A Happy Tuesday Loves!
And when i thought i had given myself a break on buying anything this month, i accidentally came across this beautiful red number and guys when i tell you my heart stopped for a second!!! It took me a minute to come back to my senses. This dress was a gift to myself for passing my national oral exams in social work last Tuesday. That`s the reason i wasn`t able to get out a post for you guys last week. Talking of major priorities which had to be settled! I`m feeling so free right now. To a point that i feel like something is missing in my life. How ironic! Being a student for almost five years had me in a kind of state that i was constantly doing research and reading which honestly became part of my life. Now that`s over and i feel empty. On one hand i feel like the timing is more than perfect because i have enough time for my family, my blog and sewing projects. On the other hand i feel like i will miss that student life since it pushed me over the limit to work beyond what i could even imagine i was capable of. I`m more confident and willing to try new stuff. But i`m ready for a new chapter in my life. And i`m glad it has started with an amazing team at work.
Enough of that! How have you guys been? I don`t know about you but jeez, this month has been the longest! By the way, thank you all so much for the feedback i got on my My First Sewing Project. I felt so encouraged and inspired to do more projects. And more projects are lined up for you this year. This is a big challenge for me and i can`t wait to see what i will create by the end of this year. Can`t believe that we will be celebrating Christmas in four months!!! Time is waiting for no man and exactly that`s the reason why i focus on doing the most important things each day. One at a Time….. Living in the moment…
I love how simple this piece is and not to mention it`s an off shoulder dress?? The material is really stretchy. Amazing for those curves :). I also love the fact that it has a midi length to it which gives it a good balance of class and eleganance. Styling it wasn`t a hustle since the the vibrant color and not to mention the off – shoulder detail on it makes it stand out the most. I couldn`t wait to share this post with you. Hope you enjoy it as much as i did creating it for you…
Catch yàll in my next post 🙂
Have a blessed week loves!
Milly 🙂

Hello Milly,
You look so good in that dress. It accentuates your beautiful figure. The look just made me sing Lady In Red by Chris de Burgh

Haha.. Thanks Sindy!.
Wishing you a lovely week
I think sewing replaced your studies since you are done, so you hands will still be full. This is a gift that anyone would accept with pen arms. I can’t judge you for buying it because I would have probably done the same. The dress was made for you, the color, the off shoulder element and the fact that it stretches with your curves, you are such a vision Milly!!

I’m sitting here smiling when you say your heart stopped. I can relate to that feeling. What a nice way to gift yourself after 5 years of studying. You look amazing as usual and it’s such a perfect timing as you will have more time to spend With Robin now that he is in school and your sewing project for sure. The lady in red.
Enjoy your week Hun
