I wish I had made this whole dress.

I picked this little vintage masterpiece up at Misred (a really sweet buy/sell/trade store downtown that carries primarily vintage clothing) for only $20! It was originally a knee length dress but I can't do those for some reason so I hemmed it a little shorter. It was one of my lazy days and I sewed it quite uneven. I ended up liking the way it turned out. The wavy hem line gives it some character though we can all see it doesn't need much more of that!

And I don't know how this is possible but I just discovered ASOS. And their $6 flat rate shipping to the U.S. I scored these babies from them.

Hearts

I went to JoAnns in search of a fabric I could use for a little project (which I will be posting soon) and instead I ended up making this tank top first. I honestly got pretty carried away in the store and filled with ideas for future creations.

This adorable scalloped heart trim was already curved which made it extremely easy to add to the collar of this white tank.
