So, after familiarizing ourselves with the Sunki pattern on EA’s minor “flip,” we delved into making CL’s a slightly more drastic one. Now, for a little ‘history': Approximately a month ago, we made EA an “experiment” smock for her birthday – circumventing the ‘no clothes’ statement she made in regards to gift requests. {In all […]
