Fashion Friday

I actually forgot all about this today!  Fail on my part.  But I think I have a good reason for forgetting.  Yesterday, I submitted my resume to a company that designs and manufactures show choir and color guard uniforms.   They contacted me 20 minutes after I sent my resume.  This morning I had an interview and sewing test with the head designer, floor manager and another seamstress.  This company is a good distance from my house.  By the time I got home I had an email with my training schedule for the next week.  So, I got myself a new job today and I am so excited about it!  I will be making more money than I am currently plus I will be doing what I love, sewing!  Oh and not that I have to mention it, but I get to let my inner band geek out and it will be totally accepted!  I will let you know more about my new job once I start training next week.  My postings may become pretty scarce for a bit while I get accustomed to this new drive.  It used to take me 7 minutes to get to work, now it will take between 45-50.

 On with the show,  Taylor Swift is wearing a D&G floral print dress.  I think it suits her well.  It is young and flirty.

 For the pattern I picked Butterick 5486.  I would pick version B which, in the picture above, is the knee length pink dress with tie at the waist.  I think this would work well, especially if you make that tie in a satiny white like Taylor's dress.

I am in love with this fabric.  It is on Fabric.com for $8.98 a yard.  It is designed by the fan-tab-ulous Anna Marie Horner and called LouLou Thi Summer Totem Strudel.

Now, where to find that shade of red lipstick?
