The sweatshirt is one of those pieces that you never you knew you always needed. Warm and roomy, it’s the height of comfort. I love to wear a sweatshirt dress over leggings. It’s the perfect weekend outfit. For this one, I used one of my own patterns, the Lou Box Dress 1. This dress is a cocoon-style oversized dress. I did a little mish-mash of the views and used the sleeves from View A and the patch pockets from View B.
The Ariane Bodysuit by Seamwork Magazine caught my eye as soon as it was released. I was never into bodysuits in the 90s but have come to really enjoy wearing them in the last few years (specifically my Nettie bodysuits). While many bodysuits look like a regular old tucked-in fitted shirt, the Ariane with its thin straps and defined cups has very strong lingerie vibes. Bodysuits are great for layering and for creating a really smooth tucked-in top to show off a fitted skirt or pants.
Hi friends! When I moved to Southern California, I really never thought that I’d be wearing, let alone making a turtleneck ever again. I had some favorite turtleneck tops that I love but every time I wore them I’d become incredibly over heated. But after moving to the west side of LA, I’ve been so cold. So, a long sleeve, high neck shirt was called for. Plus, I’ll be going to Copenhagen this spring and I plan to bring this as one of my layering pieces (see more about my travel wardrobe plan here).
