custom made clothes: part II

Let me preface this by saying that this post seems really vain since these are all pictures of me, but many of you have asked to see more of my custom made clothes (and I don't think they look like much when they're on the hanger.)  So here is a peek at my Dubai wardrobe...

-high waisted trousers with bow belt-

-high waisted skirt with gold buckles and back zipper-

-gold sequin pencil skirt-

-peter pan linen dress-

-jersey dress with ruffle collar-

-high waisted skinny trousers & peter pan blouse with gold buttons- 

-geometric sequin skirt-

  16. Heather LeeFebruary 5, 2011 at 6:34 PM

    Thanks for sharing. LOVE the high-waisted skinny pants on you. Those and the first sequin skirt are my favorite. And I also loved the Peter Pan Color dress...and:)
    My brother and his family lived in China for a few years and my sister-in-law did the same thing, had all of her clothes custom made. She said she lived like a Queen out there. Makes me want to work abroad.
    And I would love to see your "beat the heat" outfits. I live in 100% humidity in the summer and I never know what to wear.
