101 in 1001: #95: Buy a custom-made shirt

I finished several of my 101 tasks last week, but have been sadly remiss in blogging their completion. I will remedy that this week, starting with the task I just finished.

#95: Buy myself a custom-made shirt from Ureshii.etsy.com.

I sent an Etsy message to the seller on my birthday last week, listing my measurements to make sure the top would be suitable. She wrote back and said it would be, and so I have just now ordered it!

The picture to the left comes from the Ureshii web site. My top will be in the Deep Sea colour, which is a lovely rich teal.

Isn't it a pretty style? I can't wait to see how it comes out! The fabric is soft and stretchy, and I think I'll be wearing this top a LOT this winter.

Ordering it to fit ME, instead of buying clothes and trying to stuff myself into them... it's different for me. I like it.

She has a dress in a similar style that I also really like... hmmm.... :)

I know, me too! I DO plan to make myself a skirt as one of my 101 tasks, but I've got a long way to go to be as good as she is. :)
