Man, I wish the lighting were more reliable in this corner of the house! And that it wasn't next to the front door... I keep worrying that the roommates or the UPS man will walk by and see me through the frosted glass and laugh at me.
Anyway, this is what I wore to run errands and make a run to my new favorite fabric store Intown Quilters. This shirtdress was a last-minute purchase. I thought about it for weeks and weeks and supply kept trickling down. I finally broke down and bought it, full price and all as a little Christmas gift to myself. I was at my local store today, and it looks like there are quite a few left in both solids! The printed check is really adorable too. Very cute with cowboy boots and a fringey accessory.
It's also a very good substitute for the DVF shirtdress that Jennifer Garner seems to love. You know, this one?
Comes in primary colors, very girly and preppy and prim? Love it. I'm excited to wear this little dress year round. It is a lined breathable cotton, and will be great even in summer if I lose the tights. So many possibilities with this one!
And what did I pick up at the fabric shop? A bunch of fat quarters--perfect for a new quilting project in the new year.
Assortment of Amy Butler prints!

THE DvF dress. Google J. Garner. You will see.

This is actually a handselected assortment of Amy Butler's "Love" collection. I'm excited to finally have good-sized snippets of all of these to work with! Once I graph out my pattern fully, I'll start posting my progress.
1. I keep wanting to buy that belt even though I have almost the same belt but with embossed flowers on it. Maybe I should get the black one.
ReplyDelete2. I tried the reed dress on when it first came in but its all wrong for my shape. I'm thinking about trying it on one more time just to make sure because I love it that much.
3. What's your kitty's name?
That Shirtdress looks like it was made with your body in mind. The fit looks immaculate. I'm kicking myself now for not having bought it in the navy- it's sold out in every frigging size online, and my store (tysons, va) never got it! >.<
