Blossoms

This post is a response to a comment on last post I did before declaring my hiatus.
"wow great buys - can't wait to see the H&M zipper rose print dress, it's so cute!! Great deal on A!!!" -Rachel, from Distinct.Style
So here's that dress, from back in the spring when I wore it:



Dress: H&M, $35

Anyone miss spring already? It flew by this year. But oh well, summer's fantastic too. :)

J.Crew Refashion!

Okay, I don't want to say I'm officially and permanently back from hiatus, but I had to at least come back to share this:

Top: Made from Old Navy Tank, $2
Cardigan: Free (from friend)
Shorts: Old Navy, $12 (but I used a gift card)
Shoes: Target, $15

See that shirt? I made it yesterday, after going to the $2 Tank Top sale at Old Navy and fetching one of those white tanks. I cut up an XL white t-shirt I had lying around (I got it for free at an event), and used it to make ruffles.



Here's the inspiration for this project, a J.Crew tank that I spotted in the store:

J.Crew Outlet tank, $35
I tried it on and I loved it, but I don't buy things for full price. Instead I made my own and paid $2 instead of $35!
