Blue Floral Mini Dress


This is a dress of my mother from some years ago. I'm sure your mom or lolas have plenty of dresses like this. It's time to bring them back to the 21st century! it's a simple refashioning. First, I remove things I don't like. The shoulder pads, the sleeves and it's length have to go. Then I sew the sleeves and seam the new hem.

It's as simple as..

Now, I have a mini dress that's perfect for semi-casual occasion (like going to the church!) :)


PS
I know it's not the "best" refashioning I have here in my blog. But I really want to encourage everyone to do refashioning too. In this small act of recycling clothes, we help save money, help minimize the waste, and we declutter our homes. That's just my point of view. So hope that inspire you! :)
