Peep Toe Antoinette by FlipSlip.com
"Peep Toe Antoinette" Flip Slip foldable shoe prototype....such a fun project to work on. Check out Ester Flatto's amazing invention at flipslip.com, a sole to sole foldable comfortable flat when you've just had it with your 5" heels. She challenged a group of diverse designers and I snagged the bridal category (designer #4 on indiegogo). Go vote, order, and keep a comfortable pair of shoes in your bag for those high heel emergencies!

That's just about right.
Here's a close up of my vintage rhinestone veil against
a silk satin back crepe dress.
The rhinestones are vintage french Lesage crystals each individually sewn
by hand on the netting:

If the Ultimate Knitting Book by the editors of Vogue Knitting Magazine is my bible, then the Principles of Knitting can only be described as my path to enlightenment.
