Oh that pantsuit!!!!

I found this pantsuit and got challenged to refashion it. It was a smidge too tight for a pantsuit that you would wear in public. And the color was sooooo wrong for me.

Luckily it was cotton so there was color hope. First I converted the pants portion into a skirt. which was tricky b/c it tappered. I had to add an insert. Then I tie-dyed the dress. A simple hem and then I was done! And no zippers were needed and I have pockets. yay I love pockets!

More info here.

Cheers,
Lauren

Yikes! The before shot almost makes it look like you're in your birthday suit! Skirtifying and dyeing it was definitely the right choice. Super cute now!
