One of the most popular topics on ProbablyRachel.com is refashioning clothing, I’m often asked how I learned to sew and aside from learning how to hem a pair of pants and sew on a button, I never really was taught anything else. I watched my mom sew from time to time, but I think there’s a part of my refashioning that’s inherited – genetically speaking.
My mom is a very creative lady and I’m sad to say I didn’t realize that fact before I became an adult. Today’s refashion is hers and she graciously allowed me to share it.
Mom started with a peach chiffon dress with a hi-lo hem and crazy black accents that she didn't want.

After:

It definitely looks better with the softer contrast, the black is a bit harsh!
From kinda 80s to quite classic and timeless!
You go, Mom!
