Another Refashioned Favorite

Last night I finally altered this skirt I love how it came out, please excuse the ugly gym clothes and socks and red shoes hahaha. As you can see I had already marked it and was about to cut it out when I suddenly remember to take a before picture.
I don't think I'm going to do Black Friday this year, I don't like overcrowded places and buying in a rush just doesn't seem that appealing to me, I will probably make a stop though to buy things for my son.
Outfit Details: 100% thrifted (finally!)
Shirt: Coldwater Creek 
Skirt: Homemade but altered by me
Belt: Gap
Shoes: MichelleD

Descubrí tu blog hace unos días y ciertamente me gusta el contenido y tu estilo. El llamado modesty style, me encanta. Creo que es elegante.

Ohhhh, how I wish I could wear skirts like this. SIGH.

How is your Thanksgiving break? Do you use a tripod to take your pictures?

The skirt looks great! I love how you chopped it off from the top and created a new waist band, then you didn't lose any of the great fullness at the bottom!

Hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving!

Gracias Xavi =)
Thank you ladies, and yes Lyddie I did chop the top to keep the fullest part at the bottom, I think it came out pretty good.

Chandra I have a tripod but I rarely use it, I just place my camera over my kleenex box that's on my dresser hehe I like this part of the house because it's got the best lighting, the rest f my house is too dark.

I love the skirt! So, for a sewing novice like me, how do you create a waistband?

This turned out so nice!

The last skirt I tried to 'refashion' wound up in the trash after I cut it just a little too short. Oops! I guess it takes practice, and I was glad I'd bought it at Goodwill! ;)
