I purchased this "schoolmarm"(thats what hubby calls dresses this length) dress on black friday for a buck. Since I had a free 30 minutes to myself the other day I was able to pull out the sewing machine and shorten the hem.
Transformed!
I then layered it with another black friday find. This blazer was $3.
Add thrifted belt and Gap ballet flats. Both $1.00 each ...
Voila!
BTW if you wanna see other thrifters finds or just need someone to tell you that your need to thrift is normal, check out Shanas Blog. Shes an awesome enabler :)
