Villain, Girl-Reporter!

Hello, all. This is girl-reporter Villain signing on...

Here is my shirt dress in deco fabric:

The sepia photo was totally unintentional, but fortuitous: I'm getting a Polly Perkins vibe from it. I used a Simplicity pattern that I have made before (this time, sans bells and whistles) and sleeves from a Butterick pattern. The dress is super comfortable and simple, but I could dress it up a touch, too. I've got the slingback pumps, but what I really need is a sharp trench coat. Anyone know a good pattern and/or place to get water resistant microfiber?

Villain, signing off... for now
