The Saltmarsh Skirt

Here is another project from the Merchant and Mills Workbook (first one here). I may be slightly obsessed....

Called the Saltmarsh, this drawstring skirt pattern was just fun to sew, and I love the maxi length. It is just such a great versatile piece to add in any wardrobe.

Saltmarsh skirt worn with Topshop tank top and old Converse sneakers
The best part about this skirt...it has pockets, you guys! Pockets! :D
Fabric used:100% polyester linen look
(Sorry for the weird lighting. These were taken in the afternoon before it started to rain.)

Do you have any addition to your wardrobe lately that you are really loving?

I love your daughters "vogue" in the last image. And that skirt is fabulous, I love that it has pockets. I wouldn't have noted this until you mentioned it.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
