 
Whoever is leaving all these amazing dresses in my thrift stores - I can't thank you enough! This one I made into a high-waisted skirt, because the top part had a whole boob-tube thing going on - which I do not do.
I also made this blouse all nice with some DIY - all I did was sew two lengths of black ribbon underneath each collar bit, but it has totally transformed the top. Who knew that I would get bored of peter pan collars? Well, this is a neat way to revitalise them.
Wearing:
Skirt - Vintage & DIY
Blouse - Wholesaledress & DIY
Tights - c/o Oasap
Belt - Vintage
Hat - Wholesaledress
Shoes - Yesstyle
Hope you're all feelin' fine and dandy!

love it and how it all matches. I'm very jealous of all your finds from your op shop. the ones in my town are pretty lacking in anything decent. I love peter pan collars so much, I think when I'm older my wedding dress shall have one.

ReplyDeleteSO CUTE! You're wearing a skirt similar to mine in my newest outfit post! I am envious of your international access to Peter Pan collars! How you've altered this top is pretty awesome.
