Ever since making my first White Russian I have been wanting to make a white one. For no reason except I liked the concept of a white White Russian!
Having made it, I wasn’t certain that I liked it. It was rather… white!
Excuse the pose here, I was watching some parrots go mad in the tree.
I love winter white, but I feel like a snowman in this, and my floor looked as though it had been snowing when I was making it. Anyway, I definitely prefer the back view!
This is day 5 of One Week One Pattern and given that I pledged two patterns, here is the White Russian from Capital Chic Patterns teamed with my black skirt – Vogue 1247 Yes, I look ridiculous trying to fit my hands in the pockets, but I can sometimes get them in if I haven’t eaten too much cake!
The details: White Russian from Capital Chic Patterns made from some bobbly fabric I bought at Fabulous Fabrics, and Vogue 1247 in black cotton from Tessuti Fabrics. Shoes are Arche and the necklace was brought back from Murano by Tom and Bridgette.
Get out your lovely scraves and jewellery and break up the white, you will be much happier with it then. Love the bobbles in the fabric!
Yes, my husband suggested a scarf and I will do this next time I wear it. Thanks for the comment!
Oooh, I love the texture in the fabric! Lovely outfit.
Thanks Patricia, I’m warming to it 🙂
