An Education Inspiration
The other day I watched An Education for the first time and, like others, was totally inspired by the early 1960s fashions. Since I already have a few patterns and fabrics that would work together in creating something in the similar style of Jenny's Paris dress, I'm sharing these finds with you!
- a. Sunflower Sunrise Lilacs Purple from fabric.com ($4.98/yd)
- b. Watercolor print at Etsy ($23 for 4 1/2 yards)
- c. Blue and Pink Floral print at Etsy ($27 for 2 1/2 yards)
- d. Pink and Purple Floral print at Etsy ($15 for 3 yards)
- e. Bloomcraft Big Bold Floral print at Etsy ($26 for 3 1/2 yards)
- 1. Simplicity 5020, Size 14 B34 at Etsy ($9)

Oh, this is all so very tempting. I wanted practically every single piece of clothing I saw in that movie.
AHHHHH!!! I absolutely must see this movie now. This dress is to DIE for. How darling. I absolutely have to have one like that now. I’ll take that E fabric with that #3 dress please. So fabulous!
I haven’t seen the film but after looking at the main poster I could already tell I would love the costumes! Now I must watch it :)
Just love fabric C!
