Feathered

Hi love!


There are moments in this life when you find something that your soul just lives for; you know, that feeling you get when you're doing something you love or when you're with someone you care about and you can feel it in the very depths of your bones, that burst of purpose & strong intention. For some, this feeling might pertain to a person, for others, your passion and love might be found in your work. For me, my soul craves the life of creativity, my spirit just lives for it! That feeling of putting your whole heart and purpose into a creation gives me such a high! Creating has always been with me, it's what I know! I love finishing a project and taking a step back to look on it and gazing at the work that my two gentle hands have put together. I surprise myself with the things that I'm capable of! 

Today, I want to share with you, one of my latest creations; one of the projects that I've been most excited for (mostly for the fabric itself)! Really though, can we just take a moment for this fabric? For those of you who are new to A Girl Named Latisha, I've currently been obsessed with fashion and creating my own clothes. I've never had much luck with sewing machines, but within the last couple months, I was given one to call my very own and I have spread my wings and soared since then! I love the feeling of being completely in control of designing & creating my own line of clothing, I think it's the freedom of expression that I love the most. 

I've shared another one of my pieces last September, which you can find here, in case you haven't seen that one yet! Since that post, I've been sewing so much more; coats, blazers, vests, you name it! I'll be sharing more of that in the weeks so come so make sure you're subscribed to A Girl Named Latisha to keep up with all the loveliness to come! 

As for now, I bring to you one of my favorites. I'm totally a girly girl, I love makeup, hair, & lately more so fashion. I styled this skirt with a ribbed long sleeve turtleneck for New Years Eve this year. I love a good reason to go all out with my attire & this skirt was absolutely perfect! It has the perfect amount of spice and spunk while still being completely feminine with how big and fluffy it is! What more could you ask for to kick off the New Year, you know?!

Do you sew or have you ever thought of starting? What should I make next? I'm quickly falling in love with the process, you'll be seeing more from me for sure! Enjoy my love! 




XOXO,
Latisha

  4. Latisha! This skirt is gorgeous!!! That print is so romantic yet has some mystery to it. Amazing work girl! I totally agree with you about the creative process. It can be such a high!! I can sew a little and have a sewing machine, but I've only ever manages to make small things (bow headbands for my daughter) but I would love to try a skirt! Seems like a good place to start! Sending love and light your way! XO
