The mixing of prints continues this week! Stripes and polka dots. I love 'em both.
This sweet little sweater (from Target) has a bit of blue in it, and so does this skirt. So why not pair them?
This skirt is a home-made bubble skirt. It's easy - here's how:
The skirt (originally from Shimamura) was really too long for me, so I cut it just below the knee, then basted some 1/2" elastic to the inside of the cut edge. Stretch the elastic as you go so when you tie it off at the end, it will pull the fabric in. It still hung too low, so I tacked it to the cut edge of the lining inside, every 4-6 inches. Viola! Le Bubble!
