As promised in my post https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....r-of-pants here are the pictures of the finished DIY blazer. [Thanks everyone for helping me choose the pants!] I was waiting to complete my pants and the blouse to post this, but Angie's today's post inspired me to share this so I could link it.
I couldn't capture the correct color of my blazer, as you see it looks different in every photo, but it is a deep burgundy on the cool side, not brownish. It has a lot of details and took me a while to complete it, but I love the end result. So, my Burgundy Capsule came about organically around this jacket. I already had most of the items - and I added a couple of sweaters (striped and the ivory) and bought the Chuck Taylor hi-tops, but I may return them. I am not sure if I'll wear those sneakers. I think I'll buy a pair of burgundy pointy toe flats instead. That will be more useful for my lifestyle. Also, in progress are the blouse and the trousers. I'm using the check fabric for those trousers and I'll post the pictures when I finish sewing. The blouse is almost done, I just need to attach the sleeves and hem. Inspired by Angie's post, i will purchase a belt like hers and the WHBM jeans. I have lots of accessories & other items for this capsule, but I didn't have time to take pictures. What do you think?
