8 Summer ready to wear looks to recreate in your sewing room
Today I wanted to do another video where I pair current street style or RTW looks with patterns, but I wanted to do it a bit differently. I love pairing inspiration pictures with patterns, but really wanted to focus on actually getting some of these made up! I really went window shopping this time picking items I would have loved to actually buy, but instead, I’m going to make them!
