Inspiration: Sorbetto Mods

I typed in 'Vintage Top' into Etsy.com and some really nice images came up. I am eagerly anticipating my pillowcases (in T-minus 1 hour) and I think these will be the inspiration for the future Sorbetto's. I just cannot stop making these tops!


Speaking of Tops Blouses, here's why I like them so much. You can never really have too many. It's easy to wear the same pair of jeans or pants but a different top can really change the entire look. I am on a secret mission to never wear the same outfit to work (which I go to twice a week) twice. My coworkers (well, just one or two of them) already think I'm snobby and overdressed so why not play into that and wear fabulous things I've made every time I show up.

Anyway, on to the vintage blouses:



Like those beads and sleeves!


Nice Pleat.

So beaded! Love.


These are from Anthro.
Also from Anthro.

Finally, I am washing My Three Sorbetto's today. They are going in the wash on the cold/cold handwash/delicate cycle. I am going to hang them outside to dry so they'll smell wonderful. As a general rule I don't wash my clothing very often (because it diminishes the integrity of the cloth over time) because I rarely sweat or get dirty. Sometimes with sewing projects though, a good wash helps the components mesh. Does that make sense?
