Day 202: Meet me in Bali Dress
Today’s dress has all of my most favoritest colors in the whole wide world!
Sadly, that’s about all there is to love about this one. I decided to kick things up a notch and make this dress every bit at flirty and fun as that fubu print!
First, these guys were ripped out with my bare hands! RAWR!
Then I turned the dress around to the button up back, and cut along that seam a bit…
This left me with enough room to pull the dress down over my shoulders. I used the sleeves to tie the whole thing up, and Wah Lah! 🙂
I’m so happy with how this no-sew refash worked out! This might just be one of my favorites!
I decided to don my favorite new thrifted handbag that I scored for $1. 🙂
I think it looks like an owl.
Fella says it looks like a thong. :/
Now you tell me…who’s right?
Cheers!

I’ve loved reading your blog… You may have already shown this how-to in another post (i haven’t read them all yet), but how exactly do you wrap the sleeves around to look so perfect? I would love to know! Thank you!

Definitely an owl – don’t even see a thong! I think if you shortened that dress it would be even cuter but the print and the colors are AWESOME!

Thanks! I’m glad the blogoshere jury is with me on this one! 🙂

Owl.
Oh, and “Voila!” is from the French, a combination of the second person singular imperative of voir (“to see”) + la (“there”), or so says dictionary.com.
(Sorry, had to geek out on you…)
Love your stuff!!!

The dress looks infinitely better. Great job!
It’s definitely an owl–you could add some googly eyes to it, just to end the debate. lol
Trust a guy to see a thong there though. 🙂
