The everyday skirt! How much do I love that? It’s exactly like the jcrew boardwalk skirt, which I did wear nearly every day this summer. So, a yummy wool version for every day of the winter? Yes, please! I think the pink version of the cape on the cover won me round to its potential. Since my son started kindergartens. Few years ago, and we don’t live near any decent schools, I’ve become less of the urbanite-walking person and more of a driver. I find that on cold-ish days, I don’t need an actual coat to run around in the car. In fact, coats get a little in the way when you’re driving, so this would really be useful for me.
I hear your concerns about the looser styles. I love them on the model,but I’m tall, broad shouldered and full busted, so if I don’t have some kind of shape in my clothes, I look like a sack. However, the one blouse in a very liquids fabric tucked in as they show it could still be very nice. And the lowly blouses are everywhere right now. As long as there’s some skinny somewhere to balance it. Maybe. But on someone a little more petite, or less narrow I think it’s just the thing. And they would cover the mommy tummy too.
After all not every thing can suit every body out there. We are all so different. I look forward to Liesl’s instructions up hampered by Simplicity’s way of doing things. I hope this endeavor works out!
