Ohai, this week almost killed me because of too much coughing and wheezing. But it's the weekend now and I'm still alive and I got to sleep in, so let's talk about more fun things, shall we?
You know I'll always have a special spot in my heart for handmade pieces. As I said on a previous post, they "have an inherent charm that cannot be replicated by mass-produced and factory-made products." My heart gives a little squeal of delight every time I see a crafted piece, no kidding, and I am a proud supporter of shops that sell everything handmade. That being said, I need to find time to finally do at least one DIY project in my To Do board in Pinterest.
About a month ago, Lorraine of Palette Pursuit sent me a lovely email telling me about how she decided to take a leap of faith to pursue what she really wants to do: craft! It resonates with me because I did the same almost a year ago and I never looked back.
She sent me these lovely pieces to wear:
... and I had a grand time pairing them with some of my summer-y outfits!
 |
| Amelia in marionette with my floral dress for the launch of Pure 'N Fresh Colognes |
 |
| Amelia in fashionista with my polka dot sweetheart tube dress for the press launch of Make Up Factory I LOVE that cute tassel on the back. |
 |
| Pink yarn-wrapped sailor knot rope bracelet with my rose quartz bracelet |
Aside from being unique and one-of-a-kind, I love them because each of them is handmade with love and TLC. I adore the color combinations and, depending on what I wear them with, they either complement or give interesting contrast to my outfits.
The name itself is very promising so I'm excited to see what else Palette Pursuit has in store for us. Visit the shop now as Lorraine is offering 15% off all purchases until June 16!
Here comes the fun part, a giveaway!
