It's really sad that I'm only managing the choir posts at the moment; as I've lamented on Facebook, I seem to be more behind on my Christmas prep than I've ever been...and I'm not even involved in any big projects this year. At least the Choir posts are keeping me from totally neglecting the blog... ;-)
Anyway, December's colors are black, silver gray and red. So this is the Lee bootcut jeans with the saved-from-disaster
Vogue 7604 rayon blend sleeveless blouse under a Lands' End boiled wool jacket that I received for Christmas in ...I think...1996.
That jacket sat in my closet for the longest time; I loved it and wore it now and then but it was way too wide on my shoulders. Finally a few years back I got brave and opened the top part of the armscye seams and moved the sleeve caps up into the jacket about 3/4". I could get away with that as there was a pinch of ease in the sleeve, which I eliminated, and boiled wool stretches a bit so I could kind of manipulate it into the new armsceye. Anyway, the jacket is now making more regular appearances ;-)
