I was just thinking how good you look in orange- I think this may be your season for fashion. Nice job on the dressmaking. Very professional looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550968 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 12:40:32 +0000 Fruitful 550968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen, great to see your pics and smile! I love the orange on you - not only current but wonderful with your colouring. The dress is so lovely and bright and looks like the perfect thing for a warm day! Wish I could sew too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550955 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 11:28:30 +0000 Anonymous 550955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember you! Nice to see your post. These are great summer outfits! I love the orange on you and how the nude sandals just seem to disappear on your legs. The dress you custom made is perfect for you; great accessorizing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550947 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 10:26:01 +0000 Deborah 550947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen, really good to see you. Both outfits are perfect for our summer. The dress you made is really lovely and I would not have picked it as "home made". In fact I think it's very Witchery. What else have you made? You have pulled off stylish while looking fresh and cool for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550943 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 09:36:54 +0000 stringy 550943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely! Do you like the quality of Sass and Bide items? And I'm so impressed by your dressmaking skills! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550939 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 08:58:19 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 550939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550918 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 07:54:51 +0000 diane 550918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Summer, what's that? I live in the Pacific NW!!! Summer lasts for 3 weeks, at best!</p> <p>I love that you made that dress. It is perf!!!<br /> I like the first photo too. orange and dark blue is a great combo!!!</p> <p>As a fellow seamstress, I just bought a Vogue pattern for a jacket because I cannot find one to fit! I think being a sewing-type-person jades your view on the quality and fit of clothes that come straight off the racks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550858 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 05:55:29 +0000 fashionista 550858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Going green with envy!!! Such nice dresses. "You made the summer dress"- WOW!!!<br /> Desperately waiting for summer to come back again.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550852 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 05:49:16 +0000 AJ 550852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Pics from puffenstuff!!</p> <p>1) Dark grey and orange look fabulous together! The strappy sandals and feather earrings are wonderful finishing touches to a terrific summer outfit!</p> <p>2) Kudos on making this dress yourself! The coral(?) color is beautiful on you. Hmmm....maybe I need to break out my sewing machine and find a simple pattern for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550846 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 05:41:13 +0000 Jonesy 550846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun to see you again!

I'm really glad to see you back. </p> <p>I love you in that style of skirt and top, it looks so breezy and fresh. I'm very impressed with your sewing. I'm super sure we'll have another heat-wave.... just as soon as we have acclimatised to the cooler weather! (Oh, I am so cynical.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550809 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 04:30:46 +0000 MNsara 550809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How nice to 'see' you again, Karen! I'm inspired by your sewing (and wish I'd be inspired enough to take on my alterations pile!) Love your oranges - the tee and your new dress!</p> <p>I'm also lusting after your tropical backyard! Green is probably my favorite color </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550798 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 04:05:12 +0000 Jewell 550798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first outfit, but I love that dress you made! Looks like a perfect dress for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550777 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 03:24:04 +0000 sarah 550777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a terrific dress!

I'm really impressed that you made it yourself. And I love the color combo in pic 1. The corally red and inky blue go so well together. Enjoy the warm weather! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-overdue-wiw-and-some-creativity#post-550767 Sun, 26 Feb 2012 02:58:59 +0000 puffenstuff 550767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well it's been way too long since I posted, almost 5 months ago eek!! Life just seems to fly by way too fast and I'm just a passenger. </p> <p>The 1st photo is what I wore today to run some errands. It's nothing special but I liked the combo of colors and cool enough on a humid day. I'm wearing Witchery silk charcoal skirt, Sass &amp; Bide Orange Tee, some no-name sandals and feather earrings.</p> <p>Part of what's been keeping me busy this summer is sewing. I've had such a passion for it this season especially when it's so hard to find exactly what you want in the shops. 2nd photo is of my latest creation, a simple summer dress made of a light cotton voile. Knowing my luck the weather will turn cool and I wont get the chance to wear it! </p>
