Refashion: Mango Yellow

Hi lovely ladies, I'm two days away from starting school, I don't think I'm ready but ready or not here I come. Today's refashion waited patiently in my closet to be worn, I wasn't happy with the very yellow outcome but after seeing Mrs. J rock her yellow shirt I changed my mind and even more so when I wore it to Anthropologie today and I got compliments on it, so I've decided I'm going to leave it as it is (I was planning to fade the color a bit). Today the pool at my friend's house awaits. Have a great weekend!

That color is just perfect! I'm always on the search for a pretty yellow blouse - I don't know why I never thought of just dyeing one. That is a fantastic idea and it turned out great!
