I began my rather bleh bleary-eyed morning with a rather bleh navy dress.
Yikes! I need a better dress to put me in a better mood…stat!
First, I lopped of these silly things:
Next, I tackled that completely un-fun length!
I turned the dress around to use the button-up back as my new button-up neck. I used that bottom scrap for a little sash action to cinch the waist of my new dress. My dress worked for work, as well as a little coffee-fueled reprieve! 🙂
Improving my dress improved my mood tremendously! The coffee didn’t hurt either. 😉
Cheers!
How do you just turn a dress around? Don’t you have a funny lumpy section in the back where the bust was?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. 🙂 You just have to play with it and see what works! 🙂
I love this refashion! I’d definitely wear a dress like this one. Well done!
Love the remake! Very stylish. Simplicity in line and color speaks volumes. You can just accessorize this new piece to change up the looks in the future. Great going.
This is so cute! Great job!
