Making My Own Clothes

Saturday, January 14, 2017

Hey all!

So update I turned 21 on Tuesday! WOHOOOO!!! I honestly had the most amazing time. My roommate had a get together at our apartment and toasted with me and I got to meet her friends and they were all nice/great people. Then my 2 best friends joined me for dinner for drinks and pazookie. If you must know BJs is my fav fav favorite restaurant. I did have class the next day so nothing crazy but it was still memorable. We ended up going back to my apartment to play board games and  mingle with her friends.

I am excited to post this outfit because... I made this shirt! I am incredibly proud of it and cant stop wearing it. My mom helped me with the pattern and picking something simple enough where I could work on it without her. I got that sewing machine for Christmas and so far I feel like a kid again getting to play with my big kid toy all the time. I have a vest I am working on now but I love this shirt. It turned out great.

I also got a new editing system for my photos which has me really excited. So bear with me while I find what I like since I am not used to it yet. I also am back in school so I am gonna try my best to have outfits lined up for posts but I may have to take a week or two break to make time for classes. But I promise I have some fun stuff lined up!

I hope you enjoyed my ramble and this outfit!

The Creme Vest

Monday, January 9, 2017

Hey all!

As you can see I got a haircut! It was much needed and I like the length when I curl it is always perfect. I love my hairstylist Lyndsey is great and she colored my hair a few weeks ago too. She is in Phoenix at Comb Sweet Comb if you live nearby I definitely recommend her. I am also back in Tucson now and classes will be starting soon which I am not too excited about. All my classes will be grueling so I am a tad nervous about that. And I could use at least one more week of break!


I have been looking into plus size boutique stores, and even just different plus size stores in general. I feel like its easy to get stuck in your circle of stores you shop at because you are familiar with them or they're popular brand. But I want to branch out and try other brands and stores and thats how I found this vest. Which has quickly become one of my favorite things in my wardrobe. I found this site called Curvy Sense and its not super cheap and whenever you're buying from a new online store you have to be careful because you have no idea how its made or the material or if they are true to size. but the material is really nice quality I am really impressed and I can tell it's going to last me awhile.

Tomorrow is my birthday!! I feel so old and I don't really have much planned but I am gonna take a few days to readjust to my school/work schedule and then post maybe on Friday. I have something special to post about because I got this sewing machine from Christmas and I made a shirt and I am quite proud of it. So I will be styling it and posting about it!

I hope you enjoyed this outfit!

It's A Marshmallow World...

Thursday, January 5, 2017

Hey all!

Last week my family and I went on a small day trip up north to Flagstaff. It actually snows there and its colder than in Phoenix and we wanted to go play in the snow! So we looked up some places to go and found this one called Fort Tuthill. They have different levels of hills you can sled down and provide tubes for you to use. Theres food trucks inside the park and they have little play stations with open areas for snowball fights and snowmen making.


My sister, mom, and I went down all the hills at least once and we held on to each others tubes and laughed the whole way down. My sister ended up taking a few videos and they are hilarious. I had such an amazing time with my family we ended up doing a little shopping around downtown area and grabbed lunch. Overall it was a fun trip and I hope we get to do it again next year.

I ended up getting my sister to take some photos of me in the snow. Which are so cute if I do say so myself. She did a great job and we had some fun taking them. My brother was trying to "help" by throwing snow on me. It never snows and its not cold enough to do layered outfits so this was my chance!

Enjoy!

New Year New Blanket Scarf

Monday, January 2, 2017


Hey all!

Happy New Year!!!! I hope everyone had a safe and fun time the other night because I know I did. One of my longtime friends and I got all dressed up and went to dinner. Which was so good I had this shrimp stuffed with lobster and mashed potatoes. After that we went back to her house to celebrate with her mom. Then we went to a few parties and just had the best time with the people there playing games, dancing, and watching the ball drop. I had such a great time and I am so excited for this new year!


I have been waiting to post these photos ever since my sister took them. She did such a great job. I have been wearing this scarf nonstop all winter break and will not apologize for it. This outfit is very minimilist and simple. I sticked to making the scarf the focus and having black outfit background with gold jewelry accents. These brown booties also have been my go to with this scarf. Overall I am just in love with this outfit.

I actually got this scarf from Screaming Owl and their site is really cute because you can do a solo scarf or you can do matching scarf with your friend as a gift or one for your daughter if you wanna match with her. The scarf is long and thick and the material is soooo soft so it has definitely been keeping me warm. Winter break is almost over for me since this is my last week and I am sad I won't have my sister's photography skills! Just kidding I will miss her and my family and then it's back to the real world.

Enjoy!

xoxo,
Malori
