Here is a round up of what I’m planning to make this Spring. I’m all about good basics, like converse sneakers and structured blazers. I can’t get enough of white and white too. Maybe because I make wedding dresses, white and other white-ish colors like ivory and ecru feel special to me. What are you planning on wearing/making this Spring?
1. White sneakers: Converse leather sneakers (I also like this Superga ones)
2. Off shoulder cropped top (source): This Free People one is nice since it has straps. This delicate lace one is so cute paired with distressed jeans or cut-offs. Maybe use this Simplicity 5962?
3.Classic black leather band watch: Daniel Wellington (also love this rose gold one)
4. Culottes: White culottes. I shorten these wide legged pants I made back in 2013 to made them into midi length culottes. The hems got too dirty by bike riding so it was a good way to refashion them! If you were to buy one, these alice + olivia ones are chic, or make them yourself using Megan Nielson Tania Culottes patterns!)
5. White blazer (source): I just finished making mine using Butterick 4610 (previously made twice here and here) with white cotton. Love the length of this LAVEER blazer (hits the mid butt!) and the collar of this Rebecca Minkoff one.
P.S. Shopbop is having April’s Friends & Family Event (25% off)! Details here.
