Crop top - Self-made
Trousers - 2nd hand/KappAhl
Shoes - Citymarket
Ahh, it has been forever since I last sewed something. I miss my sewing machine when I'm away from it, ha. This top is actually one of the only things I've made this year. This whole year. I had leftover fabric from this dress and as soon as I'd finished the dress, I knew I wanted to make a crop top too. It took me long enough to start and finalize this idea, but once I actually started sewing this was rather a quick project. The back isn't quite as nice as I wanted it to be, but if I have to I can adjust the toggle buttons later if I need to. Two of them are quite tight and one of them a little too loose. I hadn't realized I didn't have much seam allowance which resulted into a tiny bit smaller top than it could have been. I do like the idea I had for the crop top with the toggle buttons and everything, but I must admit that it looks better from the front. Though, the back also looks better in person. I promise.

The top is very sweet and I love the "edgier" back! Well done, I'd definitely grab this if I saw it in the store :)
Wow! I LOVE the print mixing! Florals and tartan is one of the best combos ever!
I LOVE that top, the back is fantastic!
This is so cute! I have a sewing machine that I don't know how to use. It will be a goal next year, to learn how to use it and make cute clothes like this!
Ooooooo! What a great crop top... I can't believe you did this all by yourself! You're very talented and I just love that you paired it with a contrasting pattern on bottom!
