So here is my latest love. Not my usual style and not a particularly original design, it's not haute couture, and dear old Vivienne Westwood, needn't get twitchy, but I love it mostly because I made this skirt from scratch, from the blank peice of paper, to the outfit I wore to work today. Did i say that I love it! It's comfortable, it's pretty, it's summery, it was cheap to make, and it's just what I wanted. But best of all ..
The lining! I was going to sew a boring old black lining as being broderanglaise it's a bit transparent! But then I found some black netting, and some red organza which has been in my stash for ages .. oh such delight!
thats a great skirt, I wish I was clever enough to make my own clothes x
ReplyDeletePS hows Marley doing?
oh wow...
ReplyDeleteand I was pleased with my a-line skirt!
doh.
A skirt...I thought so, and hoped so! ;o) It is simply gorgeous, Julia. The a-line styling is so flattering and I love the fabrics selected. The extra red with the lining makes it sizzle--oh, la, la!! I so wish I more clever at sewing clothing after seeing this. Happy weekend, my friend ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteI think that skirts sums you up perfectly...A quite normal exterior but a not so normal, sassy if not sexy interior ;o)
