Day 19

This is the outfit I wore for day 19. It consisted of a bought skirt and my me-made Sencha blouse. I haven’t worn this one in a while so I felt it was due time. Plus….check out my new shoes! I love them but the husband is not as fond of them as I am. [...]

Whew, I know it has been a while; still not feeling 100% but am praying I will be better soon. Day 9 was spent in Nashville with some of the in-laws for Mother’s day and I wore the same outfit as day 1 with the addition of a blazer (it was a little bit cooler [...]

Here are days 2, 3, and 4 of Me-Made-May. Day 2 was spent inside cleaning and being a bum (which was great) because of rain and I stayed in my jammies and cleaning clothes all day and sadly did not wear anything that was made by me. Maybe I will make some lounge pants… For [...]

I REALLY need to finish my Beignet skirt. I can’t wait to wear it as a part of Me-Made-May. It will go with so much! The Beignet and I are not friends anymore. There is something about this skirt that I am not crazy about. I tried working on it last night and threw in [...]

The first day of Me-Made-May as well as the Kentucky Derby! Unfortunately, the husband and I decided not to go since the weather seemed so poor. We live about an hour away from Churchill Downs. It would have been wonderful to go, play dress up, and wear a gorgeous hat, but it has been raining [...]
