Hi!

Hello there guys! It's been soo long and I'm soooo sorry! I haven't posted anything in over a month I believe. So here's what happened.

First, on July 10th my teacher called to tell me that I didn't pass this year at school. BAM. Bummer. 

I felt like my world had exploded and there was nothing left for me. I was absolutely devastated.

For a couple of days I could only cry and feel sad. But then I decided it was enough. The past year was a terrible year for me. I didn't feel comfortable with myself, thought I was fat and ugly and couldn't find the motivation that was necessery to get things done.

It was time for a change. I decided to join the gym near my house. Every day of the week (exept the weekends because then I have to work) at least one hour I spent in the gym for the past couple of weeks. I admit, it is tough. Very tough. But I like it. Working out makes me feel comfortable with myself. My body is healthy now and I'd like to keep it that way. I am not ashamed of my body when I go swimming and overall, I feel great!

So the first weeks of my summer holiday were terrible but now it's great.

I am currently chilling at the swimming pool in Rome, Italy! Yes! I love it here and the weather is great! Gonna be posting some pictures and blogposts this week. Look forward to it (:

Lovely Spring/Summer Fabrics

Good day folks! Today another sort of DIY blog post. Or actually, more of a sewing post? I dont' know exactly what to call it. Let me just begin at the start. I like to sew my own clothes. I am still in the learning process and I still need some help here and there, but I am okay (:
I started making clothes for the first time about two years ago, when I was 13. It's not like I make all of my clothes myself. Not at all! Just sometimes (usually during vacations) make clothes. My latest project were some really lazy and baggy trousers. I made those the past Holidays. And last wednesday, there was a conference where there are a ton of stands where you can buy fabric, patterns, needles, and everying else you could ever need for crafting. I went there with my mom and grandma (who also love to sew and to diy. I obviously got it from them) and I went looking for some fabrics. I wanted to find 2 very colorful pieces of fabric to make a skirt and to make another one of those lazy and baggy trousers (but this time I wanted summer-y colors).

On the picture on top of the page you can see the pieces of fabric I bought. I know it's not that clear to see, but there are 2 pieces of fabric, not one haha, although they look alike. The one on the left, I want to use for the other pair of trousers. The one on the right I want to use to make a bright and happy floral skirt. So far, I have made just 4 pieces of clothing: a pair of trousers, a pair of jeans, a blouse and of course the baggy trousers I mentioned before. And since almost all of them (except the blouse) are more winter/autumn clothing, I wanted to make something cheerful. Well, if you ask me, these pieces of fabric are perfect! Don't you think?


The teeny tiny picture on the right is a model of what the skirt is going to look like. Very wavy and summer-y. I love the pattern and it is not that hard to make. Whenever I have the time (hopefully very soon) I am going to start with the trousers, since I can wear those earlier than this thin skirt haha.
Spring, here I come!
