You are so cute and chic! And above all, I miss you a lot!
Miss you too, Vanoue, and your beautiful smile 🙂
Great article! Learning to sew has been on my to do list for so many years. Creating your own garments can be such a liberating experience I really need to start sewing.

Hi Lily, great article! I love that you are becoming a worldwide phenomenon!
Interestingly, the same article that inspired you seems to have inspired another post, very similar to yours, on the Daily Life site: http://m.dailylife.com.au/dl-fashion/fashion-coverage/could-sewing-your-own-clothes-improve-your-body-confidence-20130902-2szpv.html
Interesting points. I recall looking at a Barbie dress in Miss Selfridge recently and the difference between the 6 and 16 was literally 1cm. It made me sick. Had I tried that on, I’d have been so annoyed at it not fitting, but when you realise it’s almost the same as 5 sizes smaller, it’s no surprise! Other than when I freaked out at going from a 12 to 14 years ago (was actually embarrassed to buy/try on clothes in that size), I couldn’t care less what the label says. I’m now mostly an 18/20, but like you say I have everything from a 14-22!
Great article 🙂
Perfectly Lilli sized! Can’t put it better.
You’ve inspired me to enrol in a beginners dressmakers course at Adult Ed – time to finally learn how to use that sewing machine! thanks Lilli 🙂
I can totally relate to what you say in your article. I am currently learning how to make my own clothes and it is truly liberating!
