American eagle jeans, tee & plaid shirt; Gap cardigan; Payless shoes
It was a beautifully sunny day, but there was still a little chill. I've got three layers going on the top just so I didn't have to wear a jacket. Meanwhile my little brother decides he doesn't need a sweater and wears a t-shirt all day. How the heck do boys do it, honestly? It's such a mystery to me...
I wore this outfit to the fabric store to buy myself some, well, fabric to do a couple DIY projects. Two dresses to be exact. I was full-steam ahead in one of them until I realized I didn't have the right colour thread. Since then my motivation and inspiration has passed, and I just stare at the pile of fabric wishing it would sew itself. Anyone got any ideas on how to motivate myself to finish these projects? They look really daunting to me right now...
And welcome to the new followers! Happy Friday to everyone!
I love the mix of plaid and leopard. I am no help in the motivation department. I can't sew and it just took me a month to motivate myself to sew some loose buttons back on some shirts.

The ideal spring outfit! I am not longer allowed to wear too many layers, it hit 90 degrees the other day, which I would perfectly fine with but I'm not prepared.
ReplyDeleteThe layering looks so cute, Kelly! I guess the motivation would be two new dresses? I don't know how to sew so I have no idea how much work these projects entail. Have a great weekend!

True... Maybe I'll try and finish them this weekend. Two new dresses is a pretty good trade-off for about a day's work.
DeleteHa-ha i hear ya! Cute outfit :)

Hey! Thanks for stopping by my blog. So you sew? I used to when I had time. I miss it! I do want to try and make a pair of pants in the next few weeks. It will be the first thing I have done in 2 years!

Well, to be honest I can't REALLY sew. I just pretend I can :) I take on super simple projects because I know that they're do-able. The dresses are very easy patterns and shouldn't take too long/don't have too much room for error. But in the end it's always fun to say to yourself "I did that".
DeletePants though? Don't know if I could. Please share them if you get around to making them! I'd love to see :)
beautiful layers, love the tartan! now following :)
