A bolero or a cowl?

Both! It's great. I have never had a silk or organza bolero (I had a cotton one years back) and suddenly seeing them everywhere I had an urge to make one. So I did.

This one ties at the back with the ribbon but I didn't manage to get good pictures. I'll leave that for next time. While playing with it in front of the mirror and trying out garments to wear it with I realized that it can also be worn as a cowl.

I also decided to make a new one, but this time I am going to try and make it a little less wide, to see what the effect shall be. And of course I'll use a bit sturdier organza.
