Pretty fabric
Chop chop
New sleevesI used the excess fabric cut away from the bottom of the dress to make casing for the waistline, stitched inside the dress, with 'button holes' for a drawstring (also made from the same fabric) to pull through at the front.
And here it is:
Granny chic?I knew the fabric would be a little sheer, but until I looked at this photograph, didn't realise quite how much! Definitely needs a slip worn underneath.
My husband isn't so sure of this refashion. Maybe the colour doesn't suit my skin tone? What do you think?

I would consider unbuttoning that very top button Then I think you should pair it with some cute heels some funky chunky bracelets and wear it ALL SUMMER LONG. Super sweet dress, you did a nice job.
I like it a lot, actually (guys don't always know what's what)! The only thing I would have done differently would be remove the collar and make it a V-neck, but that's only because I have a short neck and don't like collars on me. :) -Jillian
It's fabulous!! Colour suits you perfectly. I would probably have changed the collar too though. Maybe remove it and have a simpler neckline...hmmm. You got me thinking now!!

Ok so I already commented on your blog, but I still think it's cute. If the color is possibly the issue and you don't want to dye it, you could re-do the collar in a different color OR wear a necklace in a color that suits you better. I find that color only really matters when it's near my face. Thus: yellow skirts. :)
I agree with previous comments. I like the colour but and not 100% sure on the neckline.
It definitely suits you.

I like the dress. It's very spring-like. I know some guys don't like floral (including my husband) so I wouldn't take that comment personally.
