Day 25 - TGIF

I'm very proud of my outfit today. Why? Because I made the jacket. It is is the best thing I have ever made - even if I do say so myself.

It is a Simplicity Project Runway Pattern (and yes I am addicted to that TV programme!). The reason, I imagine, that it is called a Project Runway pattern is that you can be a bit of a fashion designer with it. There are alternative collars, sleeves, cuffs and trims so you can mix and match and create your own jacket. I went with a cuffless 3/4 length sleeve and knotted collar and red lining!

The top is new, I bought it yesterday to go with the jacket, it's low V is made more modest with my red bandana top which links in nicely to the red stripe in the jacket. And my shoes, that are not visible in the photo unfortunately, are yellow-ish and that ties in the yellow stripe so all in all I feel very put together today.

I don't know about you but I've noticed a trend that as each week progresses my outfits get better. Monday is a struggle, Tuesday that not much better but by the time I hit Friday I've really hit my stride!

Speaking of Friday - tonight is the X Factor Final, the photographer and I have a bet. I'm going for Sally, he is going for Altiyan - the loser has to cook the other breakfast in bed... really hope I win... am gagging for pancakes!
