Shirt-dress refashion

Olive drab shirt-dress refashion, 12 March 2013


I bought this dress from a clearance merchandise outlet store for under $2! I LOVED the color and style, but it did not fit my body well at all. The waist was too low, the length was too long, and it was too large. 


(Side-note: I'm wearing red legwarmers/boot "socks" I made from the sleeves of a sweater. It's still cold here in my little part of the world!)

No matter! I took up the waist and took in the sides to fit my 5-foot frame, and here's the result:



...or the mess! I've got a few home and sewing projects in the works. What do you think? I can't wait to wear it when it warms up.
