Vacation Wardrobe Planning
I'm going on a three-week trip fairly soon and have busily been sewing my travel wardrobe. The challenge of packing light and packing right becomes a hundred times more complicated now that I have vowed not to buy clothes that I haven't made. That means there can't be a quick run to Old Navy to get some shorts and certainly no clothing shopping while I'm traveling. There are a lot of gaps in my wardrobe — particularly separates. I need clothing that I can mix and match and stuff that I won't get sick of wearing on day 11.
To fill these gaps, I made a plan of what exactly I needed to sew. Here it is represented in a cute little infographic. The darker icons represent what pieces of clothing have already been completed (all this week!).
This post is more to keep me honest and remind me what I want to sew than any big revelation or something. Since folks seem to like to know what I'm up to sewing-wise, there you go.
I'll update each icon as I make progress.
Love the Icon :) I would love to see photos of your seperates – I find it super hard to figure out what to buy/make when it comes to seperates – so none of my clothes match…!
wow, you’re really cranking them out! can’t wait to see the finished looks
Inspiring. Whenever I sew with a plan it turns out really well, and then my clothes work together!
I love your little chart. What a great way to help yourself stay on track.
Being the visual girl that I am, I’m in love with your little drawings. It makes so much more sense than words.
