Sometimes when we wear our favourite clothes, we want an excuse to wear them more often but something holds us back ... like cold weather. I love wearing my linen pinafore dress all year round but it gets cold here so I often have to wear a jumper over the top of it BUT I don't like how it looks with the dress.
So I came across a cute sewing pattern called the Alpine Top that had a curved front so it would actually look like I'm wearing a dress not a skirt when I'm wearing it. So yep, I purchased the pattern, got it printed and also bought some fancy warm material and made it.
I love it.
I struck a few set backs on the way that I vlogged here.... but otherwise the top is awesome! Only three pattern pieces - so easy! I'm definitely going to make myself a couple more!
