However, I digress, I will join on this (when I choose what to remix) but I needed to show you my new dress.
This is my 'Let's Hear It for the Boys' dress. I was given this fabric from an old-fashioned stash and originally I thought I would make something for the boys from it but then I got a little inspiration and decided to use this sexy wiggle dress pattern again (with a straight neckline this time).
The fabric has a great little texture in it almost snake-skin-ish but really miniature.
So I'll remix next week!

Outfit - dress -$0 all from stash, Belt- $10 on sale from Dotti, Shoes $2 NZ made, Over-cardi thingy Op-Shop hand-me-down.
Looks like you remixed it - the red cardi makes it look like a skirt? What is the print - the dress is drop dead gorgeous. x
ReplyDeleteI think because it is a good shape for me it works. I like the yellow in it too. The print is old school racing cars
Deletethat dress looks lovely on you, very flattering shape:) I also agree with nin, the cardi does make it look like a skirt!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I am remixing after all!!!
DeleteYou are clever! Great colours too!
ReplyDeleteThanks - making clothes is easy than it appears from the outside I assure you - the way I sew anyway!
DeleteGorgeous! And I thought it was a skirt at first too. Love the way you wear so much colour with such flair :)
ReplyDeleteThanks - I do love colour it makes me feel happy!

Deletelove the dress! (and the blog!) i think you've inspired me to try nad make myself a dress too (something ive been scared of for far too long!) Mezz
ReplyDeleteIt's so satisfying and a lot easier than you might think. Stoked to think I might have inspired you!
DeleteFeeling really inspired by your stitching cleverness. The colour and style totally suit you.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I do love a wardrobe full of colour!

ReplyDeleteThanks and to you! I love using fabric in unexpected ways
DeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric choice.... And you soooo suit the wiggle!!! x
ReplyDeleteIt's great when you find a shape that works for you. The wiggle is good for me but not so practical for bike riding unfortunately! :o)
