Alterations...

As I mentioned a couple of posts back, we are building our house this year, which is very exciting. So as many would know, this all costs lots and so well we have to tighten our belts which is fine, but of course like many I am sure at times, I have been going through a 'I havent got anything to wear phase' or 'clothes dont seem to go with anything, moments'!! So I went through my wardrobe thoroughly, trying different things on with different belts, hats etc and keeping some things and tossing others that just 'dont work fullstop'!! These things are put aside to do a market with my daughters when the weather cools down.

Lots I have rewardrobed, and there was a handful of clothes that I decided to alter. Heres some pics of a couple of the changes..


I didnt like the huge sleeves on this tunic/dress/top, but loved the fabric, so I just cut off the sleeves and re finished the seam. See below, much better.



Below use to be a dress, but finished just above my knees, which I prefer hemlines to sit just on my knees or below, dont like my knees!! So I shortened to become a little casual top.



I also slimlined a pair of casual pants I didnt wear, they were nearly new but were so baggy, I forgot to take a before and after of these, but have worn them heaps since taking them in.

So until next time
