I forgot what count I’m at for featured Websites of the week…

so I’d like to say that this is featured website of the week…_____

I was looking around for pictures of Judy Jetson for my History of Halloween Blog when I came across a very pretty dress and I clicked on the picture. I was taken to the Blog of a woman who is using patterns she sees in fashion magazines like vogue to create her own wardrobe. This girl then models the clothing she’s made and blogs about how she made it what he problems were and how a person can do the same thing back home.

I particularly like this website because it reminds me of the old fashioned values people used to have…where woman would make their own clothing and a mother would present her daughter with a prom dress or a new blouse. A real timeless feel that I never received from my mother or grandmother because they aren’t the type to knit or sew…they are rather the type to buy you new clothing or pass it down to you.

I feel that when I get older I’d like to be the kind of woman who has the skills to make my own clothing as this woman does…I wish I could hire her as my personal tailor so she could make dresses for my body that could fit me and look as nice on me as they do her.

I can really see where she is coming from for what she thinks is beautiful I lOVE HER STYLE!

The Blog I am Featuring is Called Very Praire:

It is owned by a young woman who I have yet to learn the name of… who started the blog in 2006. She goes by the alias Very Prairie…she poses for most of her own work and she is very beautiful check out her site you’ll be amazed at what she can do!
