Burda Style For people who sew
Description
What’s good? The pattern: Straightforward. Pretty. What’s not so good? The fabric, which reminds me of that line from Steel Magnolias about throwing up Pepto Bismol.
Because I’m totally shameless, I’ve no doubt I’ll wear this thing until it falls apart. I think I’ve hit my bureaucratic boiling point, and the wardrobe’s the first and clearest indication. This weekend, I purged my closet, flinging the drab gray and brown discount workwear into a donation pile with particular glee.
I’m gradually reembracing my tendency to dress like should be slapped with warning label for epileptics, and it feels so right.
