Alright, here we go! My first 'Self-Stitched' or daily journal of wearing only things that I've made. I committed to wearing at least one item that I made each day in September. Here are the first four days.
Day 1:
What I wore:
My Plaid Summer Dress! I really don't know why I called it a summer dress as it's really an everyday staple, but I did make it in June. Anyways, I digress. I wear this dress quite a bit as it's perfect for work. It's a good dress to kick off my self-stitched September challenge!
Day 2:
What I wore:
My Spring Stripes dress that I made back in April. I actually haven't worn this dress since I made it as I was worried about looking like a candy striper. It was a beautiful day in the Bay Area so I decided to go girl-y and wear it. I actually received a lot of compliments on it throughout the day which re-invigorated my faith in the dress. I'll definitely be wearing it again soon.
Day 3:
What I wore:
My first day of a week-end full of dance competitions. I wore two outfits that I made back in the beginning of my sewing projects. My Irish jig dress and Sailor's hornpipe outfit. I was in the fairgrounds for most of the day so when I wasn't wearing my dance outfits, I was in my typical dance capris and workout wear.
Day 4:
What I wore:
Second day of dance competitions, however I didn't get to wear my Highland jacket that I just finished, so you'll have to wait for a picture of that one. I spent most of the day in an aboyne costume, but when I wasn't, I was wearing my Summer Sails dress.
This dress is one of my favorites and also one of my most worn items. It's perfect for a competition day because I can easily slip it over my head without messing with my hair and makeup. I didn't wear it with anything exciting as I was constantly changing.
I love the green striped dress. It goes well with your car too!
