There truly is nothing like finding a gem while thrifting. I was so exited when I came across this beauty that when I saw it I just had to have it. The best part about the dress was it was a whopping $15.00 and still had the original tags attached to it, which it so happened to be a genuine SAX dress :) Triple score!! I bought it in hopes to find a reason to wear it and for my cousin to wear it for homecoming next year, however there is always a silver lining. The dress was too small. Words do not express how heart broken I was. My husband was able to zip the back of it, but not one single breath could be taken.
Say hello to my refashion model Jessie :)
She an walk, run and BREATH in this dress!
This dress is just adorable! I really hated to cut it up, but I also couldn't watch it sit and never be worn due to it not being "wearable"
Isn't she the cutest!!
Okay so like I said I didn't want to do too much to change the overall style of the dress just a little "update". I think that it's important to not takeaway it's personality especially sine it is a vintage piece. It's hard to tell in the picture, but the dress is made of silk underneath and lace with gold hints on top.
After...
I loved how this dress turned out. I know I say that about all my refashions but I literally almost fainted at goodwill when I saw the price on this dress, so it's kinda got a soft spot in my heart.
See the gold hints? Love it!
RAWR!! loving the blue nail polish..hehe
Okay so this dress is for sale. I usually do not sell any of my refashions but given the fact that I cannot wear the dress and breath at the same time is a bit of a problem, so if your interest just shoot me an email :)
