Sweden's blue dots


There hasn't been a more beautiful time to be inspired by sweet blue dots! The summer sun has been absolutely incredible lately, making me want nothing more than to lay outside and take it all in. This goofy wetseal dress was passed down to me a long time ago but I just couldn't make it work, it was ridiculously stretched out, worn, with sparkly blue buttons...but certainly well loved. And understandably so, the fabric is light and sweet, I just couldn't let it go to waste. After browsing through many 40's vintage skirt patterns, you know just for fun...my inspiration for this upcycle was born!

How I did it:
Removed top piece
Folded over a new waistline hem
Created front pleats
Added vintage buttons!!
