Leopard Pencil Dress

Make #12

Here's another little something I whipped up. I really like leopard print and wanted to make a nice fitted yet classy dress that I can pair with fun solid colored accessories. As I mentioned in my last post, my sisters were visiting for the holidays and they have been gracious enough to model my latest makes.  My sister wore this dress to a tea party we attended and I figured why not feature her rocking it.









Meet my model, Valesca, who btw added her own twist to this look.



P.S. Thanks Valesca for braving the stares on the streets while I took the pictures! You really rocked this look well! ;0)
