Welcome to South Carolina…land of the constant wintery rain! Oy. If I sound cynical and tired, it’s because of this icktastic slow drizzle that’s been happening all day. :/ I decided to wear something pretty and floral to get myself out of this irksome funk.

Fortunately for my very groggy self, this would be a fairly easy fix. 🙂
First, I took out those awful shoulder pads!

Then, I made a quick chop!

A pin and hem followed.

Now…the dress was still just a tad too big. I took a safety pin and pinned the dress at the waist from the inside to cinch it just a tad. 🙂


Unfortunately, I chopped off just a bit too much to be able to wear it to work and maintain any sort of decency. :/ I put a black skirt under it, and you know what? I think I like it even better that way!
I wore my cute (slightly too short) dress to Drip Coffee, where I nommed on a tasty eggplant sammich after work! 🙂

Whew! This dreary day has really sucked the life out of me! I hope I can get my energy back. 🙂 Until then…
Cheers!
