Nevaeh

Made for Mermaids just released a new pattern and it’s awesome. The Nevaeh pattern allows you to choose to make either a dress, shorts, Capri or pants romper. It also includes different sleeve lengths and also a cute ruffle detail on two options. They give you different necklines to choose as well. The back gives you this cute little keyhole and tie, so you can get in and out of your romper with ease. The elastic waist is nice and really helps pull this outfit together.

I choose to make the shorts version with short sleeves and a low neckline. For my fabric I choose this cute 2 way stretch mystery fabric from Walmart. This romper is so cute for everyday wear. It’s so comfortable, especially when chasing after my kids. I regret I didn’t add pockets though. Next time, I will definitely remember to do so.

You may have heard that Made for Mermaids have expanded their sizing to be more inclusive of other sizes. Which is so cool. This is their first pattern that has the new sizes. Now you get to see even more gorgeous makes of other sewists. Check out Nevaeh today! The introductory price won’t last long. Please post your makes in the Made for Mermaids Facebook group or tag them on Instagram. I would to see what you come up with.

Apricot Rulo dress

I wanted to pop on here really quick to show you my outfit of the day/ootd. I used the Fab Clique Shoppe’s Apricot French Terry, which by the way is amazing, to make a Rulo dress. The options I chose were the dress option with the bell sleeves. This turned out to be such a cute dress and it’s perfect for South Florida Fall weather. Talk to you guys later. Much love and many blessings.

Who’s ready for Fall?

Fall

So Fall has officially begun. In most states people are wearing their cute sweaters and tall boots. Down here in south Florida that’s not happening soon enough. The weather is still so hot. Like Olaf melting into a puddle hot. We have to dress in cute layers and booties. With that being said, I decided to make some cute hot weather fall clothes.

Patterns for Pirates So Classic dress makes the perfect Fall inspired dress. This pattern calls for woven fabric, I choose cotton, which is one the best fabrics for hot weather. Since it’s natural fiber it allows the fabric to breathe, that way keeping you cooler. I made the button up mini version, with cute wooden buttons. The fit was great and the length is perfect on it on or with some cute leggings or tights. I found my fabric on eBay and it has the perfect color palette for fall.

I also decided to make a matching cardigan. I choose Pattern for Pirates Cocoon Cardigan, with long sleeves and patched pockets. This piece is so so comfortable. The fabric is so soft and fuzzy. The cardigan is perfect to snuggle in. The pockets are the perfect size. I can fit all of my Knick knacks with my pockets looking overstuffed.

Both of these patterns worn together, look so good. If you need a fall inspired outfit to wear apple picking or to the pumpkin patch, look at these two patterns. If you have kids, they have a kids version as well. Perfect for matching outfits 😍.

Jade!

You guys may have heard that Made For Mermaids released an awesome new pattern. Just in case you haven’t, it’s called Jade. Jade is available in doll, baby, girls and Women sizes. It’s awesome because it has so many options. First let me tell you about the bodice. You can choose between a tie front or a scoop neck. If you really want to change it up there’s a hack for it to be a halter. The bottom has many options as well. You can decide between a peplum, a mini dress, dress, shorts or pants. I have made four amazing outfits from this one pattern. Plus I forgot to mention above that it has pockets!!!! Get this pattern while it’s on sale.
