Well that was easy

Finished the turque! I do really need a big fluffy fichu though, if only for sun protection!

And it looks a little wimpy on Mabel and sans petticoats, but since I'm wearing it this weekend I didn't feel the need to put it all on! And I promise not to tie my chemise gown with a nasty polyester ribbon when I actually wear it...

My striped shoes that I recovered to go with the chemise gown are not in great shape so I may have to wear something else...must ponder this.


Also it looks better when worn with arms I think. :D

I even made sure to get a shot of the wacked-out tuck on the left shoulder strap. Hey, it works!

Ooh, I love it. The colors are so light and dreamy. :)

Thank you! It was very much inspired by all those Petit Trianon scenes in Marie Antoinette...lightweight floaty dresses for those languid hot summer days.

Well...it's going to be hot enough on Sunday!

Thank you! :) Here's hoping I don't die in the 90-degree-95%-humidity on Sunday in all my layers...

It's so charming and pretty!

I hope to someday utter those words... "well, that was easy."

Thank you!

Well, if you put aside a dress that only needs two seams sewn and don't go back to it for two years...you might just! xD
