A Week of Work Outfits from My Handmade Wardrobe

This week I'm sharing something a little different—a full week of work outfits from my handmade wardrobe. I wanted to show what I wear during a typical work week and how I mix and match handmade garments into practical, comfortable outfits. In this video I share: • How I planned a week's worth of outfits • My favorite handmade summer trousers • Layering pieces for an overly air-conditioned office • New summer sewing projects in rotation • How I build a versatile handmade work wardrobe around neutral basics Many of these pieces are recent summer makes, while others have been staples in my closet for several years. One of my favorite parts of sewing is creating garments that continue to earn their place in my wardrobe season after season.

One of my favorite parts of sewing is actually wearing the clothes I make. If you enjoy these wardrobe-style videos, let me know in the comments—I always appreciate hearing what you'd like to see more of. Thanks so much for watching, and happy sewing!
