Thou Shalt Not Covet

Oh but I am! Two skirts on the Anthro website...


I have never bought anything from this store, not because I have never found anything, I just can't justify spending $78-88 on one article of clothing! So I got an idea...make it myself!!! I text my cousin Kary, who is very crafty, to see if she would help me out. I am more than excited. Hopefully it turns out amazing!! Also, I want to go to the DI on my way home and see if I can pick up anything that could use a little altering and turned into a masterpiece haha. There are a couple benefits to making your own clothes...first, no one else has it; second, no sizes; and third, it costs a lot less (and you can use scraps on something else)! I have already told Josh I want a sewing machine for my birthday. I don't need anything fancy shmancy, just something to get the job done without me hand stitching it :) Keep posted to see how everything turns out!

  1. I love the yellow skirt! I need to get fabric to put my sewing machine to good use. skirts should be easy enough to make right?

  2. I really like the orange skirt! I got a sewing machine for Christmas! I love it! Fabric is expensive, but I never thought about getting stuff at DI and altering it...hmmm. Good idea!

  3. The top skirt is mustard yellow, isn't the one under it orange? It looks orange on my monitor...
