Designing: Lumberjack Dress

Lumberjack dress | Kristina J. design

All I wanted to create was a flannel dress that would work for special occasions as well as everyday events. No frills. No bells and whistles...just a perfect, little tartan-print dress that felt timeless and wearable. Of course, I couldn't resist my overtly feminine side completely, which explains the presence of the Guipure lace panel on the bodice. In a perfect world, the Lumberjack dress would have turned out a bit longer, too (had I not so woefully underestimated how much extra fabric I'd need to match the check print on the circle skirt). 
Note to self: Order more fabric next time.
2nd note to self: Wear it to every mid-winter party I attend. No shame. HA.


YOUR TURN:
Would you pay more for a winter dress with sleeves over a sleeveless dress that needs a cardi or jacket thrown over to keep warm?
