Outfit of the day, handmade clothing all the way!

As I study fashion (even though now its fashion comms but it was design) I thought i'd put my trade to good use. I've been looking into buying some flares in velvet but people were selling for £30 and at the moment I just couldn't afford it. A jobless fashion shopping addicted student is not the best thing to be when you have more time on your hands than a watch. An impulse buy at my local haberdashery shop (BOYES) of 3M of dark purple crushed velvet fabric sparked up my brain as to creating my OWN flares!

After tracing my other flares to make a quick pattern I was on my way! How astounded was I when they came out as good as they did is unreal. (in my opinion nothing I do comes out as good as I thought) 

With the amount of time I have on my hands at the moment as well I decided to make two matching tops..TWO! 

I made both a point up halter-neck tie back and a elasticated boob-tube (both beginner garments I know but simple but effective is the way forward) 

I am thinking of making these sets for sale and selling them on my DEPOP account (USERNAME: annahodgson) I am just trying to perfect the pattern. 

I am very happy with my garment creations today I will be making more soon and putting them on my blog too! 

Thanks for reading dolls!
