YOU KNOW THAT TALE OF THE HAIR DRESSER WHO NEVER DOES HER HAIR? I WOULD BE THE DESIGNER WHO NEVER WEARS HER OWN CLOTHES. I USUALLY RESERVED MY CUSTOM LOOKS FOR A SPECIAL OCCASSION. THIS NAVY AND GOLD TRIBAL PRINT IN SILK WAS ON RESERVE FOR A BRIDAL SHOWER I WOULD LATER ATTEND. THE THEME FOR THE ATTIRE CALLED FOR FABULOUS AFRICAN AND ETHNIC PRINTS. I THOUGHT, PERFECT!!

THE MORNING OF MY FAMILY'S ANNUAL 4TH OF JULY BBQ/ POOL PARTY. I WOKE UP WITH NOTHING EXCITING TO WEAR. EXCITING MEANING SOMETHING THAT FELT NEW, WEATHER APPROPRIATE AND FESTIVE ENOUGH FOR THE SERIOUS AMOUNT OF DANCING THAT WOULD COMMENCE. OH OUR FAMILY AFFAIRS ARE NO JOKE!

THIS WAS ACTUALLY THE THIRD FABRIC STYLE I TOYED WITH, I WOKE UP AT 6AM THAT SUNDAY KNOWING I NEEDED TO CREATE SOMETHING FLY AND FAB IN A POCKET OFTIME. I FELT FEMININE AND CAREFREE IN THE STRAPLESS ELASTIC BAND TOP. THE CUFF AT THE HEM OF THE SHORTS ADDS A TAILORED FEEL TO THE RELAXED FIT.

I RECEIVED SO MANY COMPLIMENTS THAT DAY, AND A HANDFUL OF ORDERS. I LATER ENDED UP WEARING IT AGAIN TO MY GIRLFRIENDS BRIDAL SHOWER. IT WAS SO WELL RECEIVED I KNEW I NEEDED TO ADD IT TO THE SITE.
