On Emma, Q's Daydream Picnic Playsuit

On Me, Lolita inspired dress, Made by Me

Last Saturday Jonny and I met Emma and her hubby Tyler for a picnic at the park. It couldn't have been a more perfect day to do so! Emma and I chatted away while the boys did the same. Tyler and Emma are such a wonderful couple. Love them! :o) Emma just happened to be wearing the Q's Daydream Picnic Playsuit. Not planned, I swear, lol! Doesn't she look adorable!? The dress I'm wearing is one I whipped up inspired by a dress in the 1997 film Lolita. That movie is seriously the BEST Spring, Summer inspiration film ever. Anywho...

Thank you all SOOO much for the sweet comments about Q's Daydream Handmade! They really mean a lot to me. 

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! xo

My Dream Trench Coat

This past weekend I finally got the trench coat of my dreams! Seriously, I've been looking for the perfect trench since I was 12! Anyway, a couple months ago I saw this one hanging in the window at Anthropologie. I loved it right away, but couldn't bring myself to go in and try it on because I knew it was expensive. Almost everyday I had to drive by that window to get where ever I was going. It even got to the point that the lady I work with would say, there's your trench Quincy, lol! This past Saturday Jonny asked if I'd like to go look around at Anthropologie. (I have a cute hubby) He knows I like to wander there for inspiration. I headed back to the sale section and guess what was there? My trench coat, on sale, in my size and it was the last one left! How could I leave without it!? As far as I'm concerned it was meant to be. I don't think I'll ever take this coat off.

So, that's the story of my dream trench coat. Slightly silly, but it's true.

Also, Happy Halloween! I'm not dressing up this year, but in my new coat I kinda feel like a modern day Audrey Hepburn.. and who wouldn't want that!? xo

Evening Light

Hello lovelies! I hope everyone had a nice weekend!

The dress I'm wearing is one I made a couple months back. It was somewhat inspired by one of my favorite dresses from Lena Hoschek's S/S collection. I used and early 70's pattern that I had bought on Etsy in the spring. I'm happy with the way it turned out, but next time I think I'll use a lighter weight fabric. Unfortunately making this dress didn't seem to diminish my desire to own the Lena Hoschek dress it was inspired by, hehe.

Also, you might be able to tell these pictures are a little fuzzy. Well, that's because I'm still using Jonny's phone to do outfit posts. I'm hoping to have my new camera by Christmas or maybe sooner! So, until them camera phone pics it is, lol. Talk to you soon!
