Me Wearing My First Designed Skirt

I am wearing my first made-by-me-skirt in these photos. Yes, i made this dashing pleated skirt & i am very proud of my self. I have never touched sewing machine before. I was always curious when i saw my Grandma's classic sewing machine. I couldn't stop imagining how that magical machine works to make the white lacy blanket that i used to use when i was a child. And now, i am overjoyed because i could make my first skirt by the domestic sewing machine by learning with all my heart at my university. My uni is also remarkable! I have learnt so much in only 2 months. I HAVE LEARNED TO MAKE KINDS OF SKIRT AND TROUSERS IN 2 MONTHS in pattern cutting class and even i have another astounding classes such as Drawing, History of Arts and Fashion System. Isn't it amazing? I feel so blessed for i could study in here. Maybe it was a bit challenging for me for the first time making the pattern and using the machine. But after working heartily and practicing a lot, now i do adore doing this.

Westminster Bridge

I am so happy for finally i could have a holiday. I could do photo shoot again. I usually have a very very busy college day. I even don't have enough time for sleep sometimes, But as i do love what i am doing, i have passion for it, it is never too tired for me to work. Today I went to cinema to watch Silver Linings with my friend, Shanka, but before that, we took some fashionable photos first at Westminster Bridge, just near my flat. 
The sun was shining brightly. But because the season is Winter, the sun set faster (before 4 pm). Sometimes it makes me miss the sunshine easily. What i wore for the photo was my classy patterned blazer shirt. OK, i name it by myself hahaha. I bought it maybe around 3-4 months ago. But i have never worn it before for photo shoot because i kept thinking what should i wear with it. It is just too beautiful.

BLACK AND GOLD FOR WINTER

As you know, my blog was actually at wordpress.com. But for some reasons, i moved my blog to blogger.com and it took whole day. It wasn't really difficult for me to manage my blog at blogger because i used blogger for my previous blog. But then for some parts, because i wanted to make my blog's design similar to my blog in wordpress, i asked the expert, Steffi Santa for help hahaha. And finally, it has finished. Here it is, my blog and because i am very excited, i made a quick photo shoot ( i twisted my brother's arm to take my photos) at my flat's garden. 
 



Winter is a magical month. It is when people feel anxious for their mid term exam yet for christmas in the same time. We could see Christmas decoration everywhere. This is what every people waiting for in a whole year. Winter also a super chill month in London but lately sun shines brightly. Then i choose black and gold theme to present it.
