Well, I have one month left in PR’s Wardrobe Contest, and I think I can do. I just finished my 2nd top, so that leaves 2 tops and 2 bottoms. This is a tunic from Simplicity 3535.

The fabric is a fun green/blue/teal polka dot seersucker that I’ve had in my stash for a few years. The yoke, cuffs, and tie are white eyelet. This top is very light and great for this summer. It should look great with my white linen pants.

As for the pattern itself, I cut the top, used the short sleeves and added the cuff, adding about an inch to accommodate my upper arm (it is designed to be used with 3/4 sleeves and fit the forearm). The pattern is easy to sew. All that said, it is not destined to become one of my favorites. First, I really don’t need many tunics like this. Second, the pattern didn’t wow me. I have boxes full of others that I want to try.
