Thanks Sis!

My older sister wrote me an email recently asking if my boobs were still small. I checked. They were. I'm not holding out for a change in that department. One benefit of this slightness in bustness, is that sometimes other people buy clothes which turn out to be too snug around their less small bust. She posted me a blouse which no longer fit her.
Jaw dropping moment when I saw the Emerson Made bag that it arrived in. (Emerson Made is now Emerson Fry it appears). This blouse was my inspiration for this and this project, but this one is made in silk!
I adore the pleated neckline and the sleeves are just right. The blouse is possible half an inch smaller than I'd like around my own bust/back, but fits just fine so long as I don't undertake any aerobics while wearing it.

I don't think I'd ever buy a blouse this expensive, so it feels quite luxurious to own. Thanks Sis - I love it!

In other news, check out this cool cardigan that I picked up today from Target in the kids section!
Why do kids get all the rainbow coloured clothes? For $17 I had to have it. How funny will it be when I wear it to school and students notice that they own the same cardigan?? He he!

  3. I have brothers but they can be just as direct!

    It's a pretty little top - but I think I actually like the one you made even better~! True, you'd be hard pressed to find an adult rainbow cardi in the shops...

  4. Thinking I might have to go and buy myself on of those cardigans:) I often pick up things in the kids section (being small busted has it's benifits.

    Love that top - lucky you and nice sister:)

  6. Gorgeous top. I wish I had less boobage and could wear those styles. The grass is always greener I guess.
