In a polka dot though... (Although I think I may have run into a snag and run out of fabric. *sigh*) Love the Dior version Dita wore--and it makes me want to dig out all the sailor hat castoffs I've snagged from my husband over the years. hehe!Caseyhttp://elegantmusings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-58108765970105475872011-05-31T12:15:10.551-04:002011-05-31T12:15:10.551-04:00I just got that pattern!

I just LOVE those blue pants. So far I've collected a couple of pattern options but I'm definitely still looking for one that's more like the Dior look there.<br /><br />Dita can wear anything and look good, IMO, but I think for my own outfitting I'd go a bit less literal and skip the hat. Unless I was attending a marine event, but since I'm landlocked in Phoenix, that seems unlikely!Katrina Blanchallehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03300264690284771712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259455441759015869.post-88065581511770042742011-05-30T17:23:23.615-04:002011-05-30T17:23:23.615-04:00thanks for this post!
