Dressember - Day 2

Today's dress is an adapted Chloe Turtle Neck dress worn with Jo Oversized Blazer from Mayamiko, an ethical women's wear company which employs women in Malawi and works to provide education, training, nutrition and sanitation in disadvantaged communities.

Today I lead worship in which people contributed gifts for women and children who will spend Christmas in one of the local Women's Aid refuges. Today's service coincides with the middle of 16 days of Activism against gender-based violence.

Mayamiko founder Paola kindly let me have some extra material to add to the collar for using some of the time with a clerical collar insert. I am pleased with the way I have managed to pattern-match this so I can still wear the dress at other times too!
