This next dress I remade gave me a country feel because of the designs on the fabrics. When I started on this dress it didn't take me long because I already knew what I wanted to change and other ideas came as I was cutting on the dress. I would say it took me three steps to fix the dress up. The first step I cut the dress length, I would say I cut off about 10 to 12 inches. Second step I cut the sleeves off easy right and the last step was I cut strips into the dress at the end of the dress . Check out the dress and let me know what you think, we added a gold small belt along with gold sparkle sandals.
I am just trying to share what I have learned over the years to others with a sense of style and I just want to help people dress successful! I am also not perfect but I do love helping others in need. Have a lovely day!

Turquoise
I think I have really tested my skills this time. I took a dress that my sister said reminded her of Medea, you know Tyler Perry plays because it was padded and well let just say really padded lol. Well after my trimming the length, cutting the sleeves and adding elastic where the padding and collar use to be. So check out my creation and let me know what you think. Have a blessed day!! And to make this outfit even more classy just add a black blazer or something with more close to make the turquoise pop. Oh check out www.clintoncharlie.com to check out some cool out of this world pants. I am already hook because of the style of the jeans. So check them out!

Purple
This week I recreated a dress into a lovely top. As I do with ever dress I cut off a certain amount at the bottom of the dress that is the length of my height. This time I didn't do that because I cut too much off, but it still turned out great. The only thing I did this time was cut the dress 5 to 10 inches off and shorten the arm straps. Check the picture to see what I did. Let me know what you think.

Pink
The first dress I redesign that I got from the thrift store is the pick one with long sleeves and lengthy. So what I did is cut the sleeves off and shorten the length of the dress and added buttons to fill in the empty space at the bottom of the dress and VIOLA! It is done. Check the picture out and let me know what you think.

New Project in Motion
So I went to the thrift store last week and I thought to myself...hmm fashion. What can I do with these clothes that I have just bought? I could cut here or trim here. If you would like to see what I will be doing with the clothes that I bought because they caught my eye. And the only reason why I am changing them up because I never buy clothes that are my size, they are either too big or too long, but the best about buying clothing that doesn't fit is you get to put put your one style on it. So check back each week until I am finish with the last piece. Here are the pictures of the clothes before I put my magic touch on it:
Before I finish I did keep the jacket the way it was I just dress it up up and I will show you the picture. Let me know what you think

Shoe Crave
So today I went into one of my favorite stores today and saw these gorgeous low price shoes and you know what I did, I brought them. The pair of shoes cost me around 19 dollars, I am such a good shopper when it comes to spending money. Some people like to just spend money on the first thing they see, which I do sometimes but I always try to talk myself out of it because I never want to spend no more than 40 dollars on a par of shoes that want last or I might not wear them but only one time. This might not happen often depending on the shoe, so check my shoes and tell me what you think. They are light brown open toe and a strip to go around the ankle.
