DIY Simple Lace Skirt

DIY Simple Maxi Skirt with Elastic Waistband

Happy Tuesday!  Oh how I love a maxi skirt!  I made this beauty last year.  I have worn this casual and dressy.  Today I was feeling a more casual look, so I threw on a V-neck tee and some cute sandals I purchased last year from Macy's.  This skirt is so simple to put together.  It takes no time.  All it takes is sewing the sides together and adding an elastic waistband, and you're done!

DIY Linen Maxi Skirt with Pockets and Sash

I am a sucker for a cute maxi skirt.  I made this skirt when I first started sewing and it's been in my wardrobe rotation ever since.  I love this fabric.  It's a linen fabric with a little stretch that I purchased from Joann's a few years ago.  If you're looking for something that you can dress up or down and be comfortable, a maxi skirt is a definite option. 

DIY Harem Pants with Pocket and Sash

 I love my floral!!! I am at it once again with my brightly colored floral printed fabric.  I found this beauty at Joann's Fabric.  Luck for me, it was the last two yards on the bolt.  This fabric feels so amazing.  It's a rayon blend with a four-way stretch, which makes comfortable to wear.  The drape on it makes it perfect for a pair of Harem Pants. 

This DIY was so simple and easy and did not require a pattern.  You simple measure your waist and ankle, do a little math and draft on fabric, or paper if you want a pattern for later use.  

Oldie but Goodie Colored Blocked Skirt with Pockets

It's hump day and I'm feeling blue! I made this skirt last year after being inspired by Sweet Verbena's colored blocked dress.  It took a little time and measuring, but it turned out pretty good!

DIY Circle Skirt Tutorial + Birthday Celebration

Yesterday I celebrated 28 years of life, YAY!!!  This year I wanted to keep it simple and do a date with just my hubby, so we celebrated with dinner at Luck 32 and a photo session afterwards! Their outdoor dinning is so serene and naturally decorated with greenery that I had to take advantage  and get pictures of my circle skirt I put together.

DIY McCall's Pattern 6556

This McCall's pattern was the first pattern I began sewing with.  I saw EASY in the description and decided to go for it.  Now, I was a true beginner, so it wasn't as easy as I had imagined.  It took me a couple of days, but I completed it and it looked amazing!!
