Today’s dress is perfectly fine in its original state. A rare thing for this blog, eh? 😉

This dress came from my own closet. For the past two summers, it has been my go-to dress for every casual occasion. Unfortunately, I am soooooo over maxi dresses. I could just pass this dress off to someone else, but I love the soft jersey fabric, and I hate to let a good black dress go.
Lately, I’ve been more mini than maxi, so a good chop was in store!

I cut some of the bottom off to make a sash (Sorry…I love sashes! I can’t let them go!), and this simple refash was all done! Since the fabric is jersey, there’s no need to hem anything, as it’s not going to fray. 🙂

I was quite happy with my old/new dress, and wore it to a fun Rifftrax Night!

After the movie, I let Jonel indulge in some fairly shoddy extended arm photography (just teasing, Jonel!)! 😉



Just another fun & silly night with some delightful people! 🙂

Cheers!
I have done this with lots of my maxi dresses too!!!
Agreeing with furpurr!
You mention having owned your jean jacket for over 12 years…That means you were 17 when you got it, yes? I wonder how many of us are envious of the fact that you can STILL wear something you acquired in HIGH SCHOOL?!?!?! ACK!!!! Congrats on that, btw!! 😎
