'She wore blue... satin!'

Hello! I've been sat infront of my sewing machine for every spare minute this week, with numerous projects on the go! My family said that my room has pretty much turned into a clothes production line, and I think that's quite a fair assessment...

The latest addition to my homemade clothes pile (and it really is a pile... my wardrobe seems to have just exploded all over my bedroom floor, woops...) is this blue satin dress, very loosely inspired by that beautiful silk TBA dress which I've been lusting over for far too long. My own version is lacking a peter-pan collar and generally lacking everything that is lustworthy in the original (the silk, the cut, the colour, the details...), but at least I managed to add some lace to the sleeves!

I copied the pattern from this tunic and made some adjustments. The entire thing cost £2.35.

I planned to make a matching waist-tie as well, but I ran out of fabric...

Dress - Homemade
Hat - H&M
Scarf - Mackays via a charity shop
Tights - H&M
Shoes - Clarks

I'm very excited about finishing my current project! But I'll leave you all in suspense about what it is :) hehe.
