Ruffles


I just adore ruffles and particularly in the extreme amount, but I think there was a bit of a ruffle overload a while back and I went off them a little, this picutre has certainly rekindled my love of the girly frou frou-ness of ruffles. Oh how I would love a coat? like this to dress up in for Winter, if only I had the time to make one, but tiered ruffles take soooo much time to cut and sew.

  1. This is one amazing coat - thank you for sharing this photo! I'm love ruffles, but am always too scared to wear them in case I look like a cream puff! Happy Friday :)
