See it was like this...I was suppose to be sewin' this weekend...instead I read a book, took a nap, cleaned my room...and finally sat down to sew on Sunday evening. By this time I had already decided that I had plenty of garments that I could wear instead of the dress so this is where I left it...
BTW, it works really great with the Simplicity 3631 jacket I previously made and with the Jackie O retro black/white jacket. And I love the black pleather detailing...I also added the darts back into the skirt front as they are in the original pattern. I couldn't make the exact same dress as the tan one could I?

I looked quite nice without the pressure of rushing a dress through...so I will finish the black version up sometime soon because it's now time to make pjs for Christmas gifts!

Hey, I like that outfit a lot, you look good:-)
That outfit looks sensational! I LOVE the reversible dress - it really suits you.
Great party outfit! It is so flattering
Good choice! Very chic!
Your look great for a party. Nice gameplan for a punt, you will enjoy the process so much more without the pressure.
You look MAHVELOUS, dahling!
Oh, I like the dress you wore so much better--it's so you! and you look like you're havin' fun before you even got to the party!
Love the outfit you chose. So much more festive than black sheath.
The dress looks great. It is always best not to stress yourself if you can help it.
And you needed a new dress, why? When this outfit is fabulous on you? Of course, don't we sewers always want to make a new outfit for every event?
This is a great dress. I will have to go back and see the post for it.
You looked great, Carolyn!
Carolyn, you look great in all the outfits. When I clicked back to the tan dress entry I noticed the great Chanel style shoes you were wearing. Where did you get those? I'm actually assuming they are knock offs due to the fact that Chanel shoes run in the $500 range!

Great choice - you look absolutely fabulous Carolyn!
I AGREE YOU DID LOOK QUITE NICE!
I like your "punted" outfit. Really looks great!
I like the piping on the black dress.
How amazing!!! I was just thinking on my way to work this morning about your reversible dress-thinking through another projuect-the possibility of a reversible skirt-you look fantastic-the dress is superb.
WHat a great outfit! You look fab!
You look outstanding. Work it! You classy lady.
Smashing m'dear! And less pressure is always a good thing.
I'm trying to get caught up here on commenting, so I'm late to the party. You look fabulous in what you chose, plus you didn't have the pressure of finishing the other dress. What more coud you ask for?
