Before anything i want to wish you all a very happy 2016 ! i'm optimistic for this new year, i like even numbers, even thought the past ones weren't so great.. hope you had lovely holidays, the weather was "disturbingly" good , too good for the season, which made winter festivities a bit strange, felt like spring, was weird, anyway, here's some bits of my past few weeks:
thanks to my cats, one of my favorite skirts got bleach stains , couldnt fix it, and loved the fabric too much to throw it away, so made a kimono top out of it, turnd out ok.
carried by the sewing mood i added some lace to this old skirt too, because i was in a "dentelle" phase lately, which includes browsing vintage lingerie photos online for days and buying few feminine pieces that my wallet didn't thank me for.. ( excuse the blurry photos, still in search of a decent tripod)
new years eve is family time without a doubt, and what better than dinner to gather around, my cooking of course :p
and few days later was my birthday! never was and never be a party person, so birthdays for e are always about being cozy at home with my loved ones around me and obviously food!
lemon tart, mom's favorite.
all made by me except the black forest because i was too lazy ;p.
for this year i didn't wish for much as i already have everything i need, a caring loving family, a loyal friend and even thought i'm not working these days i still enjoy making the most of my life ! so Alhamdulillah.
hope you have a glorious year
see you soon
Imen xoxo
