Not too long ago, my husband and I were grocery shopping at Walmart when we happened upon a clearance bin of fabric in the middle of an unassuming aisle. Of course, I had to look and was rather excited to find a ton of knit fabric bolts marked down to a $1 yd. Surprisingly, I don't have a lot of knit in my fabric stash, and was really excited to be going home with 5 yds of black and gray jersey. As soon as they got home, they went straight into the washing machine, and I thumbed through my knit patterns trying to figure what to make with all of this newly found fabric.
I was torn between McCalls M7127, Simplicity 1804, and McCalls M6744. Ultimately, I settled on McCalls M7127 because of it's versatility. I love that it can be worn with jeans and heels, around the house with joggers, or tucked into a skirt for something a little fancier. Lately, a friend and I have been trying to figure out our individual style, how to dress down, and how to make each piece functional for everyday which is pretty challenging for a couple of girls who are used to dressing up for every occasion (this includes going to the grocery store, haha). In the meantime, while I'm trying figure out a chic, easy, and effortless style that fits my life as a mom to one busy, busy little bee of a boy, the M7127 helps me inch closer to achieving this goal with it's versatility and fun back detail.
Without further ado, here is my version of the M7127 worn fancy, because I still have the softest spot dress up.
