Me-Made-May part 1


So far my first Me-Made-May is going good! Apart from a horrible day with a huge hangover and three days when I had to wear a eye patch because of something strange with my eye, I managed to get Instagram pics every day :) 

On the non-Instagrammed days I did wear me mades, mostly my geometric pleated pants and hot cocoa top.. I just wanted to spare you (and myself) those pics.. 
Day 1: My first wiggle dress, pre-blog, but one of my favourite makes so far. 

Day 2: Roxanne shirt, also one of my favourite makes!

 Day 3: Also pre-blog, a self drafted shirt made with super soft cats and rabbit print cotton from Purl Soho.. I had a 24 hour work shift, so comfort was very important :)

 Day 4: After a 24 hr work shift comfort is also important, so I wore my self drafted knit shirt (same pattern as day 3). Milo was very photogenic that day..

 Day 5: Plaid Archer and my waterproof Minoru, it was a very rainy day so perfect choice!

 Day 6: Rigel bomber, Portside duffle and unblogged Hot cocoa top. I got an unexpected call that I had to work another double shift, luckily I had Me-Made-May covered..

 Day 7: Relaxing after another double shift in my geometric print pleated pants, made from the same self drafted pattern as these.

 Day 8: Drape Drape dress, which I'm going to blog about soon!


Day 14: Geometric sweater and again the pleated pants.. Feeling slightly better, but still one-eyed so therefore a headless pic.. 

Day 15: Victoria blazer in silk/linen, also still unblogged.. One of my makes for Sewing Indie Month, so going to be blogged soon! As you can see my right eye is still acting strange.. 

Day 16: My Belladone, super comfy and great for a nice summer day like today!

So far I really like Me-Made-May, although I do wish we would get some warmer weather. I found out that I either have wool/winter things or summer dresses. Most of my summer dresses can be worn with tights/sweaters, but they are still packed away because of the cold and rainy weather we were having..

Also I already found out that I like to sew tops and dresses, but I'm lacking self made skirts badly.. Vogue 1247 just arrived in my mail box, so I'm hoping to remedy that soon :)

How is your Me-Made-May going? I'm enjoying seeing all of your outfits so much! It's super cool to see how everyone styles their outfits differently..

  4. Thanks! The bomber is a fake suede fabric and it is lined with silk.. I really need to make more bottoms though, I guess I just prefer my good fitting rtw jeans too much..
