Fashion Fantasies

The Real Place For Your Fashion Dreams To Come True

Saris were never so hot!

It’s traditional and it’s trendy, the stuff of designer ware and vintage drama, for humble domestics and also alpha women in the corridors of power and showbiz.

It’s the drape for all seasons and this summer – the traditional Indian sari is going retro. Traditional Benarasi, jacquard, kota, cotton and jamdaani are high on the sari roster.

Antique textile collector Sobha Deepak Singh, the director of the Shriram Bharatiya Kala Kendra says of the sari movement, “It used to be a very niche segment, but with the sari being recognised as formal wear globally, more women are choosing it over Western-style evening dresses.”

In vogue are antique saris – more than 100 years old – and recreated period saris. Read more…

Flamingo – Free Pattern!

Okay, I’ve got a cute one for you today. I’ve been putting out some sneak peeks on Twitter and Facebook yesterday (please join me on both – see the top of the blog sidebar for links). The response was huge! I didn’t know everyone needed a Flamingo but now I do. What a fun and fast knit. The Hi-Bounce Pinky Ball inside the body makes for a great shape and a great bounce. My daughter could not stop with the bouncing flamingo yesterday. You c

Cheryl Cole : Steal her style

Any regular reader of Shudoo News knows that we’re big fans of one Miss Cheryl Cole. And so, in homage to the glamorous Brit, we’ve compiled the ultimate style steal so that we too can look like the shining Northern star.

On the red carpet she oozes glamour and sophistication, and her everyday style is no different.

At 5ft 3”, Cheryl lives in heels and is a big Christian Louboutin lover regularly stepping out in a pair of these red-soled heels. While

Madonna is known for being a singing legend, a mother-of-four and a fashion icon?… Well, perhaps not the latter if these recent photos of her are anything to go by.

We caught the 52-year-old working a rather strange rolled up trouser leg with knee-high checked golf socks and a pair of trainers.

The Material Girl was on the set of her new film, W.E, resembling a would-be gangster rather than a professional film director.

Her whole outfit was a little mismatched consisting of jogging bottoms, a leather jacket, scarf and straw hat.

We can only think Madonna is so focused on making the film a success that her fashion sense has taken a back seat.

So, please don’t start rolling your trouser legs up, we’re not convinced this look will be catching on anytime soon!

Hi-Bounce Inspiration

The second sleeve is almost done! I should have the starting information for the top down raglan knitalong together by the end of the week. That means yarn amounts and other basic information you’ll need to work along. Plus you’ll want to swatch before starting to make sure you are getting the gauge for the project.

I also have some new toy ideas I’m working on. The materials above are for two new toys. My daughter and I were out at an adorable local toy shop last week and we saw the Hi-Bounce Pinky balls. She quickly informed me that these balls are the favorites of all the kids in her gym class. Appar
