Let’s be honest, if you have an apron belly you know this one.

That denim pocket that just won’t sit flat - it gaps, it flaps, it literally tries to escape.

I didn’t even mark mine, I just eyed where it was gaping while I had them on and sewed that little section closed.

Not the whole pocket, I’m not trying to lose storage.

Realistically it took me 15 mins, stitches are a bit wonky but who is checking?

Now it sits flat, no more pocket tent, and I can still actually USE the pocket. Phone, lip gloss, all the snacks still fit.

If this was helpful let me know in the comments, share it with someone whose pockets also try to run away, and repost it so you don’t lose it.

I have My Top Denim Picks collection on my storefront Plug Central | Social Commerce | Meta Partner as these that I’m wearing are from last season.

I told my budget we’re just window shopping... and then Aurora Crafted Style happened. Pt. 1 😂

What makes them so special?

Each piece is hand-beaded by 4 amazing women, meaning your purchase feeds 4 families.

Handmade with love, bold colour, and compliments guaranteed.

This is Part 1 of my jewellery series — more styling coming soon!

Link to my Plug Central | Social Commerce | Meta Partner storefront is in my stories! ✨

She’s FINALLY here and she’s everything I asked for and MORE 💕
Remember when Monique from Mona-Me let me build my OWN dress and I got a little carried away?

Well, this is what happens when you ask for feminine but SEXY, statement collar, statement sleeves, maxi length, snatched waist, in a pink & white stripe linen blend that actually BREATHES.

Made to MY measurements. Not a size chart. MY body.
I said I wanted to feel beautiful AND hot. She understood the assignment.

Part 1 is linked below if you missed it, Part 2 is the dress. Would you wear her? 👇

TV DAY 2/3: THE ON-AIR LOOK - this is THE ONE you’ll see on TV 🤍

If you saw Part 1 last week (Maud Cobalt Grid to GET to the studio), this is what I actually wore ON national TV.

Look 2: The Juliette Dress in White Linen - Kloth and Kin

The deets you’re going to DM me for anyway:

✨ 100% linen - breathable under those HOT studio lights, thank goodness
✨ Oversized brand - I’m wearing a Medium and I can sit, breathe, and not worry about flashing the nation
✨ I did the bend test, the sit test, and the “can you see my Spanx on HD” test. We passed.
✨ White on camera is BRAVE but the cut of the Juliette just makes you look expensive and put-together even when you’re sweating internally.

She’s giving talk show host, she’s giving “I have my life together” even though I’m held together by double-sided tape and 3 deep breaths.

Okay - Part 1 was Anxious But Cute, this one is Polished and Praying.
Part 3 - the denim chambray Maud I changed into the SECOND I left - drops soon!
That’s the Fed and Free look.

Be honest - was white linen on TV brave or stupid?

And are you Team 1 or Team 2 so far?

Comment Juliette below and I’ll DM you the plug central 🔌 link

Monique Mona-Me let me build my OWN dress and I got a little carried away... 💕

Her “Build Your Own Dress” offer means you pick EVERYTHING - collar, sleeves, waist, length, fabric - then she takes your actual measurements.

My vision? Feminine but sexy, statement collar, statement sleeve, perfect waist, and this pink & white stripe fabric that I am OBSESSED with.

She’s drawing up the technical sketch.

Part 2 is the final dress and I have a feeling it’s going to be THE one.

What would YOU design if you could build any dress?
