Activewear: Greenstyle Creations Tie back tank and Simplicity 8424

The other day I saw myself walking into the gym and realized that I was dressed like an elementary school student. I was wearing pink polka-dotted shorts, a t-shirt from elementary school (no lie), and an obnoxious blue UNC headband. The great thing about this look is that no one bothers you while working out, but I decided to put a little more effort into my workout wardrobe. Enter the Tie Back Tank by Greenstyle Creations and a second version of the Simplicity 84244 leggings .

Evie La Luve Chloe

I love trying new underwear patterns. They’re a low commitment in terms of time and cost, and turn into my most worn makes. I’ve tried a ton (7 off the top of my head) of underwear patterns over the past couple of years, but I jumped on the chance to test out another one.

Work Wear: Style Arc Kellie Dress

This year I’m focusing on building my work wardrobe. I constantly reach for my knit dresses — especially on Monday mornings — so I thought I should add a few more to my closet.

Fig + Needle Faron

Ping from Peneloping was one of the first sewing bloggers that really inspired me with her creativity. Every year she enters a mystery fabric sewing contest and creates something magical. Here are her entries for 2018 and 2017. So, when she announced that she was co-starting a new pattern line, I signed up to be a pattern tester. This is the Faron Jumper by Fig + Needle.

Matching Set: Madalynne Barrett Bralette and Cloth Habit Watson

Two lingerie posts in a row? I think that’s a first for me. I did warn you about that bra-making bug, though… Today I’m showing off another pattern mixing set made up of the Madalynne Barrett Bralette and the Cloth Habit Watson.
