Well we have the first week over and it seems I’ve been a little premature getting my summer dresses out. We’ve had a couple of good days but instead of sandals I’ve been relying on my boots.
Anyway, here’s the run down:
Day one
Spotty Deer and Doe Plantain, Navy Miette and Liberty Scarf
This is possibly my on the project work uniform!
Day two
Colette Hawthorn (unblogged)
Had wanted to wear something a bit more summery but it was cold and windy so decided on my winter Hawthorn as it’s one of my warmest dresses.
Day three
Sunday pottering around dress
Day four
Marilla Walker Evan Skirt with stripy Deer and Doe Plantain
Bank holiday Monday, generally pottering with a bit of sewing time.
Day five
Combination of work and running around trying to catch up with all the things that usually get done on a Monday!
Day six
Grainline Archer and stripy Hemlock tee
On the project and a variation on the Miette, with an Archer instead.
Day seven
Deer and Doe Chardon skirt with stripy Grainline Hemlock
Cold and windy again so out came the boots, black ones this time though!
Musings so far:
- There has only been two days out of the week that I didn’t wear Grainline or Deer and Doe, I have made other patterns!
- I rely heavily on my Hemlocks and Plantains, I didn’t realise how heavily until seeing the evidence! (I have made a couple of Maria Denmarks’ Kimono tees so I am starting to be a little more adventurous)
- I like the stripes with the Chardon, I couldn’t find my black Plantain which I usually wear with it and just grabbed the first thing that came to hand. Quite like the idea of using stripes as a neutral.
- I could probably do with more than one pose although in my defence the bathroom is north facing and I’m trying to turn towards the light!
How are you getting on with MMMay? Have you encountered any startling revelations yet?
I’m impressed by the size of your mirror! You can show off the entirety of your lovely outfits now!
It’s actually not that big, I just stand further away and zoom in a bit! 😊
Nice outifts! The plantain is my most favourite knit top too,no shame in wearing them loads!
It’s definitely my favourite too, the fit is just perfect!
great round-up! I really like the heavy influence of deer and doe – such lovely patterns. I love the fact you’ve added thoughts too – i’m yet to assess!! 🙂
Thank you! I’m making an effort to add a bit of variety this week but it’s interesting to see which things I reach for first!
Such fantastic outfits! This is my first me made may and i think things are going to get quite repetative!
Hope you are enjoying it, it’s lovely to see your pictures on instagram!
I only have one pose too. I never realised I had one side more photographic than the other until I started blogging 🙂 Lovely outfits, despite the unseasonable weather.
I have loved all your memademay outfits!!
