Wearing V8805

I had a moment yesterday evening to take a few photo shots of me wearing V8805.
Front view
As you can see this is a pretty straight, unfitted look.  I took in the waist line area close to 1 3/4 inches.  Because of the close fitting neck line and deeper seams taken it can be a little difficult to get on and off.  One of the reviewers at PR stated they had scooped out the neckline a little more as they felt it was too high and tight.

This is my hands on hip look


Just could not put my shoes back on
And of course you have to see the back and side views.  I really do like this color combo.

















I have to go to our agency's annual fund raiser tonight.  It is a fashion show and I plan to change into this for the event tonight.

    1. Thanks, Linda. The shorter hair style is much cooler for this extremely hot summer we have been having here in VA.

    1. I find I can do this easier if I sew all the front pieces first and then the back pieces together; then attach at the side seam
