Awesome styling - I would wear this whole look in a New York minute! <br /><br />Big hugs,<br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-46290948108539821052013-11-06T00:51:40.295-06:002013-11-06T00:51:40.295-06:00Haha, thank you!

I really wasn't quite sure of how it would translate to real life. Luckily, my awesome grandmother had made a mock up before I arrived, so I had something to try on to help me visualize. (I really appreciated that! I hate doing mock ups.)<br />I also prefer more fitted pieces, but I do like the dramatic contrast between the flowy coat and fitted pencil skirt. It makes all the proportions look rather flattering, I think!Emileigh https://www.blogger.com/profile/13683866769745929646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-12194771416932201272013-11-06T00:48:55.376-06:002013-11-06T00:48:55.376-06:00Thank you so much, Lindsey!

I would not have a CLUE how to begin sewing one...especially a fabric that had to be matched (PLAID?!?! You're a sewing zealot!) I think I would adore one in a brown tweed...very snazzy. (Isn't that a 50's way to say FAB?!)

I ...I didn't know they re-issused this pattern! I sold the original in my Etsy shop ages ago.<br /><br />I wasn't quite sure what to think of it when I saw it. I thought it may be nice, if you wore a corsage or bulky brooch, otherwise, not much of a fan. For my personal style, I like more fitted pieces. But regardless of my personal feelings as it of I'd wear it, it looks good on you! It's very flowy. And that hat is amazing!<br />xoxo<br />-JaneyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-46124314640206343372013-11-05T12:49:24.056-06:002013-11-05T12:49:24.056-06:00ah, i love love these bright blue tights here! you...ah, i love love these bright blue tights here! your whole outfit looks great! i also sent you my ad in an email! <br /><br />lindsey louise<br /><br />hellomrrabbitblog.com Lindsey Louise Baleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16158525871866334891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7382754892322119466.post-85647948443856025982013-11-05T11:26:32.016-06:002013-11-05T11:26:32.016-06:00Nice, I like it!
