Tag evening gown

from the runway – oscar de la renta – ndp – seattle

so pretty, so feminine, and i am in LOVE with that statement necklace (oscar also had the best gowns, by far, of the show)! odlr knows the shape of women… if you’ve ever tried on any of his clothes, they fit amazingly… for all the oscar de la renta photos, click Read more

red carpet ball – making a gown – seattle

red carpet ball seattle

i sometimes tackle more than i can handle.  and in thinking about it, it’s not that i think i can’t handle it.  it’s simply forces working against me.  (or my inability to say no to something fun? hmmm…)

last week was a bit chaotic for me.  i knew i had several key things to get done.  i was attending events most days… and i thought… i want to make my own dress for one of those.  i know what goes in to making a dress.  i went to fashion design school.  i am a designer, and i know how to sew.  just bringing you up to speed on my skill level.  but i didn’t really factor in all the other commitments, and things started getting hairy about thursday.  then i fell down my front stairs, and i swear pandora was released.  for the rest of the story and photos, click Read more

vogue – front row fashion – evening glam

i’m picky when it comes to dress up. i like comfort in my dressy. that usually means at least an a-line, and if i can swing it… something shift like. none of these looks were all that wearable for me, but they were certainly gorgeous. lots of jewel-tone and sparkle. see all 23 evening glam looks in the album.

jade is the perfect way to round out the gala series… what a dress. what a lady. she told me her bracelets have to be put on in a certain order… i love the quirks of people. very beautiful.

beatrice + steve – neiman marcus opening gala – bellevue

From needle+thread

beatrice was one of the nicest women that i met at the gala, and the first i asked to take a photo. i loved her necklace, and had i not been suffering nerves, should have asked for a close up… lovely! an aside, loved that most men were in tuxes!

jeri rice – neiman marcus opening gala – bellevue

From needle+thread

a woman with amazing style. i had never seen her, but when she told me her name, i think i went speechless. loved her beautiful roberto cavalli dress…
