Suit into Overall!

Don't you just love wearing your boyfriends/husbands/brothers clothes sometimes? Well, even better when you get them handed down, right? It was like a second Christmas when I got this grey, old-fashioned suit:


...and turned it into this cool - brown! - overall:



Finally I get to have that overall that I've been wanting ever since they started popping up on the runways one (or two?) seasons ago...


I have posted a lot more pictures on my blog Of Dreams and Seams, and I will write a two-part how-to with all the information you need if you want to try this too. First installment coming tomorrow!

All the best to you re-fashioners out there! I love this blog and all your ideas!

Nice! I'm really impressed how well it seems to fit. And it looks very cool too, of course :)

Thank you so much! Yea, I'm happy with it. Overalls are a bit fussy to fit and store-bought ones would never be right on me. So it really was worth it... Best to you all! Katja
