Noas' Libellule {Pinterest inspired}

Hello guys! Happy Wednesday! How is everyone?

As mentioned on numerous occasions, I went to see Harry Potter in 3 D last night. It was amazing. And I thought I should try to relate my {pinterest inspiration} to HP and here is the dress I really really really want to have, wear, could I sleep in it? It is a vintage Ossie Clark dress, worn by Emma at the HP premiere in 2009. It is just stunning. I love the colour scheme, the neck line and the fabric.

It was raining a lot that day, and the bottom of the dress has seen better days. But still, it is a really beautiful piece of clothing - and will be classy forever. So, how could I make it my own?

Well guys, my God fairy VOGUE came to the rescue, with a similar pattern that goes by the romantic name of V1030 (minus the ruffles!). I just need to find a pattern for the sleeves now... and seriously improved my sewing skills. I let you know how I get on..

So what do you think, do you love the dress? Will you pin it?

PS: Anyone with a pattern for the sleeves, please, please, please email me!

Noas' Libellule {13% Mondays}

Hiya Guys... Just come back from a long weekend away with Mr. M. This morning was really hard work for the two of us (3 snoozes on the blackberry-cum-alarm clock). And to be honest, I am still not really awake.

Made me wondered about Monday posts - what would like to work on? Clearly I love remembering the best bit of the weekend, but I need a bit of humour for the week ahead. You will remember my coup de coeur pictures of Mamika by Sacha Goldberger. They make me smile every time I look at them. And this is exactly what I need on Mondays, something to make me smile!

The post is called 13% Mondays, because of this quote:

'I always give 100% at work: 13% Monday, 22% Tuesday, 26% Wednesday, 35% Thursday and 4% Friday'.

The best bit of the weekend is the wedding of friends of ours in the Peak District.

Today's humour is quite topical, and I suppose, only for Harry Potter's fans.

Has not happened to me yet, but it may do!

What have you been up to this weekend?

Happy Monday everyone!

PS: This week will feature another new type of posts, involving shopping (I LOVE shopping) and making.. Stay tune, or follow me on twitter (@NoasLibellule) for sneak peeks at what's coming up.
