. fitting test fit on mannequin
5. cutting out fashion fabric
6. sewing fashion fabric
7. fitting the final top
8. close-up on the pocket
9. a peak into the skirt and blazer to go with the top

i have been a bit under the weather and i am hoping things will start looking up as soon as this quarter is over.  hope everyone is doing well and i truly appreciate all the comments and followers.  
-thanks everyone.
