5 Things I’ve Learned About Style Since I Started Making Clothes
Sexy isn’t just sheer, low cut, or a mini skirt.

The Audacious Dress

Any style can be worn by any body type. What matters is the tailoring.

Floreal Top and Skirt Set

Neutrals will always be the most popular picks. Pops or color are great. But I’ve found that the “most shopped” pieces are almost always neutral colors like black, navy, ivory, etc.

Unflinting Blazer Dress

The saying, “Beauty is pain” is a lie. Wearing something that is comfortable is essential.

Don’t Plaid Me Dress

How the inside looks can be just as important as the outside. Who wants to wear something that looks like it’s going to fall apart?

I’ve learned so much since started the Fashion Not Fear handmade collection. And I’m still learning something new everyday. Would you agree with what I’ve learned or no? Let me know in the comments…

A Look At The Fabric Used In The Next Fashion Not Fear Drop
As you know, new pieces are steadily being made for the Fashion Not Fear Collection. And when I say steadily I mean that there are about 2-3 new drops each month. Limited drops (which is why keeping you informed on the new things coming is essential.)

A new piece is currently in the beginning phase. I love the color and lace so much that I had to give you a peek into the latest textile being used.

It’s mint green, lace and will be fantastic! Can’t wait to show the final piece.

Any thoughts on what will be made?? Let me know in the comments…

A Mini Tour Of Where The Fashion Not Fear Collection Is Made
Happy Monday! I hope this weekend was everything you wanted for a reset. It’s much needed in order to head back to work feeling like you’re ready to go!

For me, the weekend went as per usual. Sewing, styling, writing, posting, shipping, packing….these are most of the activities that I partake in during the weekend. There are no off days when you run a business. That’s for sure. The hustle is fun for me. BUT, I always, always, always find a way to make time for those that I love.

As you might already know by now, my dress line, Fashion Not Fear, releases a new piece every couple of weeks. Sometimes more frequent than that. Since it’s a one person army making handmade pieces, you have to give a some time. Sketching a look, finding and/or creating a pattern, and sourcing the perfect fabric. These are just a few of the steps taken before the first cut is even made.

Here is a sneak peek of my workspace are where the magic happens. 😬

There you have it. The pieces that you order from the collection are all made right here! Thoughts on my work space? Let me know in the comments…

The Votes Are In; Here Is The Sleeve This Top Will Have
A few days ago, FNF readers were asked to help me decide which sleeves to make on the next top to be released in the Fashion Not Fear collection.

Thanks to all that voted. The votes have tallied and the winner is…the ruffle sleeve!!! Here is a sketch of the Dashing Blouse blouse.

The blouse will be available today. Check out IG @bluelabelsboutique to see when it officially drops. Don’t miss it!

Let me know your your “sleeve thoughts” in the comments.
