I made this butter soft top to try out new sleeve variations inspired by Marc Jacobs looks this fall. on the front I made an embroidery with style icon, tomboy and TV presenter Alexa Chung. my friend Kadi came by and snapped it right away. so you can meet Alexa and Kadi walking in Geneva now, which is Kadi´s hometown. my neighbours cat, who you can see on the picture above, walks still here in backyards. Kadi has a cat too, named Nilsson, who looks pretty much the same and has a very fancy life. summers in Estonia, winters in Geneva and vacations in Cannes...i´m not kidding at all :)

  2. I love this top! It seems from the XVIII century but turned into a very present-day version.
