Me made May - week 2 round-up

Running a little late with this update as I have been away with work for a few days, but I'm back now, so here it is.  Apart from one chilly, wet day (12th), the weather was reasonable for week 2, so it was mostly me-made dresses for this week.

Day 8 - Today I wore my pink birds dress and an rtw cardigan.

Day 9 - Another bird print dress today, this is from a vintage pattern and fabric I bought in Ikea several years ago, plus an rtw cardigan.

Day 10 - Today I wore what is still one of my favourite me-mades, my lime roses Elisalex and an rtw cardigan.

Day 11 - Today I wore my red daisy Emery dress and an  rtw cardigan

Day 12 - There was a definite nip in the air today, so I wore my most recent knitted finish which I have yet to blog about (I'll link to it once I've written about it).  This is a lightweight wool top which I started last autumn and then put to one side for the winter.  It's from a vintage pattern and I'm so pleased with how it turned out.  The skirt is an rtw from Lindy Bop.

Day 13 - Today I wore my Anna La Paloma dress which I made during Me-Made-May 2016.  I love this print, it's very Josef Frank inspired I think.  I paired it with a cardigan I knitted last year from a vintage pattern with Malabrigo sock yarn.  I'm knitting with this at the moment and I love it - it is so soft.

Day 14 - This is another of my 'Top Ten' dresses (I haven't actually got a top ten, but if I did, this would be one of them - the other one in this post would be the lime roses Elisalex).  It's the Happy Homemaker dress and an rtw cardigan.

And that's it for week 2!
