Another Summer Dress
I still have to write my review, but I thought I'd share my new dress here. You can't see it very well, but the collar has an orange trim and some buttons at the v-neck. The cute collar disappears in my print. I would have followed Debbie's advise to make the collar in a contrast color, but nothing in my stash would work and I'm trying to shop only from my stash. I added a tie belt, but it too disappears in the print. I need to add lingerie stays because, even though I widened the shoulders 1", my bra straps show a tiny bit. I'm not happy with the pictures, but I still haven't figured out how to get the settings back to where they were before Son got a hold of my camera.

he details do get lost a bit but the fabric is super cute and the cut of the dress is very flattering on you. So all in all I'd say very nice.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and very summery! I'm positively green with envy. I'm currently wearing polarfleece and I'm heading out soon into 5 deg Celsius (41F). This morning it was black ice everywhere and -4 deg C (24.8F). :(
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice summery dress!
ReplyDeleteI love the trim on your collar - I think your dress turned out great! Good for you for shopping from your stash. :)
ReplyDeleteSherril - you are getting there! I agree that this is a nice cut for your figure and you are working on making the details stand out more. I think your next versions of this dress will be stunning, can't wait to see them!
ReplyDeleteSherril, you look fabulous! Love your new picture and the colors in the print are spot on for you. Personally, I think the scale of the print is awesome and just right for you. All JMHO!Is that a rolled hem edge on the collar?
ReplyDeleteVery pretty dres Sherrill! I'm shopping from stash these days too. And I'm jealous of your Aug 19 report date. Mine is Aug 1!!!
