| Coat: Made by me, but fabric is Amy Butler
Maryville has had some really crappy weather lately. The other day it was 50 degrees and sunny then around 3 o'clock it dropped to 16 degrees and started flurrying. The number of outfit changes I have gone through this week has been insane. I feel awful for my roommate because she has to look at a huge pile of clothes on my desk and my over-flooding laundry basket. I think she is a saint right now haha!
Okay, but this is one of my favorite coats. I made it my last year of high school and I'm still just as much obsessed with it. It's lined with a cool lime green material (pictured in top left photo) and the fabric is made by Amy Butler. It is such a groovy coat, every time I slip it on I think I'm Carrie Bradshaw in "The Carrie Diaries". In this photo I paired it with some classic brown riding boots and tan leggings that I think I picked up at Marshall's. It works great though with dark jeans and pink rain boots, which is how I styled it earlier this week.
Until next time--

Did you learn design clothing in High School or on your own? Regardless, what prompted you to start? I think its pretty cool how some people stick to creating articles of clothing by hand when the new standard has them made in bulk by machines.
ReplyDeleteI love that coat!! You did an incredible job designing and making it. I also like the way you gave a full view of it and some close ups. I bet it was nice to have something to brighten up these dreary Maryville days.
ReplyDeleteOMG you made this?!?! It is really cute and amazing. I think it's awesome that you can make your own clothing but I do agree it has been crappy weather in Maryville. Hopefully it get's better this weekend!
