Night on the town!

I hemmed an old choir dress for a fun girl's night with Sara Perkinson! My necklace also broke, so I tied it up with a velvet ribbon.

Valentine's Day!

With my darling friend, Emily.
My day time ensemble.
It's the only time when you can really wear pink and red together!

My evening outfit for my date with Taylor.
This is a dress I modified.
 It used to have horrendous sleeves!

Apron-dress

First off, isn't this lady the greatest? This is Lorraine, who works as a volunteer like me at the Veteran Medical Center of Long Beach. She is one of my favorite people!
I found this dress at DI, or Deseret Industries. It's a Mormon version of Good Will. Anyways, It came with a twisted strap and without any embellishments. I untwisted the strap to set it straight. I also added the trip down the front and the lace on the bottom. And of course, like most of the things I get at a thrift store, I sized it. I think it turned out cute!

Transformations!

This pink polyester dress used to have long sleeves. I transformed it into a halter dress. I love the keyhole detail.

Mini skirt transformed to a skirt suitable for church!
I wanted the scalloped edges not to be sewn down, but free. I finished the edges of it by hand and then sewed a straight line at the top to attach the bottom part of the skirt to the top.
