Blouse or a dress?…….

BLOUSE OR DRESS1


Been a bit undecided about this pretty little blouse since I made it last year, as it’s truly adorable, but I felt I should have made it a little longer, as the sleeve edge is actually longer than the blouse itself, and this is what put me off!


This is the original…….


ENGENE BLOUSE 1


It looks so pretty here, but in truth, I was never happy about how it looked on me! Sad smile


ENGENE BLOUSE 4

Love the details……..


BLOUSE OR DRESS2


I decided to add an extra layer to the bottom and as I had enough matching lace from the sleeves, I think it’s worked out well. Thing is, it hasn’t been washed yet, so the bottom edge is not ‘blending’ into the creases the same as the top, but it will do!


BLOUSE OR DRESS


So what do you think – does it work? Guess the proof will be when it’s washed and ironed, but it looked okay just now!


Let me know what you think, does it look good as a dress, or do you prefer it as a blouse?


Thanks for dropping by, ha en god helg!

Stor kram!

  3. Have you tried it out since it's been washed? The long version just has that little something extra about it - apart from the length that is!! Love it. xx
