Vintage Remake Ruffle Collar Dress


Hello FRUMPMEISTER! Yes, my mother laughed at me when she saw me pick up this black beauty. I probably look like I could be a sister wife in this get up or Carrie's mother (scary, I know).

But a few snips here and there and she was ready for a night on the town or rather a three hour church service ;)

How 'bout an uncropped photo for ya! I guess I don't pay my photographers enough.

I love the round collar and the awesome thing is the ruffle is detachable so if I want to kick this dress up a notch with a cool necklace I totally can in a snap-or a few buttons ;).
Dress, Vintage: $1.00
Shoes, Isaac Mizrahi: $1.00
Belt: $1.00
Earrings: Target $3.00
OUTFIT TOTAL: $6.00

Thrifty Thursday: Refashionista

I was thrifting at the Salvation Army with my mom recently and came across this vintage beauty. My mama thought I was nuts, but I think the "after" has persuaded her that you can upcycle many a vintage dud. For a dollar why not try?!?!
Check out my sweet pumps! Yup one whole dollar, but the lace is black not navy :*(
Here it is with some sandals. I got the cherry red vintage necklace at a different thrift store for dollar. Belt was .50 cents at the SA. Sandals were a dollar or cheaper?
OUTFIT TOTAL $3.50
