Violet Femme Dress
Hello there! Sorry for being so long absent. I’ve been extremely busy coughing up my weight in phlegm for the past month. :/ I don’t know or understand the cause of my grody lung gunk funk. But now, it appears that I might actually be getting better! Huzzah! 😀 Of course, the best thing about feeling better and no longer being stuck in bed is getting back to refashioning! 🙂 While digging through my big bin o’ refashionables, I stumbled upon this yellowed white dress that I never managed to get around to revamping over the summer. As anyone who knows me can attest, I cannot wear white for more…
Sorry, Safari!
Wow! Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU for all your support for Revente’s Last Call! Neiman Marcus can’t ignore all the bad publicity they’ve brought upon themselves through their corporate thuggery. I’ll be sure to keep you posted as soon as I know anything new with this situation. Fingers crossed! 🙂 Now…back to the refashions! Why did fashion retailers in the early 90’s all seem to think that the best thing to do with a boring awkward-length dress was to stick a safari scene on the bottom of it?

Now…I’m not going to be blogging a new refashion EVERY DAY or anything (because only a crazy person would do such a thing), but rest assured…I still have many fun tricks up my refashioned sleeve to share with you! 🙂 Where to begin? I had a delightful week off! 🙂 Lots of time to reflect and decompress! I had a fun viewing party for my Rachael Ray appearance on Thursday night, and slept in for most of Friday. I was feeling pretty flippin’ awesome. My big year-long project was done and I was just…
Day 365: Kitschy Dress
Today’s piece is a fun & kitschy handmade house dress. 🙂 Okay…I’m not a fan of the brown & white print (too tablecloth-y!) and this is obviously too big for me. Let’s see what we can do about all that, shall we? First, I threw the dress into a dye bath with my good friend, Scarlet. 🙂 After about 40 minutes in the dye and a rinse & dry, my new dress was ready to be taken in! I decided some of that length had to go as well! Now my new dress is ready for a fun supper with friends! I have to admit, there is no way I…
