[@RavenMaureen]

[@pammihicklin2298]

I love the animal print collar. I really like the colorful patch too. It sounds like you're enjoying your new job so far. It's Sooo important! Thx for sharing such a cool video! 💕

[@RavenMaureen]

Thanks Pam!!

[@TinyTele]

You are so creative I like all the collars.

[@RavenMaureen]

Thank you! 😊

[@sewonsister]

I love Sade too! She is an icon!

[@RavenMaureen]

YESS!!

I really love the sweatshirt with bees and butterflies. Also one with pearls. I have some faux pearls and will probably copy that idea. I volunteer at a food bank and garden and sewed a crossbody just big enough for my phone and a few extra things. It allows me to keep my stuff close and protected while remaining hands free and I don’t have to worry if my clothes have pockets.

[@RavenMaureen]

Yes, go for it! Can't wait to see. I might have to purchase a fanny pack to keep on me lol

[@missygrando1965]

You've used some super fun custom touches.

[@RavenMaureen]

Glad you like them! Thank you so much!

How fun! Many years ago I worked in a service industry where we had to wear black slacks and white button ups, I never missed an opportunity to individualize my white button up with a brooch worn as a collar embellishment. I became a collector and to this day I wear my “vintage” brooches on lapels, berets, blouses, etc. I love your gift to yourself of the YSL brooch, you deserve a concrete reminder of your hard work! I appreciate you in so many ways. Continue to be you♥️.

Thank you for watching Lois! And I appreciate you sharing this story - it lets me know I was on the right path of thinking haha

[@stilettodivah]

You could add a small belt bag to the no pocket pants to hold your phone.

[@RavenMaureen]

Oh I love this idea!!! Going to shop for one right now!

Hello I’m a proud newly subscriber. Congratulations on your new job and position. I’m old enough to be your mom twice or your grandmother once lol I’m old. I wanted to give assistance to your all black uniform wardrobe, for the next time you forget yo pockets😂. You need at least 3 aprons with pockets all black of course, One at work, car and home. I have been going through physical and occupational therapy due to a knee replacement. My occupational therapist suggested an apron with pockets. My aprons have come in handy when you have to use a walker or cane, l can carry my water bottle, snacks, phone etc. they have been a life saver. It has been truly a blessing watching your KZbin videos ❤ love peace and blessings to you always.

[@RavenMaureen]

Hi Cynthia - welcome! Thanks for the apron idea!!

[@patriciadennis5270]

[@sajethegirl]

I think the neon collar is my fave!

[@RavenMaureen]

yes, so many fun colors!!

[@lisasalvatore7420]

I love the patches on the sweatshirt idea! I have patches calling to me now from my sewing box! They're saying "see! I knew I wouldn't be in here forever!"

[@RavenMaureen]

LOL, it's so fun and quick too!

[@ZeldaSews]

You make lovely clothes ❤

[@RavenMaureen]

Thank you! 😊

[@nancynewman6592]

This caught my eye when I saw 'all black wardrobe' as I am a musician that of course has to wear all black for gigs and concerts. However not one of your lovely embellishments or collars would be allowed 🙃 My fave is your pearl studded sweatshirt :)

[@RavenMaureen]

Thanks, Nancy

[@Vstylzcreations]

New sub! Love your content! I believe we work for the same company. I work in the "back of the house" too. Since we have to wear predominantly black, I go over the top. I am right at the edge of the cliff😂😂😂😂😂

[@RavenMaureen]

Hey! Thanks for subscribing and watching!

[@cjhines726]

Can you put in-seam pockets to the pants so it doesn't mess with darts?

[@RavenMaureen]

I could on one side - the other side has a side zip.
