Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds Costume Tutorial

If you need a quick last minute costume this is the perfect one to make! I like funny and old vintage Halloween costumes.  Last year, this sassy seven-year-old was Audrey Hepburn and this year....well,  she hasn't yet decided on what her glorious costume will be.   So, I got to take some liberties and made up a costume that I liked.  (And we shall see what she actually chooses for the big day ;)  I love this costume because it is a total throwback to the costumes of my childhood. ...

Lookbook: The Audrey Pants

One of the projects I did for Project Run and Play last year was a pair of "Audrey Hepburn" pants to go with this outfit.  It was the most-worn pair of pants in Hannie's drawer, so the one thing I knew that had to be in the collection were another pair. These are made out of stretch denim (the same as the pencil skirt) that I got at FIDM in LA.  They are basically a straight-legged pant with a waistband and side seam zipper.  Last year's version I traced from a pair of leggings.  This year ...
