One of my favourite parts of my day is getting ready, and I put a lot of time and effort into my outfits, so I decided it would be nice to record them in the form of this blog. I also really enjoy photography and have been meaning to get back into it for a while, and I thought this might encourage me to dust off my camera and get snapping.
I thought for my first outfit on this blog I'd need something a little special, so I went for this - a dress I made myself! I love sewing and I brought my sewing machine up with me to uni, but again I very rarely make time for it. I love Tilly and the Buttons and I'm a huge fan of a lot of the stuff she makes, so I decided to buy one of her patterns - the Coco dress.
The fabric I found was a little bit thin for what I needed, but it was so pretty that I got it anyway, and it actually sewed pretty well. The pattern itself is really easy to make and comes with a step by step guide to help you, and there's also loads of advice on her blog. I really love this dress - it's simple but effective and so comfy to wear. I've read that a lot of people make theirs as a nightdress, and I'm tempted to give that a go.
