This is the tartan dress I mentioned - made from exactly the same pattern as the floral dress, but with a fuller skirt section. It's the perfect winter dress!
I styled it up with a patent leather belt and a vintage velvet jacket. Needless to say, I was a just a bit cold when I took these photos...

The dress turned out beautifully. I love the plaid and cut.
It's snowed a few times and we're finally starting accumulate some inches!

Cute!
Yeah we have snow here in holland!
Such a cute outfit!
We had a blizzard over the weekend! I hate snow, though.
Happy Holidays!
You look great! We have a lot of snow at the moment. We might have a white christmas! (last time there was a white christmas in the netherlands was in 1982.. :/ )
You look lovely! I love the dress you've made. :)
Yeh, we had loads of snow on saturday, lets hope it stays for friday!

what a wonderful outfit!
we have a lot of snow here in (the middle of) germany. :) i should take some pictures i guess.
Ah tartan has somewhat of a christmassy feel to it! It's lovely :) I really like your velvet blazer too.
aaand yes! It's snowing like crazy where I live, this is our third day now of heavy snow fall and I'm still as excited-as-a-small-child by it! xxx
That dress is so lovely; I'm always impressed by all the dresses that you make! You look so cute and happy in the snow :)
No snow where I live as it's Northern California and we just don't get any. It's been slightly warm actually and I've been wanting it to get colder!
Ooooooh, that is the perfect winter dress!
I also live in NorCal (like the above commenter) so definitely no snow here. Yours looks so pretty!
you look so lovely!
i live in california..... so no snow here. sniff, sniff :(
I think you look nice too :)
I think that the black really contrasts with the white snow, I hope it is a white Christmas here in England :) But the snow slowly turns to ice n makes u fall :(
we have snow in Germany, I think we should all have a white christmas :)
love your dress!
We got about 3 inches in Blackpool!
I was so excited and I made a lady snow-woman and half an igloo. I hope we have enouh snow to finish it tomorrow...I love snow :-)
That dress looks fantastic on you, you're so clever being able to make clothes xx
Oh my, we have tons of snow here. Want to change country?
Cute dress!
I love love love this outfit... the dress is awesome.. and i love the jacket and shoes too....
We've FIIIINALLY got some snow that's actually settled here in Salisbury yaaaay :)
Love the color and texture combination with the gorgeous plaid, and your hair looks so lovely! We've had a slight unusual dusting of flakes and some very warm spots in between.
Enjoy yours!

wow! you constantly amaze me with your dressmaking skills. really.
and it looks like you live in such a lovely place! there is so much snow where i live, and treacherous ice everywhere... obviously i don't wear any sensible clothing at all (heh!) so i'm constantly shivering/slipping/narrowly avoiding death!
Awwh your outfit is always so pretty and sweet :) Omg yaaay for snow, i went to London earlier this year and it was my first time seeing snow, it felt amazing!! Back home we dont get any snow, although there was hailstone after like 10 years, which is almost like a miracle since i live in the middle east.
sweet photos^^

Beauuuuuuuuuuuutiful outfit!

Here in the north os Spain has also been snowing, but now rain has came again.
Merry Xmas :D
It snowed here, too! There's nothing better than snow around Christmas!
aww love the dress, tartan print is always christmasy! It snowed for a couple of hours yesterday here in middlesex. Really slippery outside today!

i love that dress <3
i wish i could sew like you!
you are very beautiful, as usual !
Oh what a perfect dress! I love the sleeves and the colour and the length and well, every thing about it :) Very cute in that floral fabric too.
And the snow... There's lots of it here (I live in Sweden) so I have to wear several layers of tights and stockings when I go outside, and I avoid taking any photos of my outfits outside in the street ^.^
I love the fuller skirt on your dress, what a perfect addition to your original design!
Christmas is always better with snow, even if it's just a light snowfall!
Never snows in my town. As much a day very little. Almost does not cover!
By the way, Merry Christmas!
classic look! happy holidays, enjoy the snow :)
love these photos :)
