The April 2021 cover of Instyle magazine featuring Melissa McCarthy in a tie dye dress (Ten Pieces) and patchwork jacket (Romance Was Born) was a joyful fashion moment during a cruddy early spring of inclement late winter weather and continuing pandemic lockdown. I just LOVED the joyful technicolor eclecticism of her outfit. Angie’s blog on patchwork as a trend got me thinking about doing a copy cat.


Today I went for a haircut (yay!) and wore my new lilac linen dress. Afterwards, with the help of DS#1, and using a quilt made by me, I styled a copy cat moment!

Thanks for looking! Hope you are having fun with fashion!

#1 the inspiration and the copy cat - lilac linen dress (Aritzia), tie dye mask and quilt (made by me) I did not get the brilliant sun Instyle and MM got during their Australian shoot, unfortunately.

#2 what I actually wore!
#3 the quilt
