About a year ago, I bought a dress a Goodwill, which I later decided was unattractive. It was all boob on the top, but an awkward matronly length on the bottom.

After reading a tutorial on Emily’s blog, I decided this dress was destined for a different future and with my Grammie’s help transformed it into this:

• skirt: thrifted and made over
• shirt: Polo Ralph Lauren (thrifted)
• shoes: Old Navy (thrifted)
• scarf: thrifted
• belt: Banana Republic (thrifted)
• sunglasses: Betsey Johnson (via Marshalls)
• button bobby: self made

I’m happy to report that, with the exception of my sunglasses and jewelry, everything I’m wearing is thrifted! Hooray!

And here’s my photographer (and stylish!) mom:
