Classic Look for Fall

While listing patterns for my Etsy shop I found this Very Easy Vogue 7210 from 1979. The look is perfect for fall, timeless, classic. It has a retro look that can easily be made into a now look. The pattern includes instructions and pieces for the jacket and belt, skirt, and pants.
The jacket is loose fitting and unlined, perfect to wear over sweaters and long sleeve blouses. It is front wrapped (no buttonholes!!), hip length (hide the butt, another !!), with shawl collar and patch pockets.
The skirt is a straight,  front wrapped skirt that is gathered at front and back to a buttoned waistband.
The pants are slim, straight-legged, and cuffed, with a mock fly front zipper closing.
Simple, timeless separates to build a wardrobe….and still look good.

Keep those seams straight!
