i believe in reincarnation... ok not really, just for clothes....
this Muumuu was meant to be a pretty dress in another life... she has been waiting a long time for the make-over that she really deserved...
thank you Cynthia Rowley for these pretty patterns...
{and Joanns for having the dollar Simplicity pattern sale}
this pattern was pretty straight forward... mine has no pockets but that's just because my Muumuu was out of scraps, sleeves were more important than pockets... {on second thought, i should have just used the brown fabric for the pockets! DARN IT! learning as i go people...} i also altered the neck line just a smidge...
you know i am wearing Target Tights... i am an addict
i just have one question for you....
what is Nicole Richie doing wearing my Muumuu as a scarf!
(i found this pic on Sweeties blog, the vintage queen, cutest shoes EVER and such a talented stylist! check her out!)

ReplyDeleteIs so beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you can still put the pockets, you have just to open the seam a little, these pocket can be done with any fabric, you can use beige fabric to do them:-)
Wow Selina that is amazing!! I'm so impressed by your transformation! Lol, except now that i'm pregnant the original muumuu also looks good! Help me!
ReplyDeleteAHHH! I love that dress! That is SOO cute! Would it be hard to do a tutorial just on the ruffle neck part?
