Layering for Fall - and becoming a chiffony

Hi!

I finally finished a top I started a while ago, a beautiful georgette print that I got from The Common Thread.

I have a love-hate relationship with these fabrics. While I love the look of a sheer top, sewing and caring for them is not easy. If you follow Project Runway, you know that there was a clique forming who would only use chiffon and silk on everything. Am I becoming one of them? Oh no!

They do make for great layering pieces, which are a must here in Austin, as the weather starts to cool down.

Want to get a similar look? Try here.


 







What I am wearing:
Cardigan - J.Crew
Top - made by me 
Jeans - Banana Republic
Shoes - Madewell

Love,

Sam

    1. Hi! Oh, I wish could do a better job sewing to sell my designs. I am glad you enjoyed it!

      Loved the black and white look on your latest post, specially the shoes.
