1. Everyone looks better in a skirt.
2. Skirts can be very casual, semi-casual, business casual, semi-dressy or very dressy.
3. Skirts can be worn with a variety of shoes, my favorite being the flip flop or wedge sandal.
4. Skirts can be worn anywhere. I've even gone putt-putt in a skirt and wedge sandals. It's perfectly acceptable.
5. Skirts are way more comfortable than shorts and more airy.
I don't mind a pair of shorts every once in awhile, but I just find that I prefer skirts more. And because they are so super easy to make and fabric is so cheap, you can make a variety to last all summer for the price of one department store skirt.
Here's how to do it!
Start by getting out your favorite skirt. Simple is best for this tutorial.
In case I have not told you before Amy, I am so blown away by your cute easy sewing projects! I cannot wait to try this skirt - I agree with all of your reasons why skirts are better :)
ReplyDeleteI am about to make a skirt with a zipper tomorrow, so I needed this!!
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH! I have been sewing for years and NEVER saw a zipper sewn into place like this. What a GREAT idea..and I will try it next time! Thanks so much- xo Diana
ReplyDeleteYes! I totally agree with you. I am so not a short person, I love skirts! There is something to it that just reminds me of summer and happiness. Thanks for the great tutorial. It looks so easy. I will have to try it! :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! I learned to sew with patterns,interfacing, stay-stitching-the whole nine yards. This way probably works just as well and I might actually get a project done and wear it in the same season! Going to give it a try,
ReplyDeleteI love this easy skirt. Would you post a tutorial on how to add shorts under it? I know it goes against all your reasons to wear a skirt instead of shorts, but I work at a daycare and am constanly on the floor and would feel better with some sewn in shorts :) I've always done my zipper this way and never understood why a fancy pattern would suggest any differnt!
ReplyDeleteThis is great!!! The fabric is very original!!! I would totally wear this skirt!
