The Curvy Elle: The Blog

1. I thrifted some vintage McCall’s girl’s dresses patterns recently, this sheet was included. Hard to believe this is real.

2. My new venture (which I have not formally announced on here and am still working on getting started), Elle Enfant. This new shop features Children’s Modern and Vintage Fashion.

3. My birthday was a few week’s ago and my boyfriend got me these lovely red sparkly “Dorothy” (as I refer to them) sunglasses. (He even picked them out/suggested I try them on!) I love ’em!

4. Lulu, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, likes my new sunglasses too!

***

5. I’ve been working on some handmade bow and other accessories. Coming soon to The Curvy Elle Shop! (One brooch is already for sale!) It makes me happy to try new things and make cute things.

6. Experimenting making headbands in addition to brooches! Not sure if these will make it to the shop or not… I’m still getting some of the fit kinks out.

Curvy Elle Lately

July 1, 2014

A lot has happened recently in my life, here are a few snippets of those events through some Instagram pictures. (Remember to make sure to follow me, if you aren’t already!)

1. I made a tough decision to move The Curvy Elle Studio & Show Room out of my rented office space and temporarily into my mom’s house until I decide where to move it permanently. A bittersweet goodbye, but I’m hopeful and optimistic for the future!

2. An autograph of Lena Dunham my mom brought back with her on a trip to New York for a conference. The story behind the message is: In typical “mom style” she told Lena that she had a daughter her age. Her response was to say, “we are age twins!”

3. The metallic trim on a beautiful vintage dress I thrifted recently.

4. The mess at my mom’s house in the midst of my office move.

***

5. Helping my grandmother give herself a home permanent. You don’t see that too often!

6. Setting up my new studio space and Lulu the Cavalier decided it is her favorite new place to take a nap!
