Here’s my take on Simplicity 2971. I had originally planned to make view B, but after seeing Erica B.’s, I couldn’t resist View F.
I made two significant changes: I made the straps a bit wider in hopes of covering bra straps and I used narrow elastic to create the bubble hem line.
Unfortunately, I’m not comfortable with my shoulders that exposed. (Even my swim suits cover more up top!) So, I’ll be wearing this one under a jacket.
And, as the personality quiz in this magazine pointed out, I’m allergic to bling. I’m thinking the rhinestones are bit too much…
