A Marvelous Mess #19 and Fetaures!!!

I've been totally preoccupied over the past few days with a new baby in my extended family.......so sweet!! I was the designated baby sitter for the older brother. I forgot how nice new babies smell. They should have a car scent called "New Baby" and then all the Mom's no matter how stressed they might feel would be all smiley for their driving time. 

Here were my Fav's from last week:

Pudding Beach Cups from Sun Scholars. So funny and cute!! What kiddo wouldn't be thrilled to put this together for themselves??

And the post I am going to feature on my sidebar for a week is.....

Kimono Baby Shoes from Nifty Thrifty Things!! I am totally planning on making some of these for the new baby in the family!!

More Flowers!!

There comes a time in every girls day when they need more flowers on their dress. Because dresses without flowers are not fun, right? I recently updated a small gals dress and this is how it turned out!! Just layers of trimmed fabric flowers in two different colors and a button sewn on top. Then a few rosettes to balance it out.

 The little lady I made this for thought it as peachy keen!! I have to agree. I'm eyeing all the dresses in my closet wit an eye towards flowery possibilitites. :-)

Dresses All Summer Long at Joe Browns

I just discovered the cutest dress ever at Joe Browns online store:

Um, seriously......I  could wear this tea dress all summer long. It's vintage, it's delicate, and that pattern is *so sweet*. The truth is, I wear mostly dresses during the summer anyway. As a larger woman, I've found that dresses can provide a sexy, elegant figure without feeling frumpy and hot. Plus, then you get the excuse to accessorize with shoes.....'cause boys, not every shoe goes with a dress. We buy a dress and we just need to buy more shoes. Ah, the hardship. ;-)  If you check out Joe Browns you'll find all kinds of deals and sexy options. Take a peak at this tiered skirt:

They have got a unique selection of shoes including tribal and gladiator styles. Take a peek at these:

If you live in England, Joe Browns can help you out with more that clothes and accessories.....they can help you find some serious adventure:

Sphereing is only one of many options they offer to intensify your life!!
