At the same time I'd rather have people not paying too much attention to it. <br /><br />I'd never wear the maxi. The fabric seems like a sort of stiff quilting cotton, it wasn't really comfortable. There could be enough for a little jacket and I like the idea, but the chances of me wearing this as a suit are even slimmer :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12481065265121629150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-88784297144935363532012-08-10T19:12:48.711+02:002012-08-10T19:12:48.711+02:00Really sweet!

That being said, for me and my casual lifestyle, I would probably have gotten more wear out of the maxi version. I can't speak for yours, of course.<br /><br />Is there enough fabric left to make a little jacket (maybe with short sleeves) or vest to match? That would be adorable. Although probably even more needlessly businessladylike. Which is my new favourite word. It's adorable. :)Tanit-Isishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15824217102632813598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-57030222160125951342012-08-10T09:56:32.002+02:002012-08-10T09:56:32.002+02:00It sure is tight :) We'll see how tight when I...It sure is tight :) We'll see how tight when I wear it out this weekend!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12481065265121629150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-17551721292279613032012-08-10T09:55:45.726+02:002012-08-10T09:55:45.726+02:00Thanks for the confirmation!Thanks for the confirmation!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12481065265121629150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7813212817291263893.post-10496761446110053062012-08-10T09:54:49.858+02:002012-08-10T09:54:49.858+02:00Thanks!
