In red this time

This is the third time I've sewn this dress pattern. First in off-white, then in black. I know this is what most people would call a "sack" but guys, it's really such a versatile and comfortable dress to wear. Made with linen fabric, it's just perfect for the summer.

Dress I sewed using the Bantam vest pattern from the Merchant and Mills Workbook, worn with Birkenstocks



from Saks Off 5th

Are you a fan of loose dresses like this?

Anyhoo, have a fab week ahead, everyone:)

Linen is one of my favourite textiles, because of its versatility. Great dress on you Emmy, and the jewellery looks nice with this as well! :)

That's a great shade of red! I like this type of loose silhouette for vacationing or the beach but I prefer more defined waist looks for the city. You can't beat the comfort though ;p

That's like a slip on dress and a sack?! Hell no, this type of dress is currently on trend and it's beautiful! And definitely something that I would wear so I could eat to my heart content over a BBQ or something...

I can see why you'd repeat this pattern. It looks easy breezy, comfy and perfect for summer. I love the color. I'd probably choose this over the black or the off white.

I totally wouldn't call it a sack. I think it is great for hot summer days when you have to put something on but everything seems like work! Plus, you look fab in red!

I'm a huge fan! I love simplicity! Sew it in all colors. Emmy, in the winter you can add a turtleneck underneath. Looks great on you and I love the color.

I don't do well with loose dresses. I love the way they feel but they just make me look way bigger than I really am.

 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.)
