I'm Sari and I'm Haley and this is Seamwork Radio.

Welcome back to Seamwork Radio where we share practical ideas for building a creative process so you can sew with intention and joy.

Today we're talking about five outfit formulas you can wear the spring.

So we're going to cover what an outfit formula is, what makes a good outfit formula, and then five

ideas you could incorporate into your own spring wardrobe. Right, Haley, let's start with our

icebreaker for today. So historically, what is your most worn spring garment?

Spring can be such a hard season to dress for. And I feel like the beginning of spring and the end of

spring looks so drastically different. It's like many seasons layered together. Yeah. Where we live, it feels like just

many false starts to spring wedged in between actual winter. Yeah. You get tricked a lot.

Yeah. So I feel like in spring, what I like to, I start wanting to dress more like breezy and a little more color and more prints.

But realistically, I can't incorporate like skirts and dresses and those types of things until much later in the season.

So I have to fake it.

I think some of the garments or the items that help me fake it are I start wearing a little bit less jeans and wearing more

lightweight pants like linen pants and things like that. They still keep me warm,

but they feel a little bit more. Yeah, lightweight. Lightweight and relaxed in

springtime. Also, I feel like clogs really help me fake it. The nice chunky wood heel keeps me high

enough off the ground so that my feet aren't in the mud. Yeah, very important. Very important if you live somewhere like us where it like rains a lot in the spring.

So I feel like those are probably in heaviest rotation.

Other than that, it's like a slight variation on what I wear in the winter with maybe less wool coats.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Isn't it so funny? There's so much eagerness in spring. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Isn't it so funny?
