This week has been a wild ride full of medial procedures and doctors appointments and waiting and waiting and more waiting for phone calls from said doctors. (more on all of that later) But I figured what better time then now to keep busy and sew myself a new dress. And FINALLY I decided to try … More the fringe dress: a diy tutorial
When I think back on the 90s, I have such fond memories of rolling up to middle school every day in my older sister’s Ford Probe while she rocked out to Nirvana and I hoping that maybe we could pop in my Boyz II Men cassette tape for just a second, spending countless hours worrying if Dylan … More indigo shirts and a dirt road
I can’t believe I am using the word “momiform” but it seemed like something a blogger would say so here you have it. This summer I have truly been rocking the same “uniform” every weekend. Because, you see, becoming a mom completely changes your wardrobe. And not in that I’ve-got-to-lose-those-last-five-pounds baby weight kind of way. But … More my summer mom-iform
Today I wanted to share a few 32 week maternity photos in my stretch lace homemade dress. I originally did not want to share these photos because at the time they were taken, I thought I looked so huge, my smile looked goofy, my hair was cray-cray, and my pale skin was almost as white as the … More Maternity Photos + a DIY Lace Dress

Valentines Day was not “the plan.” You were due to come on February … More What I Wore When my Water Broke: our birth story part 1

But when I walked out the door, Will said “hmm you don’t look pregnant in that shirt.” To which I replied “How is that possible, look at … More Tight Dresses + Big Bellies
Like all of Charleston, Will and I were rained in all weekend with little access off of the island that we live on. Many folks on James Island (and throughout the rest of the state) dealt with some devastating losses due to the flooding and my hearts go out to these families. Fortunately for us, cabin fever really … More all the baby things
I am happy to be kicking off this years selfish sewing blog hop, hosted by imagine gnats, Indiesew, and Kollabora! The timing of selfish sewing week was perfect since last weekend Will went on a “dudes hiking trip” up in North Carolina, leaving me to do all kinds of selfish things such as eat all the pizza, watch the entire first season of How … More Selfish Sewing Week: Three Ways to Style a Laurelhurst Cardigan
Happy weekend from yet another beautiful garden here in Charleston. I will never stop being in awe of this beautiful city. In fact this photo was taken on our walk from the car to see a play for Spoleto festival and on the way we passed at least three gardens. But thats not why … More The Bondi Top
