LOVE!

ok, Rebecca Duyzer is my hero. I stumbled across her shop on Etsy, and holy cow! She's one Canadian gal with rockin style. I saw her garments, and immediately thought "this is so me" and I love getting that feeling when it comes to clothes.  All of the items are designed by her and are fair trade!

Look how she can make grey look so glamorous! (I have a weakness for grey)

The unexpected, and geometrical pockets totally tickle my fancy.
I love these long sweater dresses with the oversized cowl... friendly for nursing moms! Now that's thoughtful.



I've been thinking about sewing A LOT lately... mostly because well... I've always got something crafty on the brain.. but with my new sewing machine, I keep dreaming about one day making my own clothes. I know that this is no easy feat and that it takes skill and lots of practice and experience, but I can dream right? Rebecca's designs reeeeeally inspire me. *swoon*
Also, make sure to read her interview about quitting her day job to design full time.  See? Totally hero worthy.

Anyways, I should get some shut eye.
xoxo, holly
