After all your votes, it was the ruffled peach dress, for the win!!
Here's just a little teaser of how it turned out:
Full blog post to come later today, but I must say...this piece turned out gorgeous!
Regula's NDAD Creation
I received this fabulous remake from German-reader Regula and it's something that I want to make immediately!! It's starting to get colder here in Los Angeles (I just put my heat on for the first time this year!) and I'm dreaming about making myself what Regula did. For those of you out there craving a little coziness, this project will be right up your alley!!
I've been following you for quite a while. I think it's amazing how you see potential in any dress you find. I often go to thrift stores hoping to find THE THING that speaks to me: "I want to be turned into something else. Please, help me!"
Case in point...this lovely plaid flannel shirt.
Regula even draws out her plans...
I think you're going to love the outcome...check it out:
I turned a shirt into pajama bottoms!!
They are not really fashionable but I love them very much.
Old sleeves = new legs!!
It took about 20 minutes to get from shirt to pants, so go ahead! Cut, sew and wear!
Can I please have a set of these immediately!! As I prep for holidays in NC this year, flannel PJs are calling my name! Regula - thank you SO much for sharing this project with us! Such a useful way to repurpose a shirt that just wasn't getting any love anymore. Can't wait to see your next project!!

Holiday Party Dress - You Pick!!
It's holiday party weekend and I need to think wardrobe and want you guys to help!! Here are the options: #1 - Blue beaded vintage dress with a very LARGE slit up the back of the dress. Um, can this be saved???
#2 - Blue satin lace dress that doesn't stay up and has some severe underarm discoloration. YUCK!
#3 - Peach "Gone With the Wind"-esque feeling dress. The color is dreadful against my skin and I feel like a debutante :) Oh, and PS, my entire chestal region is on display.
#4 - 80s satin dress that has a mullet waist. That material is drapey and hits right at my thighs in the front, but in the back it goes longer than my knees. Party in the front and in the back for this one!
Which one do you like best??? Leave your thoughts below...
The winning pick pulled from comments here, on Twitter, and on Instagram will get the makeover for this weekend's events. Voice off below!!
