Since it was my Birthday I figured what better way to celebrate then wearing my favorite color: PINK!
Ohh la la!
The original buttons on my dress were gold. Now, don't get me wrong I like gold, but since this rehash is all about pink I decided to change the buttons...
I switched over to these pink buttons. Like how subtle the pink buttons on the pink fabric are!
Next, it was time to get rid of those ridiculous shoulder pads!
I shortened the sleeves by 1 1/2 inches.
I went to shorten the hem length and I noticed this: someone had already done that. (I can't even imagine how long the original length was).
Shortened the hem by 2 inches.
Time to celebrate! They even decorated the house for me! What a surprise!
My bestie made me pink cupcakes!
The husband bought me a embroidery/sewing machine! Stay tuned for some more awesomeness in refashioning!!!
The Happy Birthday girl!
What a great bunch! :)
Happy Refashioning!!!
Great refashion, and happy belated birthday! Your husband is awesome because my husband gave me the same sewing and embroidering machine for Christmas last year. And I absolutely love it! I don't use the embroidery feature as much as I want, but I love love love my sewing machine. Have fun!
