Favourite Confidence Boosting Sewing Patterns

It doesn't matter what size or shape you are, we all have days where we feel a little less than confident, a little bit bleh... or just fine! But sometimes we stumble upon a sewing pattern that puts a little pep in our step and makes us feel awesome!

What sewing pattern do you wear the gives you a little confidence boost?

My current favourite for everyday wear is the Closet Core Jenna shirt in a blue and white striped cotton, it feels a little bit smart, but by rolling the sleeves up and pairing with jeans it's what I call classy-casual!

I also love my Pauline Alice Ibi dress - the maxi-est maxi dress!!

The Reeta Shirt dress from Named Clothing (although I only ever put one of the patch pockets on the chest because I can never get them to look level!!! I suspect one boob is droopier than the other!!)

It's fitted in a roomy way at the top, I like the sleeve length, and the skirt has just enough swish!

Don't wear it everyday - but it's definitely one of those items that puts a spring in my step. I feel 'put-together' when I wear it.
