Night two of bachelorette-dom was going to be a little more dancy, so I wanted to wear a fun top and jeans. Natalie sent this my way and I thought it would be just the fun party piece to wear on the town.

"Hey Marisa, I hope you enjoy this slip - whether you can wear it as a dress and just belt it or if you add lining to it to make it less sheer, I think you'll make better use of it than I did just sitting in my drawer. I had grand ideas, but I'm moving and trying to get rid of things as you know, so I figured that I'd let it be of use to you. Go sew..."

The best part was the hole on the seam...

...which gave me an idea right off the bat!

I started trimming the lace completely off...

...and was left with this.

I'm going to make some fluttery sleeves by adding the lace to the arms!! Before the lace was added, I ended up taking each side in about an inch before I began pinning.

Once the arms were tacked in place, I stitched the lace completely down. I did all this from home before I took off for Chi-town...

...but needed to shorten the piece to make it top worthy. Once I got to the hotel, I got cracking. I called the concierge to see about borrowing some shears and finally got a pair handed off.

Unfortch, their scissors don't like to cut through fabric, so I had to make a game time decision. Just tuck it in and ruch it out for the night. I did just that, took another hotel hallway shot, and got ready to feast at a Chicago staple with the girls.

Because we were doing a little bit of dressing up (hello feathers!!) I wanted to do a little bit of crafting for my gal LG too. I took some white and glittery purple tulle...

...trimmed into pieces, stitched to a fab plastic crown and comb...

...and added some gems and pearls to make it LG's headpiece for the evening!

And the back...

Oh, I didn't just stop there...I made some matching purple clips for the girls using some feathers and rhinestones that we added to our beads and boas.

Now we were ready.

I love pizza. I'm from NY, it's a staple, but I kind of almost lost my mind with these.

I was in cheese heaven.

If only LG's magic wand could make more of the pizza appear when I get back to LA.

We had boa shots taken around the table, and my use of the feathers as pom poms made me look kind of crazy.

We headed to The Baton after our eats for a fun drag show complete with Beyonce, Katy Perry, and Barbara Mandrell lookalikes.

No pics were allowed to be taken there, but the camera came back out when we went dancing after the show. We had little notebooks filled with activities to complete and the bride got on it right away.

Get a pic with a bachelor party, check! Get picked up by one...that wasn't part of the activity!

We literally danced our faces off - the DJ kept playing jam after jam after jam and I think by the end of the night we worked off all those pizza calories :)

We even came across a group who were trying to do their own version of Diddy's Hamptons 'white party'. LG took a staple accessory from them...so bright, you gotta wear shades!
