Posted in: Style & Wardrobe • August 31, 2017

Seamwork Style is here to inspire you to try new pattern pairings and styles. Every month we mix Seamwork patterns with our favorite accessories to create outfits for work and play. Whether your style is modern, easy, or playful, we’ve got you covered.

Our patterns pair effortlessly together so that you can steadily build a closet full of clothing that reflects you and your personal taste.

This month, we styled the Tessa jeans to create three unique looks.















The Tessa Jeans


The Tessa member exclusive features a more tailored fit, making it the perfect match for this sleek look.


The Neenah Turtleneck


Shorten the Neenah dress into a top, and you have a chic fall staple. We made this version in a black ponte for a great layering staple.


The Camden Cape


The Camden Cape is the perfect statement piece. Sew this pattern in a vibrant wool to breathe some color into your fall wardrobe.

Black Booties


A timeless black bootie with a block heel elevates this cool-weather look.







The Tessa Jeans


The Tessa jeans offer a relaxed fit, inspired by vintage denim. Combined with a vibrant indigo wash, this pair is perfect for fall.


The Julia Tank


Just because you made it in the summer doesn’t mean you can’t wear it in fall. Layer the Julia tank under sweaters like Oslo.


The Oslo Cardigan


The Oslo cardigan gets a whole new look when it is lengthened to a duster length. We sewed this version in a boldly printed sweater knit. Side seam vents add additional interest.

Flat Mules


Finish this easy look with a simple flat mule.









The Tessa Jeans


High-waisted designs like the Tessa jeans offer the perfect opportunity to play with shorter top lengths.


The Hayden Top


We sewed this cropped version of Hayden out of a brushed modal fabric, softening the silhouette.

Statement Necklace


Add a bold and modern necklace to this outfit for color and texture.

Black Block Heel


Lengthen the lines of this silhouette by pairing it with a block heel.
