As today was such a nice sunny day I decided to slip on the dress I made a couple of days ago and pose for a few pictures (please excuse the awful red bra straps).
I've never been a summer person and I really am not a fan of being all hot and sweaty and clammy but the thing I do like about the heat is that I don't need to wear jackets or jumpers which I feel sometimes cover up a nice outfit (I also can't complain about all the cute topless boys wandering around my neighbourhood!). The fact that I live a five minute walk from the beach and I only went once last year kind of tells you that I'm not an outdoorsy person.
I love the fabric of the dress! I came across it in the cut offs bin at an opshop and it only cost my $4! I didn't get the neckline quite right and its a bit baggy and not V neck enough but it turned out a lot better than I thought it was going to. I made the pattern myself which made me very unsure of whether it would fit right or look how i expected it to but it did which gives me a bit more confidence in my own ability!
I would say that I hope there's many more summer days like this, but to be honest I'm not that bothered... But I'm sure once we head back into winter I'll be complaining about the cold so I guess its good that that is not going to be for a while.
