Maria Shell PED Day #14Comments
Lots of repeats especially the half-sleeved Linden Sweatshirt and the self-drafted tights. I would like to find the space in my life to make some additions to my wardrobe. Time is so tight right now, that when I try and think of what I should make, I panic. What if I make the wrong thing out of the wrong fabric? I feel as if there is little room for mistakes right now. I am also very conflicted about wearing that Margo Selby scarf. Is it okay for me to wear store bought scarves when I can make them myself?

Comments
The hardest has been putting myself in front of the camera everyday. I am missing jeans and vests. I am a bit on the cold side, and I have had to turn our heater up on occasion. I normally wear a light weight Patagonia vest on top of everything to keep warm. I am discovering that knee-highs and cowls can do the same thing.
