The second week with my Winter Capsule Wardrobe and thereby the week before christmas has been stuffed with things to do and quite stressful. Luckily, my vacation startint already on Friday and I could do the finishing touches and publish my new pattern the Alette Coatigan. Now I’m on my well-deserved christmas vacation and on a short break concerning my Winter Capsule Wardrobe. I will resume posting my daily outfits on my Instagram account on January. But now more about my outfits of the 2nd week:

OUTFIT 6
Turtleneck sweater: 2nd Hand via Humana
Blouse: Uniqlo

Its quite unusual for me to be wearing a wide sweater with wide pants but I think that this outfit works for me. Especially the heels are adding make sure that the outfit does not look too bulky. This sweater is a good example that you should forget about sizes when shopping second hand. It’s actually a size 46 even though I usually wear a size 36. But I just love its oversized shape for winter 🙂

This midi skirt is one of my favourite me-mades of all time. Some white lace fabric has actually been laying in my stash for another version for years. I really need to find the time to finally sew it next spring 😉 You can actually use any basic skirt sloper to create such a skirt. The upper lace layer has a lenght of 77 cm and the lining is 30 cm shorter.

I actually made this leopard coatigan at the end of last year for a blogger meet-up in Hamburg because you need make something new for such an event after all. I’m especially fond of the hidden pockets in the front as they keep my hands nice and warm. 
As I’m really loving this shape, I want to share this pattern with you. Since it is almost christmas, I will be giving this pattern away here as a free download until January 5, 2020.
