Royal Inspiration

Over the course of last year I spent a fair amount of time thinking about my style and I realized that if I took the time and energy to make handmade garments I wanted them to be garments I would be happy to wear for years for to come. I have been admiring the Duchesses' timeless style more and more and would like to add some royally inspired garments to my wardrobe this year so I collected a few of my favorite royal ensembles and accompanying patterns and fabrics. There are so many options to pick from and I could easily add a handful more Catherine inspired dresses. I hope you enjoy this inspiration and stay tuned for my royally inspired makes!
