A Kylie Jenner-esque Denim Dress
When fellow Columbia blogger, Haley Sprankle created a Kylie Jenner-esque denim dress ensemble with a thrifted men’s denim shirt and challenged others to do the same, I decided to hop on board.
I couldn’t care less about Kylie Jenner and her ilk if I tried, but even I had to admit this was a really cool look, and I wanted a comfy denim dress of my very own.
I also haven’t sewn a frock in a while and was craving something fun and new. 🙂
I ran to the thrift store and found this large men’s shirt for $1. I was kind of hoping I could do what Haley did, and just wear it as-is. Sadly, it wasn’t meant to be.

OPA!!!!!
When I first found this piece, it was a huge hunk o’ poufy floufitude…
However, this heavily befabriced blue and white denim frock was going to need some help.
A few things would need to be removed…
Then I pinned and sewed the raw edges to the armholes under.
Okay…now is where this post gets piecey. I have been experiencing technical difficulties with my computer, camera, and cat during my staycation…hence my lack of bloggery this week. Anywho…a few pics have been destroyed. 🙁
What I did next, despite my lack of photo evidence was take in the dress at the top about 2 1/2 inches, turning the back of the dress into the front. Then, I hacked off about 13″ from the bottom of the dress and hemmed it.
Now I was left with a cute lil dress to wear to Columbia’s Greek Festival!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
OPA!!!
