Me-Made-May'15 - Week 3

This week marked the halfway point for Me-Made-May and boy, am sure I glad to be on the downward slide of this challenge. The concept of wearing something me-made everyday is not that much of a challenge for me compared to taking photo evidence every day and trying to figure out new ways of wearing my me-mades without wearing the same outfit twice. The challenge has been made harder by the fact that I literally have no me-made pants or skirts that fit me at the moment! Theres only so many shirts that can be paired with a RTW mustard coloured mini skirt... Also I'm feeling a little less excited for this challenge now that I've worn almost all of my favorite clothes already and have another 15 long days of trying to be inventive with what remains of my me-made wardrobe.
Heres my round-up for Week 3:

Day 10 - By Hand London Georgia Dress and Schnittchen Coco Jacket

Day 11 - Sewaholic Davie Dress

Day 12 - By Hand London Elisalex Dress

Day 13- Vogue 8511

Day 14 - Papercut Patterns Ensis Tee and RTW Cue linen skirt

Day 15 - Colette Macaron Dress (photo taken a couple of months ago with my two gorgeous sisters in their bridesmaid Macaron dresses)

Day 16 - Papercut Patterns Undercover Sweatshirt and RTW black jeans

Me-Made-May'15 Week 2

Two weeks down, three weeks to go of Me-Made-May'15! This week has been relatively easy thanks to a combination of beautiful weather and a relatively full closet of me-mades. Nothing much to say here other than to say I am in desperate need of some Me-Made skirts and pants as the ones I do have no longer fit me.

I've also thoroughly enjoyed seeing everyone elses Me-Made-May'15 outfits via Instagram! I've 'met' so many inspirational, tallented sewers and its always interesting to see how different people interpret different patterns.

Here's my roundup of Week 2:

Day 3 - By Hand London Anna Dress

Day 4 - Sewaholic Renfrew Shirt with RTW jeans

Day 5 - Sewaholic Davie Dress

Day 6 - Schnittchen Patterns Coco Jacket with RTW black dress

Day 7 - Deer and Doe Belladone Dress and Papercut Patterns Bellatrix Blazer

Day 7 - Back detail of my Deer and Doe Belladone Dress

Day 8 - Named Patterns Kanerva Blouse and thrifted RTW Cue linen skirt

Day 9 - Papercut Patterns Undercover Sweater, Sewaholic Thurlow Shorts and (not pictured) Sewaholic Renfrew t'shirt

Me-Made-May'15 Week 1

This years Me-Made-May caught me a little off guard, I wasn't expecting it to sneak up so suddenly! Admittedly, there's not a lot of prep work to be done other than remembering to wear a me-made piece of clothing everyday... and, of course, remembering to take an outfit photo EVERY SINGLE DAY! :-)

Considering I mostly wear clothing I've made, I've decided to push myself as I noticed as of late that I tend to wear only a small portion of my handmade wardrobe so I've decided to try for no repeat outfits for the entire month of May! Here's my pledge for this year:

'I, Miranda of She's Sew Chic, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May '15. I endeavour to wear at least one piece of handmade clothing with no repeat outfits each day for the duration of May 2015'
I'll be posting my MMMay15 outfits on Instagram @shes_sew_chic and doing a weekly round-up here on my blog.

Here's my outfits for week 1:

Day 1 - Colette Laurel Dress

Day 2 - Butterick B5526 button up shirt with RTW black jeans
