Day 217: Life of the Party Dress
I don’t care if this piece was originally really expensive and on-trend. It looks ridiculous!
What the What?!???
Not only is this jumpsuit one of the dumbest-looking things I’ve seen, it also had a mangled zipper.
Never been worn!
There’s an extremely expensive boutique here in Columbia that donates their damaged stuff to Revente’s Last Call. Kudos to them for not just destroying the stuff. 🙂
Anywho…I needed this jumpsuit to be a sexy party dress STAT! Time was of the essence! I made a nice, big chop!
Off with your legs!
Then, I put my new dress on my dress form. I fitted it on the side where the broken zipper was. Technically, I should have just put in a new zipper, but alas! I was already running late to a really fun party! 🙂
Pinned!
When doing this, I had to be careful. If I made the dress too fitted, I wouldn’t be able to get in or out of it. I had to get it just right. Luckily, I’m pretty bendy and can wriggle my way into just about anything (thank you yoga!)! 🙂 I ran the pinned side through my machine, and cut off the excess material, completely removing the broken zipper.
I made a quickie sash from one of the discarded legs, and was ready to go! 🙂
Time to party! 🙂
I think this dress is a huge improvement over that silly jumpsuit! 🙂
Oh…and check out my daring footwear!
This could get dangerous!
I really have to admit…I have some extremely fun friends! 🙂
The Charming Host! 🙂
Yes…he has a ball pit in his living room. Jealous much?
Hi Jeff! 🙂

Saving the world one garment at a time. 🙂
Um, I love the new look! And the shoes are hot. I’m inspired.
This is all around haute! And super HOT because it’s green. I love this look! (and those shoes are ah-mazing)
you looked amazing in that dress last night! (and I apologize for photobombing that picture. but WOW did we have fun…in style!)
You go to the BEST parties. Great dress, amazing shoes (how long did you last in them)?!
I’m inclined to agree with you about the parties! 🙂 Thanks! I managed to last all night without falling! I’m still pretty proud of that! 🙂
What a great dress! I have a ball pit in my living room too… but i have two toddlers.
Shoe envy over here.
cute dress. all your refashions turn out great! the guy in the “hey LA” pic looks like tosin from animals as leaders.
Really quite like that… looks good on you! Did you get my little weird parcel from Australia btw? Have you hidden it under the bed in the hope you’ll never find it again!?!?
Thanks! 🙂 Oh yes…I have the parcel…AND I have fun ideas of what will become of it! 😀
