Dresses

There is just something about dresses that i love. I have always loved dresses, even when i was going through that moody, pre-pubescent "i will wear only baggy, black clothing" phase. I was just in denial.
We have what i like to call a progress report from when i was little, and it says that my favourite activity is to "twirl about in frilly dresses" which is still true today.

I have several favourite dresses, but my upmost favourite i have only worn once.

I bought and altered it for a party in.. oh, about October last year? Being quite a major party, everyone has seen this dress, and i'm not one to never wear a dress i like twice, but it was at this party, in October, that i met mister Michael who then became my boyfriend in April. So it's kind of linked with that memory... meeting a really nice boy who wasn't on the internet and actually took an interest in me for the first time. 

I really want to wear this dress again, though. Ah well maybe i'll have the confidence to soon.

In other news, here are a selection of dresses i have loved over the years from ModCloth.com, which i plan to sew at some point in time (probably this Summer)

 

I'll let you know if i make any dresses this Summer, which i should do, because they are so much fun to make.
