Clever Nettle Style Files!
November 13th, 2009
Here is the first official edition of the Clever Nettle STYLE FILES (corny? yes, but the pictures make up for it!), posts starring ladies wearing items from my shop. I received an email this morning from Stella letting me know that she had posted some photos of herself in a dress from my shop! This dress is extra special, not only because of the amazing rhinestone bow and stripey fabric, but because I spent hours mending it, sewing up rips and fixing little things so that it could be worn again, because a dress that awesome deserves a long life! What a great party dress, and Stella looks SO FANTASTIC in it!! She said that it reminded her of a vintage Playboy Bunny Girl, cause of the bow-tie! She made little lace ears to go with it, totally the perfect touch. Here’s Stella’s original post, in French! Right, I forgot to mention that she lives in Paris!
Next, one of my favorite new blogger friends, Erin, aka calivintage! She took home a really cute 60’s Jonathan Logan dress from my shop, I think there must be a rule that all Jonathan Logan dresses are awesome. Don’t you agree? Erin styled her dress in a totally genius way, with the most perfect scallop trim jacket I have ever seen. I am a huge fan of scallop edges, and I would be pretty stoked to find a blazer like that. She made the dress look really modern and cool, the perfect blend of sweetness and overall rad-ness. Here’s her original post!
I’ll have to see if I can dig up any more photos like these, and if you have some, please send them over or point me in the direction of your blog/flickr!
This concludes the first installment of STYLE FIIIIIIILEZ.

Yay, I think this will be a segment to look forward to. Style Filezz is a great idea. :} I think it’s just lovely you get to see where your pieces go and how people style them. Stella has such a whimsical flair and Erin does look very coool. :}

This is such a good idea! I love stalking your etsy shop for all the gorgeous dresses and it would be great seeing where they end up and how they are worn. So creative and inspiring! I think I’ve sent you a picture of me wearing the skirt I bought from you, but here’s the link to it again:
