Sewing for a 'New Body'!

It has been a while since I blogged about anything really. So I thought why not start one by sharing my recent makes. After four long years of studying, I have had almost no time to sew anything for my 'new' body. When I say 'new body' I mean, my completely ruined body after two children. 

From having 6 packs, I now have a bulgy tummy (diastasis recti) even though I have tried several different types of exercises to help strengthen the muscles. I do get questions about whether I am pregnant again. As much as I wish I was, I am not. It's just that the muscles in my tummy have forgotten to get back together. Seeking an expert advice is the next step.

See the tummy!
Having said that, being the Fashionista that I am and having finished my BA in Fashion Design, my current plans are to create my own wardrobe that compliments my 'new' body. So here is a dress I recently made. The fabric print is from my own artwork. 




This dress style and cut suits most body shapes. It has certainly taken the eye away from the problematic areas. In my case the tummy. Very glad with the end results and believe it or not, I have had requests by other moms to custom make a similar dress for them. 

All in all this, design worked. I have another garment that was inspired by this dress to show you in the next blog post.

Till then, have a pleasant week friends. OXOX

Guess who's back!



Hi Everyone,

It has been a long time since I have been in this space. As some of you know I have been very busy with my final year in fashion school. I have graduated with a Bachelor degree in Fashion design. Since I am done with school, it only means I can finally be back to doing things I enjoy whilst working on building a small business.

For those of you who have followed me since day one, I am so thankful for your awesome support. I hope you will continue watching this space for interesting content and videos. Meanwhile, if you have any requests with regards to beauty, makeup or fashion design, just write it in the comments section and I will get back to you asap.

Till then, take care and I will see you real soon!
