I donned my fur coat last night and shimmied off to the theatre...
I made this dress last year with a beautiful piece of discounted silk, some leftover lining and a recycled zip. It's a simple pattern with just a front and back piece, a few darts and pleats in the waist and is perfect for any occasion. My fur coat, I hasten to add, is very vintage and was possibly the bargain of the century at £30!
Birmingham Royal Ballet are doing The Prince of the Pagodas at Plymouth Theatre Royal this week and my friend very kindly got me some discounted tickets.
I invited someone else to come and share the enjoyment and together we sat in raptures! It is a fabulous ballet choreographed by David Bintley, with music by Benjamin Britten (his only commissioned ballet score) and teamed with costumes and designs by Rae Smith (who did War Horse) it a spectacle not to be missed!
It's on until Saturday and I can definitely recommend going if there are still seats available.
