A Relaxed Look

I’ve had a two-piece fine knit pantsuit for about a month, I thrifted it on an impromptu shopping spree with my husband. Always one to keep a running list of colors and fabric textures in my ever present journal, the extra-large beige knit pantsuit was an okay buy.  Later I acquired a soft beige and green short sleeved man’s shirt (extra large) that matched quite nicely. Second generation styling is this lovely easy dress, that’s just my style.

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."                      Psalm 139:14

"Tweeking" is a good thing.

By repostitioning the collar detail on this top, it went from something nice hanging in the closet to a great buy and a wardrobe staple. I’ve got six to change, so here’s a before look of the style.

As I've said before some of the best clothing you need is already in your closet, so make friends with a professional tailor or seamstress and let them work their skills to make you look good and save you money.
