2+2 Blouse and Skirt by oliver+S
Missy L loves blue AND she loves City Weekend by Liesl Gibson for Moda.
Put those together and voila!
 |
Blouse in CityWeekend trimmed with Modern Workshop
both by Liesl Gibson. |
 |
| Special Mother of Pearl button from the special Justine |
 |
| I omitted the ties and went with a loop. |
 |
| Turquoise M O P buttons |
 |
| More beautiful City Weekend |
 |
| More beautiful buttons |
 |
| 2+2 skirt&blouse |
For a twist on the
2+2 skirt I left the pleats out completely and
gathered where they would normally be.
 |
| Gathers instead of pleats |
 |
| I love this placket AND my Claire buttons |
 |
| The elastic back |
The result?
A wonderfully bouncy skirt for a wonderfully bouncy girl!

How perfect are those little flower buttons with that City Weekend print!! Very nice. Missy L is such a pretty thing!
ReplyDeletePerfect buttons for the blue 2+2. And I'm lazy enough as it is, so I'm going to pretend I didn't see that unpleated skirt, giving me another excuse for a short cut...
ReplyDeleteThey are perfect Susanne! Justine sent them especially for Missy L,she was so excited to use them!
ReplyDeleteThank you I think she is very pretty too!
Thanks Icicle,and as our favourite designer recently said ''This (the omitted pleats in this case)is an design choice''.
Thats my story and I am sticking to it!
(but 2 1/2 hours start to finish WITH hand sewing,got to love that 'design choice'
