Day 134: An Easy Tribal Halter
Today’s piece comes from my awesome coworker, Susan D! 🙂
Seriously…how awesome is that print?! 🙂
As a skirt, it’s too big for me. After spending my day off cleaning and erranding, I just didn’t feel like messing with my sewing machine. Time for a no-sew refashion!
I pulled the skirt up to my chest and pinned it with the ties facing forward, making it tight around my bust.
Next, I tied the side ties around my neck to make it a halter. This also completely hides the safety pin. 🙂
Now my new dress was ready for a tasty dinner with the Fella at the always yummy Labrasca’s! 🙂
It was a bit chilly for a halter dress, so I tossed on a black cardi.
Cheers!

You’ve done wonders with this piece. Very clever with the no-sew approach. The cardian worked as well. Keep surprising us. I refashioned a sweatshirt jacket that belonged to my mother. I was nostalgic a few weeks ago and did a this project. Now, I have a functioning sweatshirt to remember her with. Check out my attempt at my blog.

Very nice! Getting to remake something that belonged to someone you love makes it all the more special. 🙂

Love the dress. I don’t think Amy other refashion would have suited this piece as well as this no sew does!
