Notes Sometimes life is just complicated, so I really longed for something not so complicated to sew. And for this purpose, I can really recommend this pattern. It was done in one day, is nice fitting and I think the different patterns of the two fabrics make it look like fun and a relaxed holiday by the sea.

The overall fit is great, I only had to amend the hip area a bit, since there was a "bump". But it might as well have been my fault, as I lost quite some weight and might have gotten my new measurements wrong... I also shortened the sleeves and finished them with cuffs. And shortened the whole dress by about 15cm, it would have ended right below my knee, but I prefer mini-dresses.
And of course, I could not resist adding a bow ;)

    Thank you Jane and Désirée!
    And Jane, this is a great idea, it would be perfect with leggings underneath: still very feminin but you don't have to pay attention to sitting lady-like all the time ;) I will have to get matching ones!
