Circus Blouse

I picked up this blouse at Buffalo Exchange recently for $4 on the clearance rack.

Circus Blouse Refashion - Before

As disturbing as I find clowns to be, I was strangely drawn to this print with its creepy clowns, juggling ballerinas, unicycling jesters, and prancing ponies.

I chopped off the sleeves and used some bits of lace salvaged from an old bra to cover a couple stains on the yoke.

No more stains!

I've styled it with a black pencil skirt (refashioned) and wide black belt (thrifted), as well as my Calvin Klein nude and black wedges (DSW clearance).
