I must admit, I was thinking of my Nana when I bought this dress.. maybe its a homage to her disapproval of my taste in fashion, either way, I had to have it. I'm still deciding on whether or not it is going to land on the chopping block for a sleeve removal or perhaps and extreme dress into romper makeover.. so I figured it deserved a post before its execution. Any ideas? How would you alter this dress?
Of course i couldn't help but photograph it unbuttoned.. Its kinda sexy, well of course In a granny kinda way if that's even possible. The shoulder pads are so much fun to play with and the pleats just make me feel extra girly. A nice change considering my current days are predominantly spent in board shorts and wife beaters.
Amidst all the procrastinating I did today, instead of just cleaning my makeup kit, I ended up mixing leftover blush powder with my favorite The Body Shop lip butter (almond & passionfruit ♥).. which makes for the perfect lip balm, cheek tint or highlighter. I love to recycle. What kind of makeup recycling do you do?
XoXo, dane

Lovelyy dress, it is sexy in a granny way but I feel wierd saying that lol
Ohh good make up ideaaa :)
Great make-up idea!
The dress has a pretty print and the colour looks great on you - I'd unpick the skirt and wear it as a strapless dress with a vintage belt and lacey leggings. The top could be cut-off below the bust, hemmed and worn as a retro bolero jacket. Sweet granny!
