How to Wear DIY: A holiday dress
To be festive, right around Christmas I'm happy I got to wear this plaid dress I made last winter. It really feels most appropriate at the holidays. Red and black plaid, so it could go any time of winter, but it was a lot of fun with gold jewelry and nails on Christmas Eve Eve!
I could have worn it with cute heels, of course, but I wanted to keep it relaxed. I wore my cozy black riding boots. Think preppy, classic...
You can almost feel the chilly Oregon day, can't you? It's pretty grey here this time of year.
Tee: Old Navy. Necklace and belt: ? Boots: Steve Madden via Overstock.com. Dress: DIY!
Do you dress festively for the holidays? Pretty soon I'll got to get out of the red/gold/glitter phase after New Year's, won't I....
You look so cute! I love the fit of the dress on you, it's very flattering.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is amazing - great styling!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the dress with the wide belt and the long sleeved black tee underneath. Looks super cozy.
ReplyDeleteAaw, thanks, ladies!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! I need to finish sewing a dress I started a few months ago ( :/ ) because it would look cute with long sleeves under it too! If I don't hurry I won't have time to wear it with long sleeves!! The South warms up pretty quick haha!
ReplyDeleteLearning how to sew a dress is very easy. The only tricky part in learning this skill is learning how to draft a pattern as well as measuring your body. But once you learn these, everything else is easy.
