Beach crochet mini skirt

You know about my passion for crochet last year. But I did only small creations - flowers and beads. Bigger thing I made was scarf. But this spring I pluck courage and made some big creations. 
One of these is this wonderful lace crochet mini skirt:

  

I will wear it as a beach skirt in the summer, but now I wear this skirt with leggins.  It's a really cute skirt! You can order it in my Etsy shop.

The pattern to make it is very simple and if you are still not professional with crochet, you will be able to make it. I found this pattern in Internet here: http://www.liveinternet.ru/users/3671849/post123690069/.
Tie around your hips + 1-2 cm/0.4-0.8" - this will be the width of the skirt. Then steer the scheme:

The length can be different - very short like mine or a little longer. So, If I was able to make - be sure that you is able too!
You can make also a linning and wear this crochet skirt as a normal skirt.

Fabric and crochet necklaces

Gone those days when fashion was dictated by some strict rules, obedience to which meant a good taste. Today absolutely everything is fashionable!  But no more restrictions, all the periods of the history of fashion are mixed now. You can wear an elegant dress with romantic Victorian elements of the late XIX century, or the futuristic suit, pants from the '70s or the feminine floral dress of 50th or mix all this together...
The same goes for accessories and jewelry. Any material, size, style – you can find here glass and wood, precious stones and various metals,  textiles and leather, knitting and beadwork. The combination of different materials and techniques in jewelry makes them unique, for example these necklaces made from  crochet and fabric beads:



The combination of these different textures and matherials makes these necklaces unique and special. Everyone who will see them, always want to touch them. And it is not surprising, because they look so original!


Tutorial for these wonderful necklaces is here.

Spring fashion - big and unique rings

One of things that fashion offers for this spring is statement and unique jewelry, which by themselves are an independent element of the image. We all are yearned for bright colors, floral ornaments and freedom in the choice of clothes, and the spring just gives us an opportunity to show all the emotions and the positive charge.



 First of all - rings. Ring – it’s a kind of magic, it transforms a woman making more feminine, drawing attention to the delicate and graceful fingers. Spring, which is associated with freshness, levity and simplicity dictates the choice of materials - this is definitely can’t be heavy stones or metals, but leather - a natural material, very textured, perfectly combined with not too hot weather.


  The colors are ideal for this season - also the most natural: sky blue, grass green, tangerine orange, the color of sunflowers, rich color of red wine, soft purple, cream ...



You can wear the big ring without other jewelry - it is self-sufficient. However, as his owner!
