embroidery on denim

isabel marant leal denim embroidered dress
at metier

so many pretty things i'd like to buy, but it's hard to justify shopping when i'm busy packing away or donating my clothes.

hope you have a lovely weekend filled with sunshine rather than rain. i will be busy finishing a paper for a mini-symposium and playing with leon in the sand lot.

  1. Saw this dress at Liberty on my trip- very cute! Wish IM wasn't so pricey though. Could totally see you in this. Good luck with your move!

  4. wow, I love that combo. Thanks for the inspiration! I think when I finish embroidering this linen dress that I'm working on, and finish my friend's embroidered wedding veil, I'll have to try this combo out. It's really beautiful!

  9. Interestingly I was in a J Crew store yesterday and they had a similar design on a chambray skirt. Pretty cute.
