[my closet needs a…]

Uncategorized

I receive random updates from net-a-porter when my favorite designers (Alice Temperley and Botegga Veneta) have something new in their store (you know, so on the off chance I have $2500 to throw down on a dress I know what’s available). This marigold skirt recently found it’s way into my inbox and I couldn’t get it out of my head. As great as it is, I don’t have $750 for such a luxury, so I got to thinking about how I could sew one. My friend Christy recently made this darling skirt from a free Burda pattern found online so the wheels in my head started turning. I did some searching on the Burda Style site and found this killer skirt pattern (shown in the same fabulous marigold color). I must make it. My closet needs it.

  1. Oooooh, I totally almost bought heels that would match these perfectly yesterday. Now you need to search for the perfect pair of pumps for the outfit! -e

  2. i too am loving the yellow-gold hue lately. i love that skirt pattern. you should go for it! i have looked at the burda style patterns before but haven’t ever attempted anything yet. I have fears that they would be difficult to follow, like your friends experience. although her skirt looks amazing!
