A word from the artist:

I love the perky little tie on this top and the sweet little puffed sleeves. It makes me think secretary, somehow. The soft sage and tan print are fun without shouting, but the sleeves and tie will get you noticed.

Summer is here with it's warmth and color. Find something to wear to that special event or just to make you smile. Retro fashions inspire me and you'll find lots of handmade retro goodness to love as you browse the shop. I create from the design up limited edition or one of a kind items. Some are from new materials and others are made of recycled fabrics. I love to find vintage fabrics or sometimes clothing that needs re-thinking and do something fun!!

Put on your shades for this one. This week's artist is LittleDickensDesigns. I chose this artist because it's the beginning of summer! My kids just got out of school two days ago and we're headed to the pool! This sun print made me smile. Click on the pic below to see the entire store.
