    The long waisted capri pants are VERY FLATTERING! The hourglass shape is terrific! It really nips in your waist, making it look tiny!

    The capris end at the narrowest part of your legs making your legs look vert slender too.

    Hey Jen!!! Great job on this project!! It turned out so gooddd!!! Looks so much like the inspo picture!! I love watching your videos! Every time you post I need to watch it!! I hope that school is going by smoothly for you! I completely understand what you mean about sewing being so expensive and trying not to spend money I am currently going through the same thing. Especially because I don’t have much space where I live to store it… Anyways I hope you are having a good day!!❤😊

    Hi. First time viewer here. I love that you took inspiration from a picture and re-created the look. If you ever need a different vintage inspired pattern for pedal pushers, Charm Patterns (by Gertie) has a beautiful pair in the Jane Set Pattern and also in her Gertie Sews Vintage Casual book. Much better size range as well on her Charm Patterns.

    thankyou so much for the sub!! I'm excited for you!! I'd love to do a beginner sewing vid but I don't feel qualified enough. I can let you know some brands 😊 I like Pfaff (mine is pfaff ambition 620) admittedly very expensive but I was solddd ! I worked at a sewing store and sold machines the ones that are "kids machines" break down easily ☹️😞 theyre like 50$ but it's good to invest in a 100-300$ range machine, "singer heavy duty" is a fan favorite! other brands are Brother, Janome and Juki (: Going to a local sewing store that sells "commercial" machines is the best choice, it seems intimidating but they're there to help 🕺🏻every machine needs a servicing too (every couple years) maybe can get one used machine but yes its a true investment but soooo worth it to be able to let your creativity flow 💕

    Hi! I did not make the wrap top but I bought it on depop (second hand store online) It is armani jeans brand size 4 (I'm a size 4, it is true to size) I searched "collared sleeveless wrap top" maybe that can help you search a pattern or similar top ☺️ I hope that helps!
