Top and skirt in a solid black and a printed jersey fabric.
For the top I use the Lydia Pattern. I made a scoop neckline with a lace trim and added a hem at the bottom in the printed fabric.
The skirt has a wide black waistband that can be folded if desired. I attached the same lace as the top on the bottom of the skirt. I didn’t use a pattern for the skirt. I took about 130 cm on 40 cm of the printed fabric, made two pleats in the front and sewed it onto the 70cm wide black waistband (about 20cm high). Easy to make… I made this set in less then 3 hours and wore it to work the next day :)
