Sparkle & Wine. McCall's 6173 & 6844

This is one of the outfits I took with me to LA last week (man has it really been a week?) I wore it with flats there because I was NOT about to take on the town in heels. NOT ME. I had a quick errand to run and decided to put this on. I LOVE THIS LOOK.

When I first considered making sequin leggins, I thought I wanted them like true leggins. I decided I wanted these a little more loose. I'm so glad I went in that direction. They look better on me not fitted all the way to the ankle.

I kept my accessories pretty simple with an animal print necklace,sparkly bracelet and simple gold/diamond studs.My shoes I've had for a while and I'm just now getting a chance to wear them. They will get MUCH wear when it warms up again lol.

For those of you who sew, here is a review of the cardigan. The leggings are so simple. Just buy the pattern lol. NO need to review them.

McCall's 6844 and McCall's 6173 Leggings

Pattern Description: Close-fitting cardigans (do not meet at center front) have collar extending into front band, and narrow hem. A and C: shaped hemline, wrong side shows.

Pattern Sizing: XS-M, I made the medium.


Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

YES!
Were the instructions easy to follow? SUPER easy.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the high low hem of view C


Fabric Used: Ponte Roma


Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: None

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I plan on making this one again, soon. I loved it. It went together so well and I love the overall look.

Conclusion:GREAT pattern! You can't go wrong with this one.

Great look and the necklace is fabulous.

So So cute Adrienne! Which view did you use on the pants(or did you alter it at all)? Are the sequins sewn on or glued onto a mesh knit. And lastly are they comfy to wear or are they stiff when you sit etc? Sorry for all the questions but I'm thinking about making some but have some doubts... I love the cardigan as well. Perfect outfit!

Thank you Brenda!

Thanks Rachelle!

Thank you! I used view B. I didn't alter them at all. I made the medium and this is how it fits straight out of the envelope. They are SUPER comfy. The sequin are sewn onto this heavy knit. It's more of a heavy plastic sequin and not the metal kind. Hope that helps :)
