My name is Lucy, I'm a Dutchwoman here to offer an alternative approach to beauty.
On this channel I do mostly hair tutorials where I show you how to braid, pin and style your own hair. I recreate hairstyles from movies, tv shows or history and I regularly come up with my own, which I love to share with you!
I really enjoy diving into history to find out how women went about their beauty and dressing rituals in days past. Vintage and history-themed videos are my little passion project.
You'll find a bit of lifestyle content here as well, ranging from cozy chats over a cup of tea (my beloved Tea Time videos) to personal vlogs and home & interior videos.
Enjoy browsing!
Love,

Your dress looks like it's made by a professional. I love seeing you progress in each of your sewing videos.
True true
Consider it a beautiful wearable mockup? Even if you don’t get a lot of wear out of it because of the scratchy fabric, you now have a wonderful dress pattern that you can remake any time you find nice fabric!
A little tip: I find that if I spray antistatic or Febreeze (a spray to remove odors from fabric) on my polyester skirt it slides better and doesn't make the crinkle sound as much.
Love your content ❤️
Great tip! Thank you
When I was little I refused any dress that didnt twirl when I spun around.
I'm an adult and this is also my criteria.
@@patronusstag yeah, I still prefer it myself lol
little you had her priorities straight
That or pockets. If it doesn't twirl but has pockets, I'll allow it.
Yeah.... not much has changed in my life 😂
Obsessed with this dress! The pattern is just gorgeous. I’m slowly getting closer to finally attempting to sew something for myself 🤣
Do it!! I started sewing skirts last year and it’s so satisfying once you’ve accomplished it! I made a dress for the first time this year and now I want to do soooo much more ☺️
Shaela Duncan That’s amazing!! Thank you for the inspiration ❤️

Loepsie i admire you and your style so much, you are such a nice person and omg your sewing skills and slow-living is so nice!! I would love a cosy autumn calming vlog :)
I like the shape and the fabric print. I too wish it was real wool. I could never wear polyester, but I think your dress is perfect just as it is and doesn't need collar tacking etc. It looks beautiful.
You, Rachel Maksy, and Bernadette Banner constantly inspiring me to sew 😍😍 love it
That skirt you‘re wearing with the white blouse is in-cre-dib-ly beautiful! I still envy you so much for it! ❤️
Hand sewing in zippers- a woman after my own heart! I find it so much easier to hand sew when accuracy is needed.
Also, though your personalities are very different, and you’re more soothing and calming than her chaotic good energy, I find that your attitude to sewing (and lack of mock-ups) and wanting to try things out and just go for it, is very similar to that of Rachel Maksy. I genuinely respect both of you for that.
I’m much more timid- the cutting anxiety is real! And I will do mock-ups over and over again until everything is perfect, then transfer that perfect mock-up to pattern paper, before I cut into my fashion fabric. The methodical way does work for me, but it takes forever! Especially as I’m really slow to begin with (I either hand stitch most things, or I can only spend an hour at most at the machine and cutting table per day, due to disability). So it means instead of making a garment in a few days, it can take me months. I wish I was a bit more adventurous with my fashion fabric, but I think that is also a side effect of being a poor, and not being able to buy new fabric if I make a mistake, and feeling awful about wasting money if I have.
But I watch your videos (and Rachel’s videos) and I wish that I had more of that “just give it a go” attitude. Especially as it usually turns out very well for you both.
I hate doing zippers, I can never get them looking good. I never thought you could hand sew them in. I'm going to give that a try with a new 50's dress I've been planning to sew for the wife.
I buy second hand sheets etc and use them for my sewing - no one would know that they cost me $5
@@rapi6099 I’m a huge fan of secondhand bedsheets! I made a summer banyan using a couple of cotton bedsheets that belonged to my great grandmother (they were too small to fit on a modern single bed), and I’m just about to make an 18th century petticoat out of a brown bedsheet I got for $3 at my local op shop.
They’re definitely the cheapest way to get decent yardage, and there’s plenty of 100% cotton bedsheets about (I refuse to use polyester- I live in a hot and humid climate and wrapping myself in plastic is not a great idea!)
Really reassuring to see I’m not the only one who thinks putting in the zipper by hand is just easier😄 Love the dress, looks super cute❤️
That overshirt at the start looks amazing.
Very impressed with the sleeves! I love the gathers at the shoulder. It does so much for the “feel” of the dress.
Ikr; such a complete presentation! Love love loveit
Watching your videos brings back my love of sewing which I truly miss. Watching your projects encourages me to pick it up again even after many years.
Super cute! I'm well impressed with the pattern matching on the front!
The collar might have benefitted from interfacing and a facing which is understitched they would help it have structure and sit flat properly 🙂
Heaps better than my first long sleeve dress! ❤️
This really is THE perfect autumn dress! ❤️ The only thing I would've changed would be using a white fabric for the collar, since the dress already has white stripes I think that would look super cute as well 😊 Thank you for the inspiration!
I'm having such a rough time and seeing you post a video makes my day better❤ Oh, how I wish I can be as talented as you.❤❤❤
A quiet morning at work means some beautifully inspiring content from you, dear Loepsie! Thank you 😊🖤⭐️
LOVE, that your making your own wedding dress!!! Such a brilliant idea!!💗👰
I had a dress like that when I was little and it was made by my grandma haha I loved it! And now looking at your beautiful job I kinda want to make one myself (but without the sleeves). I am very comfortable with sewing bags/bagpacks and booksleeves but I am scared of making clothes. And also I wish my sewing was so calming hahah I am a sewing chaos 😆
Turned out great!!! You can always make it in a wool fabric later :) You have come so far with your sewing, you seem more confident with it now. Great Job.
The dress turned out perfecly! I´m so jealous of people who look good in brown or any sort of geometrical pattern, especially in a combination of these two :D
I am one of those people 😅 but I also don’t look good in yellow or purple..and I love purple and wish I looked good in it but I guess you can’t have it all..
Oooohh polish sewing machine 💙 I am from Poland and I am a seamsteress. I’m proud of you, you’re doing great!
Lucy, you are progressing so rapidly with your sewing! I am in love with this dress. I can’t wait to see your progress on your wedding dress. Congratulations by the way!!
LOVE that dress. Everytime I go shopping I keep my eyes open for something like that but I have never found a dress as beautiful as the one you made. Now I really want to learn how to sew to make one fo rmyself. However I would make the sleves a few centimeters longer, cause I don't like to have cold wrists.
Yess
Perfect flamboyant gamine dress. Added yin elements would be nice
Your sewing videos are my favorites. They always inspire me! Keep up the good work :)
that lace sweater is so pretty!
This dress is just great.
I love this dress. Definitely going to make one. But I must know more about the dark blue dress you were wearing.
Beautiful outcome!! Basting and trying on while you sew really helped. I like your sewing videos the most. Thank you.
this is so pretty! those sleeves are great! I love watching you try new things because even though I've technically been sewing since I was little I still feel like a beginner since I'm always too afraid to try something new. it's so inspiring to see you trying things I've always been too scared to. now I want a cute swishy dress too.
U can do it i believe in your talent 😊
I love your sew with me videos!!
I like that you are so honest about the outcome.
My favorite dress style 😍😍😍😍❤️
My mother used to sew for me as a kid. I never had ready made clothes and I used to feel bad to be different. My mom passed away when I was 10. She was making something for me but never completed it. And I miss her and I want to learn how to sew because I feel like i can do it. (I know nothing about fashion) but I've always been interested in long sleeves and winter theme clothes but I live in Mumbai, india where it's always hot. But ya haha.
Love the dress looks super cute
The dress is so cute! You could probably hold the collar down with a brooch or lapel pin too
You did a great job. The dress is so fascinating. 😍😍😍
May I ask how many yards of fabric you used? Thank you. 😍
Love the fabric pattern. The dress came out beautiful👍
It is beautiful, I'm so glad the sleeves turned out! I have loved watching your sewing skills and confidence progress, while always focusing on learning and having fun with your projects. You've inspired me to start learning to sew in earnest. Your videos are always a joy!
I love the dress, it kind of reminds me of a Son de Flor dresses. You did an amazing job and it looks stunning on you!!
Yes, totally a Son de Flor vibe ! :)
your dress 👗 idea is awesome
Kis kis ko passand aaya 👍
Tack the collar down with buttons if you use small rhimestone buttons they will look like broaches. But i love the dress and i love the print
Your dresses and style are everything I am looking for in my next sewing projects! Would you consider creating a printable/readable pattern to sell? Much admiration!
I'm looking into learning how to make patterns & possibly sell them, but I'm completely new to it so there's a lot 😁 Might take a while, but I'm working on it!
@@Loepsie Great to hear, thank you for replying! ❤️ Sending love from the U.K.
The dress is beautiful! I’m thinking about learning to sew and it’s because I’d love to make my own dresses that look like this. Well done!
You look lovely and beautiful 😊. I love your style, and the way you talk is really funny and kind 💛. You’re my inspiration 🧡. And you remind me of myself in some ways x’D. Lastly, Thank You for making awesome youtube videos ❤️ 😁💖
Lightly cloudy today here... sewing through a project while listening ❤
I gasped so hard my boyfriend thought something was wrong. This is great!!! I’m obsessed!
So cute! I just got a bunch of wool plaid on sale and I need to make this dress, but sleeveless because I live in cardigans... 🧐 ... and one piece on the front bodice... yes. YES!
I didn't know you were planning to make your wedding dress! It's gonna be worth it and I wished I had made mine. There are so many patterns out there and they aren't as intimidating as one would think, especially since you have several dresses under your belt. Just be prepared for all the yardage/meters you are gonna need haha
I put RUclips on to keep me company while making festive face masks and your video was waiting for me... I really am sewing with you! 😊
Oh wow..I love your dress..Perhaps you could remake it in a fabric like the 'Phoebie Check' on the with Merchant & Mills online fabric store, its Linen and much more sustainable., and also a beautiful chocalate colours..I have some of that and I hope to make a half circle skirt.
With the collar, I would do it as a separate piece and attach it with a button on either side of the zip and the center front neck so you can wear it without or with a different color one for variety. You could practice your embroidery on different collars, like cute acorns and leaves.
That is gorgeous!!
I think a fancy pin or broach on the collar would be a good no sew cheat.

Your dress was beautiful ... !!!
This is so beautiful! I already admired it on your Instagram yesterday. Wonderful work, well done! :)
👏
It looks amazing! Amazing job, given how you made it, doing your own thing haha it still looks amazing and you cannot tell! Well done.
A note on the collar! You were actually super close! In my experience, I find instructions tell you to stitch the top collar piece to the dress wrong side of the dress to the right side of the collar. Then you press the under collar and that allows you to whip stitch the collar down neatly and also keeps the collar laying flat. No facing needed! ❤️
Pockets!!! That's what you were forgetting.
Nope, very consciously left them out 😂 I don't care for pockets in skirts, I really dislike how whatever you put in them flops around when you move so I don't use them anyway 😝
This is the first video I’ve seen from your channel and I really liked it. Your dress turned out very elegant and as inspired me to create my first dress from scratch. From what the video shows about your personality, you are very sweet ☺️ thank you for taking the time to share your process!
Yes, that is how you attach the collar, and then you use bias tape to finish it off on the inside.
You made such a cute dress ! The fabric pattern is adorable and you look beautiful in this dress ! Now that my grand-mother gave me her own sewing machine I have no choice but to try creating a vintage dress, thank you for the daily inspiration ❤️.
Ujjcxxx

Your progress in sewing is amazing! Always a pleasure to watch, thank you!
Your vintage autumn dress is so cute!! Beautiful pattern.. And I love it sooo much ❤
Next time first the sleeves in the dress and then sew the sleeves and the sides of the dress in one go. Much easier. The checkered patron goes better if you do the front fitting instead of the back. The collar indeed goes from the inside out XD and has to match with the checkered pattern at the front. If you made the dart from the middle to the breast it would have been easier to match the pattern. I admire your brave diving right into it not hindered by any knowledge of pattern making and sewing. Now you've made it in cheap fabric go for a nice wool-blend the next time. Would you like a petticoat under the skirt? Would look marvelous.
That is one beautiful dress! You should definitely make another in fabric you’ll enjoy! U have skills
obsessed with how the skirt twirls when u move ur dress form hahaha
Then she can dance along to her favorite song in it 😁
I'm in love with your vintage sewing machine ❤️
Elegant Dress love it so much from philippines😍😍😍
It looks so pretty! It looks amazingly snug for winter.
The collar may be sitting like that because there is too much curve in the pattern. If the curve is kinda straighter it pulls itself flat over the shoulder.
You should get a simple bodice pattern that fits you nicely then adjust it rather than having to draft from scratch on the form.
Just saw the photo in the thumbnail & i can already say I LOVE IT 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Beautiful make.
I think for patterned circle skirts you are supposed to do them in 2 halves so the lines stay horizontal. the dress looks great!!
Dress is gorgeous!! I also don’t like mockups haha, this nervous excitement to see how everything turns out on the piece itself is irreplaceable😂 plus i believe there are no mistakes that couldn’t be fixed as long as you do them symmetrical haha. I am just very bad seamstress, nobody should listen to me😂
I love these types of dresses, and I started wearing them more and more.
I encourage you to create more videos like this because are magnificient, and we need more content like yours
I "sew" want to try this kind of project myself!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Beautiful!
Wow looks so well done and professional sewn
It looks so good! I wish I could draft patterns. You're so talented!
pretty dress! there is a very specific way to construct a collar and sew it so that it lays flat. It's not hard and the results will be so much better.
PLEASE KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK
Wow.. I love that dress.. so inspiring!!! Thank you so much 😃
Love love love all the dresses you make! I'm working towards feeling more comfortable with sewing so I can finally replicate them one day, but all of them in black, as it's the only colour I wear lol. Thank you for the inspiration ♥
Beautiful!
I absolutely love this style And that pattern is gorgeous! You are such an inspiration!
The dress is absolutely gorgeous! I love the plaid pattern and just the entire design of the dress with the circle skirt, buttons, and peter-pan collar. I need a winter dress in my wardrobe and this has inspired me! Just one question: How many meters of fabric did you use?
Really want to sew this. Love the style and the color. Thank you for inspiration.
I love your outfit 💖💖💖💖
Watching your RUclips channel gives me the same vibe as watching About time with Rachel McAdams, idk why, but it's equally relaxing
Great! I´m so impressed! It´s so beautiful!
I LOVE this dress! this pattern is amazing, love how it turned out! The idea of sewing the zipper by hand will save me many future frustrations lol it kinda bothers me a lot, especially with invisible zippers. Love your channel!
Very nice job. Looks fabulous. I also loooove checkered fabric😍. Maybe a tip for the collar:. The fabric is a bit heavy. If you use a thinner fabric for the under-collar, it will lay more flat. 😁🙋🏻♀️
These are my Favorite videos of yours! I started sewing in august and just finished my fifth garment, a pleated dress with long sleeves!
It looks great.
I'm learning from watching you.
I didn't know that hand sewing a zipper would be easier. Thanks for the tip.
Oh yeah I cut my own bangs after watching your past video of how to do it!😊
What a lovely video
it will look pretty with an apron on top. A slightly beige linen apron.
I always wait for your stitching videos.✌
Wow you did such a good job! Beautiful!
