Ladies Caroline Dress by Mouse House Creations

February 28, 2014/ Suzanne Winter

I fell in love with Hayley of Mouse House Creations' Ladies Caroline Dress when I saw her post teasers and then post her own version on her blog... but I was afraid. Afraid that the fitted bodice wouldn't be flattering on me, afraid that the length of the bodice would hit me at the wrong point and make me look even heavier, afraid that the full skirt would make me look like I was smuggling a 10 ton elephant through customs. And then I got an e-mail from my amazing friend Nell over at Windham Fabrics asking if I had time to whip something up to photograph in their new GOTS certified Organic Cotton Line. The fabric line, Petit Fleurs, is gorgeous. A combination of wild and tame florals and colors that fit this year's trends head on.

Coraline Clutch by Swoon Patterns

February 27, 2014/ Suzanne Winter

What outfit is complete without a great bag? I can see the light at the end of the tunnel for massively huge diaper bags in my life, and am dreaming of the day that I can carry some fun purses on a daily basis. For now I'll settle for a cute Coraline Clutch for date night.

The Coraline Clutch is a newer release from our friends and affiliate sponsors Swoon. It has multiple size options, a zipper closure to keep all your goodies tucked away tight, and an optional wristlet strap.

Women's Pencil Skirt (XS-XXXL) by Jocole

December 09, 2013/ Suzanne Winter

Have you ever had a moment where you look at a pattern and go, 'Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I want that for ME!', but then instantly doubt that said pattern will look good on you - yeah I do that all the time ;op I am a curvy girl, and pregnancy (well twins followed immediately by second pregnancy) have forever changed the shape I used to know how to dress.
