Work clothes

I finished up a couple of dresses for my oldest daughter for work. Now that she is a little mommy, it is harder to get it together in the morning. A "complete" outfit in one makes it easier. Sticking with basic colors also helps. Simple black shoes and a belt (which I will attempt to also make) is all she needs. They are really nice, with buttons from her grandmother that were passed on.





The blue is a polyester and rather silky feeling. The red is cotton.





I put a pocket in each skirt to make things easier and also, in the red put a little "secret" pocket inside the bodice. The only thing is I hope she doesn't "lose" anything by forgetting she tucked it in there.
