Tiered (skirt) pants

I have pair of tiered pants that I wear that get a ton of compliments every time I wear them - I bought them from an importer of Indian clothing... they're the most comfy things ever and I love how the bottom is swishy like a big skirt....
so I finally got around to making another pair last night... J says they remind him of ABBA, which is not a good thing in my book, so I am hoping that I can style them so they look more modern than retro... we'll see.

I'm thinking maybe the next pair will be solid.... still, I like them.

Jumping Jack pants

The Design Director has been begging me to make her some wide leg pants from the scraps of the ones I made recently for myself. I finally finished them last night...
She put them on and immediately began to jump. "These are jumping jacks pants!"
I tried to get her to sit still so I could take a photo... these are the best I got.
(as I type this, she's chanting in the background, "bouncy bouncy bounce!")

Favorites from yesterday at the beach

Ever since I've been with J, I've put my interest in photography on the back burner. He's an excellent photographer, with a very unique eye and I've kind of left it up to him.
