Flare leggings

 

 

 

First try of the Flare Leggings and I love how they look. The fit is OK, but next time I'll probably go one size up as it they are a little too tight around my upper legs and hips to be super comfortable.

Kirsten Kimono Tee


The Kirsten Kimono Tee is one of my favourite shirts.  I love how it fits and how versatile it is, depending on the fabric you use. 

This is one of the 'fancier' ones, with a slightly adjusted neckline. As usual I cut the neckline with a 2cm seam allowance, although I forgot to add extra space at the shoulder seams. So it would lie flat when folded in. Therefore I added a facing (correct English terminology? , beleg in Dutch).

As usual I also added 2cm to the lenght of the Tee.

Dolman sleeve top

Another of my favourite top patterns: the Dolmann sleeve top. 

This time I went for a slightly slimmer fit and made a size S instead of the usual M. I did make some adjustments: 

  • Sleeves + 10cm
  • Lentgh +4cm (2cm at waist and 2 at the hem)
  • Front neckline size S at shoulderseam and size L center front (so it sits a little higher)

I am really looking forward to wearing this one when the weather cools down. Love the fall colours.
