I haven’t felt very inspired of late in terms of outfit posts, and I don’t know why but that’s just the way it’s been. Until today when I knew the only way out of a creative funk was to just get on with things.
If you follow me on Instagram you will know that I picked up the fabric for this skirt at Savers. When I say ‘fabric’ I mean it was actually a tablecloth that I spied for all of $5.99.
A couple of years back I did a tutorial series on how to make a circle skirt ( see part one and part two) and used that basic idea here. No pattern needed as it was already in the shape of a circle.
It’s really effective if you are a Bowerbird and like to find bits of fabric that might be really special but just need to be made into a garment.
In order to get creative and work my way out of my inspiration block, I thought I would start with this skirt and build and outfit around it. So far, so good!
