Day Eight: Sunday
Sunday was special, as it was Mother's Day. I had my two youngest children home for the weekend and was spoilt by all of my four children. I wore my floral denim Style Arc Stacie Jean Jacket over a Deer and Doe Plantain tee in stone coloured merino knit. The jeans are RTW.
Day Nine: Monday
Back to work wearing Grainline Studio Morris Blazer in royal blue Monaco double knit from Knitwit, Style Arc Ann T-Top in white cotton/lycra jersey and Style Arc Sara skirt in black stretch bengaline.
Day Ten: Tuesday
Work day again, wearing Vogue 8805 in black ponte and black and white printed scuba knit. This dress is so comfy and easy to wear.
Day Eleven: Wednesday
Catching the last rays of sunshine after work, wearing an old favourite: Style Arc Kristen Dress in charcoal ponte layered over a Grainline Studio Archer Shirt in white cotton voile. Another very comfy outfit.
Day Twelve: Thursday
After wearing sombre colours the last two days I felt like wearing something bright. I pulled this Style Arc Laura Dress in cream ponte and printed scuba knit from the depths of my wardrobe. I haven't worn this dress in ages but it fit the bill. My Style Arc Nina Cardigan in purple jersey matched nicely. I certainly added a little colour to the office today.
Day Thirteen: Friday
Last day at work for the week and still warm enough to wear my latest favourite: the Style Arc Hedy Designer Dress. Another comfy yet stylish dress to take me through the working day and the weekly grocery shopping afterwards.
Day Fourteen: Saturday
A beautiful balmy day...25 degrees in the middle of May...very unusual. We went shopping in the morning and I wore my Style Arc Lulu Tunic in pink linen and Style Arc Elle pants in white stretch bengaline. Spent the afternoon cleaning up the driveway after getting new roof guttering installed on the house. I didn't get around to changing and was quite pleased with myself for managing to keep my white pants clean.
Very pleased with my progress so far: sticking to my pledge of wearing two me made garments per day. The few days where I have worn a dress without another garment, have been balanced out by the days where I have worn three me made garments. It has been lot's of fun seeing what everyone else has been wearing.
Happy sewing
