Cold Weather Gear

Just a quick view of ways to keep warm, vintage style... if you're going to sew and wear vintage styles, be aware that they look really silly with modern outerwear. Wouldn't want to spoil the effect of all that work, would you?



Capes and cloaks are a great solution - they're quick and easy to sew, look dramatic, and in the right combination of fabrics, can be quite toasty. I lucked into a lot that had quite a few cape patterns - some have already sold, so there's only one listed right now (the Vogue, above), but there are more to come.
