What's Penny Wearing? #66 Yet Another Dress and Pinafore

This is one more dress and pinafore that I had made for work. I love the blue, and I can mix and match the green pinafore with other clothing I have.
My boss gave me the crocheted collar shown in the first two photos, and I got really lucky and found the lovely blue shawl at a thrift shop! The collar you see beneath it, below, was sent to me by my friend Faith (thank you!!).
I have managed to find some shirts/blouses at thrift shops, as well, and I think I may have one more skirt made some day and then I will really be set. Penny will be modeling for you again, naturally. Now I think I will concentrate on searching for comfortable shoes that look, somehow, at least somewhat period-appropriate. This should be interesting....

    Love this outfit, especially with the beautiful blue shawl.
    I think that we are losing you to the 19th Century... or maybe it's Penny. Maybe she's casting a spell on you.LOL!
    I'll bet you are having a lot of fun with this new job.
    I think a low, boot with laces would be a good choice for all this clothing.

    I'm surprised you have to HAVE period clothing made for work...I assume you just pull something out of your closet.
