My Kid's a Fish, I love Tacos + That's a big Pizza!

Hi Dolls! I know I didn't post today and I'm sorry but honestly I have been pretty busy with the kids homeschooling and my boss is out of the country which means I work during his days which unfortunately are my nights, middle of the night to be exact, when he starts his day at 9am it is midnight here LOL but that's ok, I'll adjust after a few days. 

Today is a day of random posts so I am going to first show you this video of my son from a few weeks ago, he just learned how to swim and now we cant get him out of the water and he is fearless!!! we are using the Samsung HMX-W300 HD Underwater Camera and it is awesome!

Ok, now that you have seen how nuts my baby boy is let me show you what we had for dinner last week which was so yummy and easy....Cilantro Lime Tilapia Tacos...Yep!

Here is the recipe I promise you they are sooo good!

Now today however we were less healthy and instead went to pick up a pizza cuz I was not cooking tonight, I was dying of laughter when we tried getting into my mini cooper with this pizza, it is GINORMOUS! I had to put my seat all the way back and lean, lol!

Super Bad DIY Pants + Pattern Review Burda 7195

Hello Darlings! It is Wednesday and we are half way through this week already. I mentioned a few posts ago that I had time to sew for myself, which btw doesn't happen that often anymore, and I made these fabulous pants below. I promise that you will see these in every color!! because I am in love!

I love wide leg pants and I love high waist pants and I love pants that flow with you and this pattern has all that! The pattern is Burda 7195

The Look + Pattern Review

Pattern Description: Extra-full pants with elastic casing in the waist. The charm of it is the slanting pleat piece that tilts down from the waist.  

Pattern Sizing: I cut size 6

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope? Yes

Were the instructions easy to follow? The instructions for these pants are actually pretty easy to follow and Burda always has pretty god illustrations for those who may need them.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love EVERYTHING, especially the folded down waist with the pleats and the high waist and wide legs.

Fabric Used: Rayon Challis

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None! I didn't have to make a single change to the pattern and it fit as a size 6 right out of the envelope which never happens, and because it is such a lose fitting pant you just need to make sure the waist measurement is correct.

Would you sew it again? I already ordered fabric to make them in 3 other colors, LOL

Would you recommend it to others? Yes, Yes & Yes the pattern itself is not hard at all but I can see the waist and fold/pleat portion confusing for some but it's not that hard...really.

High Low Fabulosity!

Hi Darlings! I hope you had a great long weekend. I had time to sew, sleep and hang with the fan so I am feeling fantastic. Okay so...I was gifted a fabulous high low top from Liv Boutique, the little shop I visited in San Fran where I picked up these pants and this dress you guys liked so much. When I got the top in the mail it was so  excited I couldn't wait to wear it. The front of the top is a super soft t-shirt knit and the back is a flowy chiffon fabric.
