BurdaStyle Top Picks :: Week of 3/8-3/14
Happy Monday everyone!
I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend. Mine was fairly productive. I sewed up a new pillowcase for my body pillow. The previous one I’d had for several years and was looking pretty sad, so I took one of my thrift store sheets and sewed one up. Pretty simple, so I won’t be sharing it here, but I do have a post prepared about making a new lampshade for one of our living room lights! I used linen… of course!
BurdaStyle top picks are numerous today! Lots of goodies last week :)

These are garments that I particularly like and would love to wear myself. I usually just “favorite” them on BurdaStyle, but I’ve decided to make it a regular thing to feature them on my blog so I could share the inspiration and applaud the talent of the people who made them!

Beautiful color!

I really like how this top fits with the cowl neckline and the tight band around the hips. Great drape!

Do the Yellow Petal Shuffe!!!
by littlewren
This is actually a dress, but I wanted to use the picture that had a detail shot of that fantastic bodice. She copied a dress she liked but was too expensive and drafted her own version. (Btw, that beautiful flower field she’s standing in is in China!)
