Talyssa is “My Golden Girl”

After seeing Talyssa in this golden yellow ensemble I pronounced her to be my golden girl because she looks beautiful in golden yellows. Fair skinned Talyssa has a beautiful ivory skin tone that definitely prefers certain colors and I think that this is one of them.

This is Talyssa’s first ruffled skirt. I think it fits Talyssa’s personality nicely; she is such a girly girl.

This is my last color to use of my vintage pillowcase looking fabric. You can see the other sets I made with this print in the other colorways here, here, here. I still have a bit more of each, so hopefully can make (at least) one more dress in each color.

Summer Means Lots of “Blue Skies, Sunny Days”

A picture perfect blue sky along with a sunny day is the kind of summer day I had during this photo shoot with Millie. It was a pleasure being outside and taking these pictures of her. I thought she looked lovely outdoors.

Millie finally got her very own light as a feather mohair/silk embroidered sweater. It is embroidered with sunny yellow roses and blue colonial knot sprays of flowers.

Millie is wearing her new wig that I ordered just for this ensemble. It is a mohair bob from Kemper. You can see it here. I needed to play hair dresser and trim it a bit because it was way long. Trimming the wig was actually quite easy to do.

Using the pool as a back drop added the most gorgeous turquoise color behind Millie. Secretly, I think she wished she could take a dip in the cool water.

Millie has a golden yellow blossom for you that she picked from the garden while we were outside. Isn’t she a sweetheart?

“Perfectly Pink” for My Sweet Little Darling

10 Replies

I hope you don’t get tired of seeing pink on my Little Darling because it seems to be Gina’s most favorite color in the whole world. Gina is a girly girl through and through and I love that about her.

I decided to call this ensemble “Perfectly Pink” because it is the perfect shade of pink, not too blush-y or violet-y, just pink. When this shade gets paired with yellow, kelly green, and white cotton accents it shouts summer, don’t you think?

Gina’s crocheted hat frames her sweet face perfectly. A matching band decorates the crown and a hand made wool felt flower and crocheted leaf draw your eye to this darling’s face.

Gina’s light and summery sweater is hand knit in white bamboo with a lacy panel running along the center of each sleeve. A pair of mirrored image floral motifs in coordinating colors adorn the center front of the sweater.

This summery ensemble wouldn’t be complete without a pair of crocheted ballet slipper shoes in cotton thread with matching roses on the sides of each shoe. I love the way these tiny slippers show off the Little Darlings delicately shaped feet and ankles.
