The holiday season is coming up and my best friend, Coy, tells me I don't have a "little black dress" among my designs. I told her, "You know if I make anything it's going to be short". She pursed her lips, rolled her eyes and said "fine". So I proceeded to visualize something pretty, short, drippy and trendy. The latest fashion trend is definitely ruffles and I loved the opportunity to make a ruffle dress! So here it is.
It's made with a dripping spandex knit in black with gold specks on it. This gives it an overall liquid bronze appearance. Imagine this with some black fishnets and the highest black heel you've got in your closet! Beautiful!
Well it is complete in that I've figured out how I want it designed. I still have the black, mustard and red to do. Here's a picture of the white bag

Here's a picture with the my signature lining and specialty strap visible.
I stayed true to my design philosophy and kept it clean. It's actually a perfect circle. The straps are doubled, stitched and braided. I used premium black hardware for the closure and the d-rings. And of course, my signature sateen cotton fabric was used for the lining. That's done in black script over white fabric. What you don't see is that the two inside pockets are done with my other signature fabric that's colored black with white script. When I get a chance I really need to get a picture of that.
I'll be working on the other bags next week. In the meantime, if you'd like to see larger pictures and the listing on Etsy for it, go here,

Now it's time for me to work on orders.
