snow on the mountains

coats by Just be... featuring lace up booties

Snow on the mountains , it's all about being warm and cozy this year. I'm bringing the poncho back. Warm poncho, skinny jeans and knee high boots! Making one out of charcoal gray sherling. Maybe I'll make more. I always want to make a lot of coats to sell, but never get enough time. So many ideas so little time...

Golden leaves

It was one of those golden fall days. The sun would break through and just make everything that much brighter. Leaves and laughter everywhere.

Fun Fall purses

These new purses are in the shop. Love the new fabric I just got in. There's a show in SaltLake this Friday at the Treehouse Athletic club. Really cool clothes and fun stuff will be there. Post info tomorrow!

Vintage Velvet

Ohhhhhhla la !! I just got in these vintage cut velvets. Some are from France some originated in Belgium and some I just found at estate sales. Sometimes I just get little pieces, and some were ready to be made into pillows. I just love the feel of old velvets. And the colors are so fabulous!! Just starting to make some new purses with them. So if you want a little history and timelessness to add to your collection. Check out my shop soon!

Giveaway on Facebook!

Loooove giveaways!!! I won this really cool shirt from a new designer one time. Whenever I wear it makes me smile, there is just something about people giving you something. This purse is one of my favorites. You get a little sampling of all these yummy vintage fabrics. Just leave a comment over on my Facebook fan page. You can just click the tab over there on the left.

Some new fancy ones for Jeni. She's opening up a fabulously beautiful store in Centerville. The store is full of everything she and her mom love.Check out www.madeleinelamour.blogspot.com for pictures.

Fall skirts

As you can tell Risa wasn't to thrilled to model for me. Actually she was in a really bad mood.She hates it when I say hurry the lights fading, put this on quick! I really need to get a professional.Let me know if any of you out there would like to do it in trade. So many new new vintage fabrics coming in!!!

The horse next door

It's nice having some horses next door. Piper wants one so bad.But this is a good arrangement for now.I've made these new black knit skirts with lace and applique, they are so pretty. The problem is I don't snap a picture of them before a show.So they've all sold already.I'm making more so I'll make sure I'll get a photo of them soon. Thanks again Heather for hosting a show.She makes the coolest hair bands. She's going to start selling them locally too! Should of taken a picture of that too.

Two shows this week!!!!

Two great shows this week! Getting a lot of new fall stuff done. New vintage fabrics and appliqued skirts!

vintage velvets

I'm getting in so many cool vintage velvets. I use table runners,table cloths or old velvet coats. The feel and thickness of these velvets are amazing. I love working with them. There's just an integrity to something that has lasted through time and is still just as beautiful. It's like when I see a very old oil painting and the richness and depth of the color are still present. Amazing to me that something can last so long, when on the other end of the spectrum I buy clothing for my kids and it falls apart after the first washing.
