What had happened was . . .

So if you follow me on instagram (kellyhpsyd), you know that I stayed up pretty late last night and finished my V1250 and even altered a blazer I have to wear with it.

So why then am I wearing this today?

 

Sweater: Avenue (old); Boots: DSW; Leggings: Forever 21+

Because along the way, I've learned a few things about myself.  Among other things, I am obsessive about pressing my garments both during the construction process and the final product and since I didn't have time to do a proper final press on my dress and the blazer, I decided to delay the outfit for another day.  I suppose I could cut myself some slack as I used to send all of my finished garments to the cleaners before I bought my good iron now I reserve the cleaners routine for formal dresses only.

I'm also pretty obsessive about clipping threads too but that's a story for another day.  These leggings are fab by the way, come in a few colors and are only $5.80 regularly, and I got mine on sale for $5.00!
