I Love Rockabilly

I was at the Home Depot Store today and I admired the store clerk's bright orange hair.  It was florescent orange, and she had thick black mascara, applied like Marilyn Monroe. This isn't a photo of her, but this gives you an idea.  I just love this style!

My Crossbody Rockabilly Purse

 
Look at this link of an older woman, by the way,  I think she looks fabulous with her tattoos and dyed hair!

I wouldn't get permanent tattoos myself, but it would be fun to get temporary ones put on.

Doesn't she look great?

I love the retro styles now too, especially the 40's.  Here's some of my favorite rockabilly items on Etsy:

The below circle skirt has a Mexican flavor.

This hair bandana reminds me of what Lucy would wear on "I Love Lucy" Show.  Notice the model's tats.

 Cherries seems to be a big thing with Rockabilly.

 I made this pouch and realized that it had Rockabilly in it too.  Plus, red, black and white seem to be a common theme with Rockabilly.

Who knows?  It would be so cool to do a craft show at a Rockabilly show.  There's one in Las Vegas every Easter weekend:

. What do you think of the Rockabilly style?

New Line of Pouches

I've been so busy, I've had to put the orange sherbet dress on the back burner.  I am getting ready for two shows, making and filling orders, and preparing two new pouch lines for my Gypsy Girl Fashions Etsy Shop.

These are some photos of one of the new line of pouches.  I really enjoy making these pouches, I'm using a lot of vintage fabrics (isn't the tomato package cute?) and trims.  They are very creative and no two are alike.

 

The middle pocket is designed to hold business cards or your ID.  I revised the pattern several times and finally got the pocket to the right size so cards fit real snug in it.  I love the red fabric holding the key ring to the right, it matches the lining.

Here's the inside of one of the pouches, I thought the western theme was cute.  I love red, white and black together.

Here's a group of the pouches together.

I'll post when they come available to my shop.  I need to do some serious sewing tonight!

Has it been hot enough for you lately?  It was 106 degrees today in Las Vegas!
