When I got to Toronto last year, Karyn had just finished this dress. All she had left to do were the buttons. It was just too freaking cute. And I was all, hey, I want to make one of those...
so I did
the pictures aren't spectacular, my hair is looking ultra stringy! but it was Friday night at midnight, and I had a lot of work to get done, but I realized I needed to take a pic to show my peeps or you'd never see the sleeves!!!
I used the Blue Red Letter Day stripe from Hello Pilgrim, and the meadow print from the blue colorway for the lining and the pockets. I also covered the buttons with different prints from the line. It's a fantastic pattern, and that is coming from a dyslexic right brainer who has the hardest time wrapping myself around other peeps instructions. That's why my patterns are fully illustrated, and broken down to a point that I can be all about.
So all I have to say is two can play at the cute game, Anthropologie.
I made the dress on Thursday, and I was so excited that I wore it out that night, and I hadn't even put in the hem. When my friend was dropping me off, I said something sassy, and then he said, "Oh, go hem your dress." In a really funny tone. It made me laugh, and then I didn't hem my dress yet. Because no one tells me what to do.
kidding
sort of.
Oh and Mona Lisa eyebrows here... they exist, you just can't really see them.
