I come each morning to see the new outfit you've put together...and it's always such a treat! I love the crisp outline of the dickey against the dress. I'm eagerly waiting for the debut of the blog! Hope it comes soon :).

Love this very much. Makes me want to go to thrift stores and find shirts/blouses with funky designs and turn them into a dickey -- very easy to do with basic sewing skills. Would love to get a sewing pattern of this dress. Can't seem to find any contact info for Eliza Starbuck...

Adorable! My pick of the last week is July 8th, "Gold Chains & Sue Cie". Looks like Madeline after becoming experienced.

oh this is just too cute - love! [except with different shoes]
Posted 1409 days ago.
It's hard to see the detail on the dickey--I can't help but think "dental exam." More power to you anyway--I actually have a few dickeys myself but have not had the nerve to wear them!

I'm inspired to get with the program. I'm a mom/clothing designer. My daughter and I love this project. Living in the midwest I probably design a tunic length dress, follow your lead with the front back thing and go with a denim. Thanks for your vision.

Okay, hated the floral tights from yesterday...but I LOVE today's outfit! The lace dickie (is that hand crocheted?) and the collar are so fined and elegant, the tights give it a more youthful flair, taking the sophistication of it down a notch so it's not too stuffy...and the shoes give just the right amount of POP! to make it "jeune fille", very French, I love it. You look like you should be working at some terribly chic boutique on the Left Bank. PS: I think you need different "Ratings" for outfits. Like "Sophisticated", "Playful", Elegant", etc.

Maybe expanding the concept to just one or two pairs of shoes and a couple of socks would make the project stronger.

Hi, I'd send you a mail yesterday.. i work for a daily magazine in Holland and we'd like to issue a piece about your site. Is it possible to send me 7 dresses (7 days) to publish? m.kolmeijer@sanoma-uitgevers.nl It has to go to the presser this Friday... Kind regards, Imelda

I think this project is very cool! You are a true inspiration for me! I like the way you mix the colours! I think it's even better that you do it for charity! Two thumbs up from me:)

I wish people would not comment on what they think of your hair cut and loose sight of the great big picture you paint with Eliza. You are amazing and everyday this cheers me up and gets me thining about how much and when I will contribute to this charity for poor children. And you have the best legs!!

I agree with Barbara that I would love to have a pattern for this dress. I haven's sewed in years but this could make me start again!

The idea is sensational and the dress is beautiful

lisa tagged this inspiring
this is a really interesting idea ...in one way it keeps everyone at a level playing field...but also shows a perosn's individuality in how they make it their own..
Posted 1408 days ago.
Will you be making a pattern of your dress available for purchase? I'm a larger woman, but this style can look great on any figure. My wardrobe is comprised more of accessories and this would be a perfect way to stretch the wardrobe in these lean economic times. I think you are absolute brilliant and every outfit is a great artistic expression, yet real and practical. Wonderful work!!

your vintage shoe game is SERIOUSLY serious. great haircut!
Posted 1407 days ago.
not sure that the collar will stay put all day long and after few movements it wont look as classic as it is on the picture.

sidney tagged this Cute
this is one of my favorite outfits...it's got a little-girl vibe that's also very retro. and YAY sockdreams! I live in portland, the home of the sock company, and I love to hear when anyone buys stuff from there.

I like the top half, but the leggings and shoes are kinda bad. :/

Very cute. However, I would try to tie in the shoes a little bit more - maybe via a bracelet or barette. I love how the tights pick up the lace on the dickey.

In biology, sex is a process of combining and mixing genetic traits free porn , often resulting in the specialization of organisms into a male or female variety (known as a free sex video). Sexual reproduction involves combining specialized cells (gametes) to form offspring that inherit traits from both parents. Gametes can be identical in form and function (known as isogametes), but in many cases an asymmetry has evolved such that two sex-specific types of gametes (heterogametes) exist: male gametes are small, motile, and optimized to transport their genetic information over a distance, while female gametes are large, non-motile and contain the nutrients necessary for the early development of the young organism.

You know, I don't really like dickeys. Hate them actually. But you do some really cool things when them. Keep it up!
