Commenter Lynne sent me the link to this dress from Posh Girl Vintage
I’m really pleased with this Heidi (which I have been working on in ten-minute bursts for WEEKS, it’s been so busy here). Even though it looks like nothing in the picture:
It’s this lovely heavy cotton with a thin orange stripe. Think a cross between ticking and seersucker. Bought it from Fabric Mart Fabrics, very cheap!
I plan to wear it with a white sweater and an orange watch, or maybe an orange sweater and a white watch, and white penny loafers. And then I will eat a Creamsicle.
Here’s a closeup of the fabric/pocket:
See? Very subtle, for me. Except for it being ORANGE.
I also took some more pictures of previously-constructed Heidi dresses and will try to post some this week. Stay tuned!
Commenter Lynne sent me the link to this dress from Posh Girl Vintage, which combines two of my favorite things: buttons and polka dots.
It’s pique, too, so I guess that makes it three of my favorite things. Oh, wait — piping — that’s four. If only it had pockets …
It’s a little small (maybe a modern 6?) but it’s so adorable.
