Aqua Coffee Filter Dress

Hi everyone,

I recently found out that the Aqua building in downtown chicago is the only skyscraper in Chicago with a women architect.  This inspired me to make a dress based off of it.  I wanted the dress to be made of something other than fabric.  One day I was looking at some coffee filters and it reminded me of the wave like affect the building has.  I then dyed and painted each one, and sewed them together.  I also wanted the dress to be very feminine to represent the women architect.

Holiday Sweaters

Hey everyone!
So the holidays are right around the corner!  I have been busy decorating and listening to christmas music because I LOVE the holidays.  It is by far may favorite time of the year.  The christmas season is a time of year you can get away with wearing a tacky but fun sweater.  I was shopping online today and I notices many designers are selling christmas sweaters.  They are all very fun and creative.  So here are my 11 favorite holiday sweaters :)
