A bit belated, but my review for the October BurdaStyle Magazine is finally here! While I’m not quite as obsessed with this issue as I was with August or September, I still think this is a very solid release with lots of great pieces for fall. Let’s get into it: First up, let’s take a look at … More October 2017 BurdaStyle Magazine
It’s that time of year again – National Sewing Month. Which means lots of fun Instagram pictures and the Pattern Review Sewing Bee! I entered the Bee on something of a whim last year, and actually managed to make it to round 2, which was amazing. Of course, that means I’m hooked, so I’m back … More Pattern Review Sewing Bee Round 1: Musically Inspired Pencil Skirt
You’ll probably want google translate turned on, because the Russian Burda site has this really amazing timeline detailing all of the Burda fashion history! Check it out!
Tomorrow is the official start of the Annual PR Sewing Bee – and I’m in! It’s going to be a restless night of anticipation, followed by a frenzied morning of pattern and stash searching – wish me luck!
It seemed like everyone was pretty enthused by last month’s issue, and hopefully everyone will be equally excited by the options for September. This month, in my humble opinion, is even better than last month. Yes, there are certainly a few oversized ruffly pieces and a spread in horrible 90s-esque dark florals that obscure some lovely … More BurdaStyle Magazine September 2017
The Russian Burda site has the full preview of the August issue up, and I’m pretty excited with what I’m seeing. I think this is going to be one of those classic Burda issues – lots of really good wearable pieces, with a few memorable but not too over the top designs. And the Burda … More BurdaStyle Magazine August 2017
I was snooping around the various Burda sites hoping to get a peek at the August issue, when, surprise surprise, I found that the German Burda site had posted the Fall/Winter Catalog patterns! Burda only produces new envelope patterns twice a year – once for spring/summer, and once for fall/winter. Being a hardcore Burda fangirl, … More Burda Fall/Winter 2017 Catalog Patterns
The preview for the July BurdaStyle Magazine has been posted. I feel like I should be underwhelmed with this month’s selection, yet, somehow, I’m not. True, there are probably only 2 or 3 stand out patterns that have me close to swooning, but I’m actually pondering quite a few of the other looks in this … More July 2017 BurdaStyle Magazine
The June issue of BurdaStyle Magazine has been posted. Normally between the June and July issues I tend to find one month great and the other pretty dull. Let’s just say I’m keeping my fingers crossed for July, because there really isn’t a whole lot going on in this issue, which shall henceforth be known … More June 2017 BurdaStyle Magazine
After last month’s issue arrived and I saw the preview, I expected the May issue to be a bit disappointing. However, Burda has won me over again this month with bright prints, fun styling, and an AMAZING collection of Plus patterns. I want to wear all of the Plus looks. Seriously. ALL of them. There is quite … More May 2017 BurdaStyle Magazine
