Burda Style 06/2010 121 Kimono Jacket/Blouse

I really should know better by now, but I got seduced by this look from June's Burda Style magazine;


So I made the simple kimono style blouse #121 from some leftover cotton and cotton sateen trim.


Alas on me it is a different story to the magazine photo. I look like I am either on my way to bed or to a karate class. If anyone has suggestions for how to tame the crazy sleeves I am all ears, otherwise I think I will admit defeat and make a coordinating pair of black silk pajama pants . Or take up karate!



No better with a skirt.
