We’re nearing the end of May and I haven’t been doing a good job keeping up with Me Made May! Have you? Here are a few recent outfits. Now that the weather is (finally) warming up I’ve started digging out some of my summer clothes and mixing them with my colder-weather pieces. Getting out the warm-weather styles is like seeing long-lost friends!<\/p>\n

And I’ve been sewing a few things too, which I’ll share soon.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, here’s some of what I’ve been wearing.<\/p>\n

1. Garibaldi Skirt<\/a> in satin, cut on bias with this tutorial<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. Belgravia Knit Dress<\/a>. This is a throw-on-and-go style, and also very comfortable.<\/p>\n

\"some<\/a><\/p>\n

3. Garibaldi bias Skirt<\/a> (again)<\/p>\n

4. Classic Shirt<\/a> lengthened to a shirt dress<\/a>. The way I styled this one makes me laugh because it reminds me of what my very chic grandma use to wear: shirt dress with the watch fob necklace that was her signature piece and and which I inherited from her.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. City Stroll Wrap Skirt<\/a> with Classic Shirt<\/a>.<\/p>\n

6. Lisboa Walking Shorts<\/a> with Classic Shirt<\/a>. The shorts are from this blog post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"some<\/a><\/p>\n

Lisboa Walking Shorts<\/a> with Recital Shirt<\/a>. These shorts are new, made in navy twill, and I think I’m going to wear them a LOT this year.<\/p>\n

Cannes Trousers<\/a>. My most-worn item this year, I think.<\/p>\n

\"some<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Just a few days to go! Have you found any treasures in your closet that you were happy to wear again?<\/p>\n
