Today’s handmade outfit was unabashedly inspired by this photo from Charlie. After seeing it on Instagram, I just couldn’t get it out of my head. I wanted to wear that outfit everyday and my wardrobe did not supply the garments. So with some fabric, thread and a little bit of sweat, I now have my very own camisole + wide legged pant outfit.
Today I have a great summer basic to share with you, a tank top sewn up in a super soft ikat print cotton. I finished this one up a few weeks ago so you might have seen it over on Instagram. The pattern is the Ella Top by Liola Designs. I made this pattern once before, back in 2015, and have been meaning to make it again. I love that it's an easy to wear tank shape but has a back yoke and center back pleat.
Today is going to be a short post because I already posted about this pattern a couple months ago but I couldn't resist sharing this make because it quickly became one of my favorite wardrobe workhorses. I wear a cardigan almost everyday and the Blackwood Cardigan by Helen's Closet fits my cardigan needs perfectly.
