I don't know why everybody at my job is so eager to wear jeans to work. We can only do so on certain occasions. Well Wednesday is special--for some reason. Not only are we supposed to wear jeans, we're supposed to wear plaid too! Me, in plaid...say it ain't so. The pattern is McCalls 6122.
Actually I like it a lot and it's extremely comfortable. Call me a plaid convert!
I made my usual wide back adjustment and FBA. As part of my FBA I added a horizontal bust dart at the side seam.
FYI I never leave home without my sunglasses or a purse that matches my outfit. A diva's gotta do what a diva's gotta do! You can read the full review at Pattern Review
Very cute top Lady!!!! You look great in plaid and that style:)
ReplyDeleteWell I would call this plaid, but it looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous. That is one awesome top and sewn so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is super cute! I like how the plaid looks like a pink color from far away and the fit is superb! Enjoy wearing this to work on Wednesday. I'll bet you'll get lots of compliments!
ReplyDeleteYou look so hip. I love the pink plaid on you, and the jeans turned up like that :D
ReplyDeleteGo Diva!
You look like a Diva! Very nice! The whole outfit suits you and well put together!
ReplyDeleteI'll take the top and the bag please!
ReplyDeleteAdorable!! That plaid is perfect and too cute on you!
ReplyDeleteGreat top and the whole ensemble looks so casually Diva.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is a winner. You have taken the jeans and plaid look and totally raised the game - pretty in pink and oozing cool elegance!
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is wonderful! Pink is such a great color on you and I love that purse!
ReplyDeleteHello! I just found your blog. What a great shirt, the fit is *perfect* and the colour suits you too.
ReplyDeleteYour earlier post with the pickled jalapenos got me really excited. I thought it was okra, lol. My mom used to pickle okra. I live in the UK now and, of course, don't see much okra of any kind.
I love, love, love your outfit. I'm not much on plaid but this looks lovely on you and is making me reconsider it. I like that you accessorize yourself as well...nicely put together! A+++
ReplyDeleteLove it, pretty in pink.
ReplyDeleteThat's the chicest plaid I've ever seen! *LOL*
ReplyDeleteTotally cute top! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the pink plaid. I'm going to have to look that pattern up. The sleeve and tie belt are great. Looks fabulous!
ReplyDeletePlaid and pink look good together and you are rocking them♥ Great job on all counts♥
ReplyDeleteYou are pretty in anything, and this plaid is great on you! I need to have you come to help me draft some patterns for me. I don't sew for myself because I'm terrified of not being able to fit myself. Little kids are easy!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit! Wow--a purse to match every outfit? Amazing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love it. Now I need to get my hands on that pattern! Can you post more about your wide back alteration? I suspect I need that. I have trouble with patterns and RTW pulling at about shoulderblade level.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Great fit, great style on you. Perfect!
ReplyDeleteLove this!!! You look fantastic!
