MY ALICIA KEYS FROCK

Alicia Keys Rocks!!! The concert was absolutely sensational. She is just such a beautiful and talented performer, and quite honestly, any one who can wear high waisted white jeans and still look fabulous gets a big tick in my book! And what a bonus...I didn't realise that Jordin Sparks would be performing as well, so that was a wonderful surprise. I think she's a real sweetie!

Well my hand recovered enough for me to make my dress for the concert. I made up View 'C' of New Look pattern 6805 in a black and white gingham. It came together so easily, I may have to make a couple of these for the summer months ahead. The only thing I had to alter was the length (I added about 5cm). I'm really diggin' the neckline of this dress - it has a kind of 50's feel about it.

Here's the finished product....

ALICIA KEYS

Cause I am a Superwoman

Yes I am

Yes she is

Still when I'm a mess

I still put on a vest

With an 'S' on my chest

Oh yes

I'm a Superwoman

Alicia Keys - Superwoman lyrics

I am soooo excited to be going to her concert! I'm thinking that I will have to whip up an outfit for this event..hmmmm I've never been a VIP before, so I think that this calls for something nice. I cut my hand on some broken glass the other day, so it will come down to whether I can handle scissors etc. I will post some pics if I can!

DH and I are staying the night close by so that we can make a night of it. It's my early Christmas present from him. Bec (my DD) is a bit miffed that I'm going without her, I'll make it up to her ...somehow...

Have a lovely day.
