About Me

My photo
i am embarking on a project that involves wearing just three reversible dresses, made by me, for the next 6 months. no jeans, no skirts, no fun ballgowns just these three dresses. (obviously pyjamas and gym gear are exceptions). i just want to break my own cycle of consuming and obsession with stuff and i figure this is a good start.

one week down

ok first post. well i'm one week into the challenge and totally rocking it so far. unfortunately i've only made one dress at this stage so i've been running with the same two looks for 5 days now. hasn't really bothered me though. it's actually very liberating getting up in the morning and not having to worry about what to wear. plus the dress pattern that i have chosen is really flattering. you know slimming, makes my boobs look big. makes it a lot easier not having to worry too much about fat days. which is another reason that i'm doing this. so sick of worrying about whether i look fat or ugly in something. now that i have no options maybe i can start concentrating on other stuff. also totally renewed my love of the sewing. my sewing machine is really crap so i borrowed my ma's and i'm in love with him. there's no way she's getting it back. it's a little husky, a baby husqvarna which is kind of nice because the machine i learnt to sew on was a husqvarna. that was also my ma's. until i broke it. whoops. i won't break this one though. i'll treat it like the lovely piece of happiness inducing machinery that it is. in fact i will refer to him from now on as harold. i heart harold.
