I'm back!

I'm back from my trip which was great. I will spare you the details but I got to see LA, San Francisco, a town in Oregon and Vancouver again. I did some shopping, with a few highlights (Polaroid film, floral shorts, a shirt with a cat on it lol) and I spend some good quality time with my family, so that was nice.

I came home Sunday and had my last pattern drafting class on Monday so I had to pump out the homework. My final project was to design and construct a menswear garment. I decided to make a motorcycle vest and I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I thought I would share it with you guys!


The hem isn't done yet but I couldn't believe how well it turned out in about 2 hours of work! I'm really pleased :)

And another note, why hasn't anyone told me about Winklepicker boots? I'm in LOVE!


I especially love the red ones. Red cowboyish ankle boots have been stuck in my head lately for some reason. I've been trying to find some thrifting but no luck yet. Maybe I'll have to order these, but they're almost $100... yikes. Check out the rest of the boots here!
