Wannabe Wednesday: Procrastination Edition

ReFashion Show at SHE Columbia!

Yeah!  Wannabe Wednesday!

Woo.

Ugh.

I’m one tired ReFashionista, my friends!  My life is a series of endless fittings, dyeing, and stitchery!  I really want my first ever ReFashion Show to be something special!

But I still need to keep myself clothed as well!  This week’s inspiration piece comes from Madewell.

The dress will cost you $140...but the daffy expression on her face is truly priceless.

I’m clearly in no position to judge the daft look on that model’s face:

Seriously.  This is what I look like at 6am.  :/
I’ve seen better mug shots. :/

Anywho…this was a super-quick one, friends.

All I needed was a little chop!

Just a lil chop!

The bottom scrap became a sash to get my waist all nice & cinched! Now I have a new dress to wear while making a BUNCH of other new dresses!

Can you tell it's windy outside?

I did get a good bit of work done, but then I got hungry.  It was around 2:30 when my buddy Alex and I planned on meeting for lunch.  Then I got a speeding ticket (my first in 4 years!  Ugh!)  Then the restaurant we met at had already closed its kitchen.  Then we went to the Cock n’ Bull Pub (which used to be my first apartment!) and everything really went downhill.  Their kitchen had closed as well and I was pretty bummed about getting a speeding ticket…so we had a pint.  Then an eccentric former CIA agent (or so he said…I doubt they’re supposed to tell people that) paid for them.

So we had another pint (we wanted to support this small business).

Numero Dos.

Then we were offered samples of this tasty goodness:

Tastes like cotton candy!

The lovely bartendress told me she reads my blog!  🙂

Will I manage to stay out of cute neighborhood pubs for the rest of this week?

Will I get everything done in time for the big show?

Stay tuned!  🙂
