Axis Dress: A Love Affair

Isabella Serrano September 24, 2020

If you follow me on instagram then you know t I love the Axis Dress by Papercut Patterns. I’ve made four already! From the front it looks like a simple shift dress, but when you turn around the back bodice criss-crosses, creating a V in the back (I LOVE a good V-back) and wraps around to tie in the front. Simple with a twist. What’s not to love?!

My Mindy

Isabella Serrano June 17, 2020

I got the opportunity to view Fibre Mood’s newest collection of patterns before they were released, as well as my pick of pattern to make! I just fell in love with Mindy. She’s the perfect summer dress with her sweet, empire waist and puff sleeves!

JUMP suit

Isabella Serrano May 1, 2020

About a year ago I saw a little video on Instagram from fashion brand, Zimmerman. It was a clip from one of their fashion shows and a model is walking down the runway in a lilac linen boilersuit with a standup collar, big bishop sleeves and an elastic waistband. Well, I just nearly fell in love right then and there.

Winter in Pink

Isabella Serrano April 30, 2020

It was the winter of 2019. I had been living in Germany for 8 years and I had never quite gotten used to be constantly cold. Back in California I could get away with wearing a denim jacket over a dress, but not here. In Germany my winter wardrobe was a black pair of jeans with a black turtleneck sweater, worn with black boots and topped off with a burgundy headband to try and add color whilst keeping my ears warm.
