Well I successfully did MMMay. I wore at least one handmade item everyday. I did not blog or post much on
Instagram as I just didn't have time. Here are some of the things I did wear - just not recent photos.

MMMay has thrown up some issues with my wardrobe, namely being the type of clothes I have and what I wear. Work days were easy - I have lots of dresses. However it's more casual items that I seem to be lacking. I only wore one me made skirt and one pair of me made culottes. I do have plenty of skirts that I have acquired over the years, but I don't really have many shorts, trousers, jeans to wear. I wore lots of me made tops - mostly Sorbetto tops, I seem to wear these a lot in the warmer months. I also had a couple of pleat neck tanks from a Burda pattern - last summer's magazine.
So the outcome is that I need to make separates, things I can layer and summer wear as most of what I have is getting a bit tatty.
So on my to make list:-
cigarette pants
wide leg trousers/ culottes
Dungarees
shorts
Long and short sleeve t shirts
vest tops
blouses/ shirts
I might just have to take part in summer of basics!!!!
What did me made May throw up as gaps in your wardrobe ?
