New pieces from the handcrafted collection, Fashion Not Fear is steadily being released on BlueLabelsBoutique.com. As a matter of fact, there is probably a new drop every two weeks or so, which means you should be checking often! 😀 If you happen to forget, no worries…you will be sure to get an update right here at FNF.
The Sanguine Dress is next up. Sanguine??… you might be thinking.
The word means being optimistic or positive, especially in an difficult situation. Optimism is an absolute requirement in being fearless. The name didn’t occur to me at when I started. It wasn’t until after looking at the finished product.
First of all, it’s deep v-neckline is hella sexy. If you look good, you feel good aka optimistic. Plus, it is also a maxi. There is something abut a long dress that always makes me feel good when I’m wearing it. Maybe it is how the material feels brushes against my legs. Or perhaps it is because my height (4′ 11″) requires me to hold it up one the sides when walking so that it doesn’t drag on the floor. So girly is that!! 💕 I can’t put my finger on it but maxi dresses are my jam!
There are a few things that need to be done before it comes out.
Seams to finish.
Thread to remove.
Almost at the finish line! For now, you can feast your eyes on a sketch of the dress.
Stay tuned this week so you can get yours when it drops. Who’s feeling the Sanguine dress?? Let me know in the comments..
Hey you! I have been working hard creating new designs to be available at Blue Labels Boutique. Plus, we will be making an announcement soon of a big event that we are involved in. One that you won’t want to miss (if you are in the area). In the meantime, here is a sketch of a two piece set that I’ve been working on. It will be released within the next few days. Take a look at our inspiration board and sketch…
Can’t wait to share the final look with you. Thoughts on the sketch?? Let me know in the comments…
Oh and here is your coupon. It’s only good until September 20th.
Creating pieces for the Fashion Not Fear Collection is hands down the one thing I enjoy more than anything else in the world. Sourcing fabrics, cutting patterns, sketching new ideas, the frustrations of getting shit caught up in a sewing machine…I love it all. I really do!
Its kind of like my baby. I nurture it every single day. Little by little, it is growing into something that I become more and more proud of every day. Check out these behind the scene shots to get a sneak peek into part of my process.

Happy Monday!! I hope that the weekend was everything you wanted it to be and more. If you have been following us on IG; then you might have noticed that I often share sketches of pieces that I am creating. I want people to see what the idea was behind the piece and then to see how it actually turns out.
