Stripes and Dots.
Dots and Stripes.
Skirt refashioned from this dress: I wore HERE but permanently refashioned it last night so it is a skirt forever.
I really loved this outfit today. But, I think it was the good hair day that was the cherry on top.
MY! This week has flown by, it's already Thursday, chickens. I mentioned on Twitter that I am seriously considering a FULL MONTH (October) of a SHOPPING BAN for myself. Anyone want to be my sponsor? I probably won't wake you up from sleep with urgent calls for the TJ Maxx clearance section.... Probably.
The thing is... I just need to take it easy because I don't think I really NEED any more clothes right now.
I am going to focus on refashioning items I already have for the upcoming season--like this dress!
Easier said than done, howevs.
The one exception to said ban would be anything Halloween costume related... that's gotta happen.
I love Halloween, but I hate pumpkin pie.
Go figure.

Good hair days are the absolute best! =) You look lovely, as always!
ReplyDeleteI'm always impressed by people who manage to refashion items. I've tried to do it a handful of times, but my skills with the sewing machine are all sorts of special (i.e. limited to the extreme) so on each occasion my efforts failed spectacularly. =P
I LOVE the dots and stripes! =) I'm building up the courage to mix patterns. I just don't want to look like I was dressed by a four-year-old. hehe

Wow....that IS good hair!!! I love god hair days. Don't look too closely at my blog, though because I haven't had many of them lately. That dress turned skirt is awesome - I think it makes a much better skirt, anyhow. I wish I had the nerve to do some pattern mixing, but I just haven't gotten there yet. I want to...but, alas...I haven't.

ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable outfit. I love that you put that sweater over the dress. Great change to make a super cute outfit.
ReplyDeleteI love how you refashioned the dress. The outfit is so cute. We can sponsor each other. No shopping!! I don't need anything new either. I had plenty to wear.
ReplyDeleteBek this is super awesome combination!!!
ReplyDeletelove love Em
I LOVE this. I never wear skirts, which makes it tough for me to create looks like this, because layering patterns never has the effect of wearing them together but, you know, not ON TOP of one another. I adore this look on you!
