Week 3 for Season 6 of Project Run & Play is Boys Week!
Sewing boys' stuff is so much fun! All I knew for 3 and a half years was sewing for the little guy. It doesn't have to be boring just because you can't add a ruffle to it! Vincent's look this week is inspired by a certain well-dressed boy band that I do NOT listen to but I like their style... combined with a classic punk look and with a big nod to a Batman villain. Vincent's clothes are always trendy but with an edge. He won't wear them if they are not comfortable, and if they don't have a superhero or a Star Wars element to them. His jacket is based on the Basic Blazer by Melly Sews and is made from classic black drill. I drafted a new collar from scratch, turning it into a shawl collar. The blazer is lined with a green tartan brushed cotton and I added two welt pockets on the insides. If you head to my blog you'll get to see the surprise pocket lining. These pockets were added for him to put his lego mini figures {Specifically Jango Fett} in when he goes out so he doesn't lose them. Underneath he wears a plain white v-necked tee with sleeves that go to just above his elbow. The patch pocket is pleather, and was made to look like it's dripping or melting.
The pants are dual coloured, one leg black drill and the other green tartan brushed cotton. They have brass zippers at the ankles and surprise pocket lining as well. I used the Skinny Jeans pattern by Peek-a-boo Pattern Shop, but since I never seem to use stretch fabric with these, I added more room on the sides while adjusting the pattern. The bowtie is made from black and green Perler beads and is glued to a brooch back so he can pin it anywhere he chooses {the kid is a serial accessoriser}.

spent the morning with my two favorite flickr friends. They always make hanging out fun. I almost forgot that normal people don't walk around the D in a tux, in the middle of woodward, in traffic, or with a gas mask. It seemed completely normal and reasonable to me ;)
anyway.... Dr Mike looking super dapper and handsome in his tux. He flew in on his plane and then drove over in his convertible and then jet skied across the river.... j/k. he is the kindest, most giving person ever. and that's what I like about him. thanks guys for letting me tag along!
Tried to get a candid shot of this well dressed couple, but this guy was too fast for me and gave me a wave/nod in passing.
Day one of seriously getting out on the streets and overcoming the fear of taking shots of people. It was exhilarating. The only time I got yelled at was when I was taking a shot of a backpack up against a tree. No one in sight. Then here comes a girl out of nowhere yelling "hey what are you doing taking a picture of my stuff." Note to self: stick to people and not stuff.
Exciting announcements coming out of Lindy Focus today. It reminded me of this
#dapperlady I found roaming the sidelines at the Chick Webb night at this past Lindy Focus.
