Day 66: Pride Dress
One of my favorite thrift stores has just doubled its price for clothing. Now it all costs $1. 😛 While this is a 100% increase (which would be unheard of if this was…say…Starbucks), I think I’ll let it slide. 🙂
When I bought this colorful skirt for $1, I thought it would be perfect for the 2011 SC Pride Celebration. 🙂
The lightweight fabric was just what I needed for an afternoon listening to music and hanging out with friends in Finlay Park. 🙂
Unfortunately, the bottom hem was coming undone.
I quickly ran the bottom hem through my machine and fixed it.
Of course, I wasn’t going to wear this skirt as a skirt, when it makes such a cute dress! 😉 I cinched it at the waist with a sash from another dress.
I ran into a couple of Roller Derby Pals…
and made sure to keep hydrated. 😉
Fun times…but next year, I’ll hopefully remember to bring sunscreen!
Cheers!

Mega cute as a dress. $1 thrift store!!! Damn, that’s cheap, never found anywhere like that, they must have a huge turnover.

And they used to be a 50 cent thrift store! I suppose it was too good to last! 🙂
