I confess I’m quite a magpie. I adore sequins. If it were socially acceptable I would wear sequins to work as well as out at night. In order to bridge the gap between party-wear and are work-appropriate I found some nice understated, yet bespangled tops. Enjoy.
The other day when I was choosing fabric with my sister for her birthday dress (link here) I saw these in the end of roll basket.
I know – white wool – what an extravagance!!! …and how impractical…
A long time ago I blogged about Capes, Yay or Nay? after I first fell in love with Erica’s Camel Cape. Since then I’ve seen some lovely capes that other bloggers have made. The overwheming response was that people in blogland think that capes are awesome. And who am I to argue with bloggers? (A very opinionated lot!) So I guess I’m making a cape.
I think I’ll go with the same pattern Erica used – Vogue 8776. I love that this pattern is loose fitted and has the high collar so snuggle my face into when it gets cold.
So more opinions please – shall I go with this pattern and this fabric?
Can you guess what I’m going to make next?
