inspiration nation – SHOWPO
Just a quick post about a brand that I have recently discovered and which I am drawing worlds of inspiration from: SHOWPO. This brand is young, fun and very feminine and the clothes flattering and down right gorgeous. I stumbled across their page when Pia Muehlenbeck posted a photo of her wearing their clothes on her Instagram account. Since I am a major Pia fan and the outfit was so stunning, I just had to go have a look! I was not disappointed and I have filled my cart to the brim with all the things that I think I really can’t…

I finally got a sewing machine! I am extremely excited as my hands have been itching to start making my own clothes. I spent last week slowly collecting everything that I would need to begin. New scissors, thread, pins, elastic, material…but no patterns. I know I should start by learning from existing patterns, but I have my own ideas.

Today I wore this top…
