blue & dress

I confess I've been watching Father Brown series religiously, and enjoying not only the plot and characters but also the atmosphere and clothes. So, I think I've been inspired by it when picking some lady-like accessories to match my dress this morning!. I'm wearing for the first time my self-sewed dress, which it was a really difficult piece for my lack of talent as a seamstress. But I finally can wear it, even if it's far away from perfection!. It was great, but I think I'm going to stick to my usual easy patterns for a while, thanks!

Confieso que he estado enganchada a la serie del Padre Brown de la BBC(Father Brown BBC), y que sigo religiosamente no sólo la trama y los personajes, sino también la ambientación y el vestuario de principios de los cincuenta. Así que creo que es lo que me estaba inspirando esta mañana cuando elegí accesorios tan de señora, para combinar con el vestido. Porque ¡estoy estrenando vestido!, y además lo he cosido yo misma, y ha sido difícil para mi poco talento de modista. Pero al final, lo conseguí, aunque está lejos de quedar perfecto. Genial, pero creo que voy a quedarme con mis habituales patrones fáciles por una temporada, porque he acabado hartita!



- bolero, Los Telares (old)
- bag, Zara (very old) / bolso, antigüito
- sandals, Wonders (old) / sandalias
- necklace, artisan flea market / collar, de mercadillo artesano

  3. I can't believe you sewed that yourself! Brava! I've always wanted to learn to sew but I just have no talent. The only thing I can sew on is a button.
