Fashion friendly item of the week  

0 comentarios

I know it's been 4 weeks since my last fashion friendly item of the week. My apologizes to the people that keep adding photos to the pool.
But today I am back on track and hope to be more consistent =)

This week: Victoriana Scarflette - Luxurious Knit Wool and Bamboo Collar by TickledPinkKnits

Now that the weather is changing and getting cold (at least that is what is happening here... where is the summer!!!) we will need some warm clothes, and this scarflette looks fabulous!

And if you rather have something bigger to cover you:

I would like to announce my new collection!!! =)
Yeah, I finally finishied the catalog, and here you can see it:




If it doesn't work or want to see it full size, you can see it here: GilBea at issuu

I will be adding the new items to the etsy shop this week.

The catalogs I made last season were so popular that I decided to launch a new shop: LarumbaDesigns where I offer catalog creation. There are many options:

1. You can buy a premade template where you can place your photos
2. Have me create a custom template for you
3. I can design the whole catalog!

And more options of course =) Hope you like it!!

Let me know what you think about the catalog, the new collection, and the new shop!! =)

I thought I could get into this graphic adventure since I'm "between jobs" - lol - still looking!

Well, I know it should be finished by now... but I'm a big procrastinator! (is that even a word?)

Anyways, apart from the regular t-shirts with a piece of silk sewn to it, I'm making silk tops! I'm new to sewing, so they are nothing conventional, I'd say quite quite different. Here are some pictures:




I am also making silk bags, for which I'm going to use some of this new designs:


Looks like my drawings are becoming more and more abstract... (thanks to Miro!)


Anyways, let me know what you think about this! :) Would you wear this kind of shirts? I plan on making them a little bit longer so they cover tummy down to the trouser and the sleeves a little shorter.
