I was in a sad mood and really tired - I fell asleep at 18:30 and missed my pole class! I wore a dress I made a few months ago for the first time. I love this dress - it's pretty crazy (sheer floral/tiger print/Indian headdress nylon!). I don't want the first online glimpse of it to be a photo I take in my bathroom mirror... So no pic... Because of the sheerness of it I wore it with my new green leggings.
The day wasn't completely bad though. My parsley sprouted!!! I was so happy I was actually jumping up and down with excitement. I never imagined parsley ever making me so happy... ;) After buying the seeds a year ago I finally googled how to grow parsley and the stuff I read said it is one of the hardest herbs to grow and that it can take about 6 weeks for the seeds to germinate. So I was pretty discouraged and almost changed my mind about planting the seeds. But after just one week I have this!!
I may have put too many seeds in the container... the packet had about 2000 seeds. Why so many?? So I sowed a good amount of them... I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm not a gardener...
Day 26
This was a great day. This is a dress I never wear because it has been in my "to fix" pile since last summer. So I finally shortened the straps. Still need to take in the bodice a little. I met my friend Marko for coffee. I had to use all my powers of persuasion to make him come to the gym with me afterwards. I feel much less silly working out if I'm not alone.
In the evening I met up with a couple of my friends to
This is a dress I made a few months ago. I think I haven't blogged about it yet. I made it from a basic sloper. There are little scallops all around the hem. The fabric has a bit of stretch so I didn't bother with a zip - I left a kind of slit that closes with a hook and eye at the top. It doesn't stay closed all the time though so I may need to find a better solution.
I wore:
- Red and white striped dress - self drafted

- Blue striped top - self drafted
- Turquoise bikini - self drafted
- Black scalloped mini dress - self drafted

Day 27
I went swimming in the morning. It's so nice to start the day in the water but OMG am I tired... Too little sleep.
Another long Sunday at work. There was a stag party group staying. One of the group came down this morning to check out - with a mask. They all had masks made of the groom's face!!!
