Burda Style For people who sew
Just wondering if you’ve heard about The Uniform Project. I just read about it today & it’s fascinating. A woman is wearing the same dress (well 7 identical copies of the same dress) every day for a year to raise money for an education charity in India. Each day she posts piccys of what she is wearing & she is trying to accessorise etc with borrowed, found & gifted items.
Check it out here:

and here

the dress she is wearing is fab & it’s a great lesson in styling & bringing personality to clothes.
GreenEbay has got behind her too and they are donating $1 for every person who joins up – and if you live in USA they will give more money – see http://www.ebaygreenteam.com/ns/ebay-green.html for more details.
Hope you enjoy the links too – I’ve joined her facebook group so I can see what she is wearing every day ;o) INSPIRING
