On the other hand, I Love the turquoise inspiration, there is something calming and refreshing about that color so that even when it's hot, it gives the perception of being cool.<br /><br /><br />I am also super sad with Google Reader- I am going to test run Feedly and Bloglovin now that I have to I suppose... :(Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-90322148958316609842013-06-29T01:20:45.388-07:002013-06-29T01:20:45.388-07:00I recommend using Feedly as the new reader, you ca...I recommend using Feedly as the new reader, you can import all the stuff from Google reader in one click.Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-69293164113768783672013-06-28T11:11:37.276-07:002013-06-28T11:11:37.276-07:00can never go wrong with black and white as your co...can never go wrong with black and white as your color combo!Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-52060545108469189422013-06-28T07:09:06.378-07:002013-06-28T07:09:06.378-07:00I'm so bummed about Google Reader - I don'...I'm so bummed about Google Reader - I don't like Bloglovin nearly as much but oh well, it will have to do I guess. I'm glad I still get to read my favorite blogs, like yours! <br />I love love love bright colors for summer dressing. I wish I had more time to sew up all the pretty things in my head. I'm trying to see how much I can get done this weekend - I'm thinking a Lonsdale or a Peony or a caftan and some shorts. By the way, my favorite pic is the one with the turqoise in the bedroom. What a lovely room!Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-25526809650834174492013-06-28T07:07:56.259-07:002013-06-28T07:07:56.259-07:00You totally scared me with the whole bad news abou...You totally scared me with the whole bad news about blogging line. I was like, "Oh no, is she quitting???" I had to scroll to the bottom before reading the rest of the post. I'm a bad news first kind of girl. :)<br /><br />Anyways, I absolutely love all of your inspiration, especially the black & white picture. The one I'm not sure about for me is neon. I think it would go well with my skin tone, but I'm having flashbacks to clothes from my childhood when everything was so ugly, mostly because it was ill-fitting, not necessarily the neon colors.<br /><br />I've been into gold and yellow a lot this spring/summer. My favorite nail polish is glittery gold for the summer (it goes with everything!) and I just sewed up this yellow peplum skirt last week (http://vintagezest.blogspot.com/2013/06/hello-sunshine-peplum-pencil-skirt.html). Thanks for your inspiration!Adventures in Dressmakinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00276208940528297433noreply@blogger.com
