Belle Boudoir…..

Well I really should be enjoying the sun’s rays (sensibly of course!, factor 50 girl am I!) but I started playing around with the camera, and came up with these……


BOUDOIR TEST


This pretty pink Boudoir wrap really is one of my all time faves, as it just looks so sweet on. So here’s what it looks like in action…….


BOUDOIR WRAP AND SHORTS7


It’s me with the camera in the mirror again, and yes, I still haven’t quite got to grips with it all, but at least you can see what my Boudoir wraps looks like on for once….

Vi vil aldri glemme…….

LOVE BALOON


In the words of Jens Stoltenberg, “We will never forget” And we never will……


As a child, I used to always ask the question of my Pops, “Why can’t we all just love one another more, instead of hating each other?” There’s never been an easy answer to that question, but it’s one that still holds true in my heart, why can’t we just? The world would be a much better and easier place to live in if we all just got on with one another, don’t you think?


My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Norway today……

Heidi Dresses–the story continues…..

LOTTA HEIDI DRESS4


This style of dress really is one of my favourites, and it was a pleasure to make for beautiful Lotta from Sweden. Love the whole composition of the photo, with all those wonderful Ralph Lauren accessories, this is a girl after my own heart! Winking smile


LOTTA HEIDI DRESS 1


This vibrant red fabric was a ‘one-off’ and I found it in a sweet little shop in Norway last year, along with the matching cream fabric, and have been saving it for something wonderful, and here it is! Smile


LOTTA HEIDI DRESS 2


It’s a lovely embroidered broadcloth material, which is slightly different from the usual broderie anglais which I often use…..


LOTTA HEIDI DRESS3


Finished with pretty cream cotton lace and my usual bow embellishments, pretty indeed!


Doesn’t she look lovely wearing it in the wonderful Swedish sunshine, wish we had some here!



Thanks for dropping by!

Crocheted lovelies....

M712-120-153-8506-front-173-104


Hello lovelies!


When I see pretty crocheted skirts from the new A/W Odd Molly collection, well I’m rather glad I kept my pretty Karen Millen originals from way back when (read 2003/4)


KM SKIRTS1


Especially when mine are fully lined – as they always should be! Winking smile


KM SKIRTS2


Very pretty crocheted detailing in these and not too long either -think I’ll start wearing them again then!


This is the reason why you should never throw away anything you think you may wear again in the futureWinking smile



Keep a look out for more ‘Vive Maria legwarmers, coming real soon! Smile





Stor klem!

Min ‘Lille’ Boudoir……

LILLE BOUDOIR1


Hmm, think I may well have confused some folk when I called this photo ‘Lille Boudoir’ on my Facebook page recently, as I don’t want to confuse anyone into thinking it was little girls item of clothing, as I have my other blog and line, called Thumbelina von Bumblechops for that, but no, what I intended to say was that this was a smaller version of my Boudoir wrap top, given a revamp……


LILLE BOUDOIR 3


I made a version of the ‘short’ Boudoir wrap a while back, for a regular customer’s daughter, with matching shorts, which was similar to this, but let’s say that the girl in question is only 18 with legs to die for, and you’ll know that the shorts were more of what I call my ‘Kylie’ style – and let’s face it, if you’ve got it (and you’re young and beautiful!) why not flaunt it indeed!


LILLE BOUDOIR1


But in revisiting the model, I wanted to make the shorts a little more ‘wearable’ for other ladies, and so I made this pair a little wider in the leg, so they look more like a skirt – that is, until you walk in them! They’re meant to sit slouchy on the hip, which is always more flattering than higher up – in my opinion anyway, but they do look pretty on! All the lace on this model was hand dyed by myself, and is a wonderful shade of light pink....


LILLE BOUDOIR2


This is model for sale at a special price of £75.00 for the set. The regular price retails at £90.00, excl. of P&P.


The size is a 1/2, which equates to a UK 1o/12.

These usually retail at anywhere between £25.00 and £40.00, depending upon the fabric and embellishments used, so now’s the chance to win a pair for nothing! Smile

It’s that time of year again–Vive Maria’s……

LMN PROMO4


Yes, I’ve started knitting them again – did I ever stop this year, well I think there was a month when I didn’t make a pair, so that shows just how busy I’ve been! Winking smile


LMN PROMO5


As you can see, a lot of work goes into making a pair of these mamma’s so if you’re thinking of having a pair to start the Autumn season with, then I truly suggest you place an order as soon as possible, as I’m starting to get busy with them again. Leave it any later, and you may well not get a pair until Christmas – or after!


LMN PROMO6


Another sweet new edging for the A/w 12 season……


Plain colours cost £70.00 and mixed colours are £75.00, excl of P&P.


Please contact me at the usual address of………….


littlemissnorway@btinternet.com

LMN PROMO 2


If ever there were a pair to advertise Little Miss Norway, I guess it would have to be these! 


Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, personally I just wish it would stop raining! Sad smileBut have fun, whatever you do! Smile

Cappuchoo, bless you, and a brave decision perhaps……..

CAPUCHOO HEIDI AD


On the theme of the iconic ‘Heidi’ dress, here’s my latest little creation……


CAPUCHOO HEIDI FRONT 2


I’m calling this my Cappuchoo Heidi, as the colour reminds me of a lovely cappuccino, a symphony of wonderful hues of coffee coloured embroidered cottons, which I purchased over a year ago, to make this divine little creation for myself!


CAPUCHOO HEIDI FRONT 1


The colour of this dress is just divine, finished with wonderful lace and pale pink broderie anglais, which was the very last little piece of this fabric, as I just can’t get hold of it any more.......


CAPUCHOO HEIDI BACK


I can’t believe just how pretty this one is on, and it fits me perfectly too……


CAPUCHOO HEIDI SIDE AD


So I may (not fully decided yet! Winking smile) to be persuaded to part with my very first version of this dress which I made for myself, but have yet to wear, as I have always kept it as my sample and point of reference for making them for everyone else, and here it is……


HEIDI1


It's a large size 1/small size 2 Odd Molly equivalent. It is too big on me but it's just so pretty too!


Like I say, I’ve not fully made my mind up yet, but if anyone is interested…..


HEIDI DRESS SLEEVE1

Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend!
