Desire to Inspire 


I will keep this post short and sweet as I have been so extra lazy lately and it has been so amazing. However, I do apologize for my lack of blog posts ! I am just in the process of choosing what fabrics to use to make my first few pieces! I found an old single bed sheet at the salvos today which i think i will use for the fabric !! I cant wait to get started ! Anywho ! I have started my own tumblr which is one of the reasons for my lack of doing my own photos etc ! Here is some of the inspiration that i have found through tumblr and also if you want to have a visit the URL is www.apricotaccent.tumblr.com. XX

 World of Innocence.

" It seemed as if the whole world was slowly being stripped of its innocence. Or maybe I was just seeing a little too clearly."
I wanted to write in this quote that I read the other day in Just Kids, if I read this a year or so ago I wouldnt have understood but lately it makes a whole lot of sense. I am really up to that stage that I experience every couple of months where I need a hair change. I am thinking maybe grey/dark blonde hair at a medium hair length with blunt ends. I want to start making some two piece suits. I am thinking a really high neck to shoulder simple top with some well fitted shorts to match. Hawai/Greek patterns are making me happy lately. So maybe this will be my first fabric pattern attempt! I will keep you posted!
I also bought some amazing shoes the other day, a slight creeper platform, a high top fitted suede boot with some nice laces. I also bought some baggy 90s denim pants and a black wooly jumper to keep me warm on my long ventures up to Melbourne. I'm beginning to be swallowed by the whole 80s surfer neon look. Its all so exciting! Anyway last year I did a few photo shoots for studio arts! I lost my hard drive but luckily Samuel had these images on his computer. Thank GOD!
I hope you like them, a few are a bit blurry but my favorite one is of Sam and Bella. So FREAKING cute.
