I first saw this refashion on another blog and I just had to make one for me! Click here I used her tutorial as a guideline with some slight modifications and more measurements (I just wanted to make sure the dress covered my bum and wasn't super tight!!)
First I started with a long 1X skirt I got at goodwill for maybe $3
Through a series of measurements and some simple cutting I had this dress!
The skirt was the perfect length for a dress that is appropriate for work. And the waistband was the perfect width for kind of wider neckline.
Click here for my tutorial and blog with numbers on how to cut, etc. I can be found here at the Adventures of Lauren with all my sewing and craft sheningans. ;)
Happy Tuesday everyone!
