Two for joy Annabelle dress

by almondrockon June 11, 2019November 17, 20242 Comments on Two for joy Annabelle dress

Hello everyone! I was unbelievably excited to see the Dior exhibition at The V&A museum this weekend.

Eve Sew Over It dress

Hello everyone. It’s Sunday and I’m finally sitting down after a week at Centre Parcs where 4 our of 6 family members had stomach bugs and after a busy but brilliant trip to the Dressmaker’s Ball in Leicester.
