An Easy Breezy Skirt

Posted by on Jan 7, 2009 in Blog

There are two little New York fashionistas that have very strong opinions about what they will wear. At ages 4 and 3, these sisters know what they like and know what they don’t. Luckily I passed the first test when I made them these dresses, which are now referred to as the “Made Dress” as in the dresses were made for them. I know! So stinkin’ cute.

Of course, I crave their approval so I spent the past couple of months collecting swatches for them but couldn’t find any winners. I went out on a limb and picked up this print since it had the requisite pinks, purples and oranges without prior approval. Yup – I am a risk taker. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

The pattern is a free download from the Oliver + S website. It is super simple and the ribbon trim is a great little touch. I added a small pocket on the front and embellished it with a little pink fish button. I used similar buttons on the dresses and I heard that they were a big hit.
