Sweater: Secondhand
Tank: Thrifted, $1.50
Skirt: Thrifted, $0.75
Earrings: Gift
Belt: Secondhand
Sandals: Walmart, $10
Bracelets: DIYed
I love that midi skirts aren't going anywhere this year. I think they look really cool and they are so comfortable. I found the one I'm wearing at a thrift store on sale for $0.75! If you look closely you can tell that there are monkeys on it! I don't really wear animal print, but animals on a print? YES! I love finding such cool and unique pieces at the thrift store. I know people disagree with this, but I think it looks really rustic and awesome to mix neutral colors. Black, white, and brown all together might not be your taste, but I like it. I hope you have enjoyed this post. Thanks for stopping by my blog! -Zoe

OOTD: Peplum and Polka Dots
Top: Walmart clearance, $1 (score!)
Jeans: Walmart clearance, $7
Shoes: Walmart, $10
Necklace: DIYed
As you can tell I'm pretty much wearing head to toe Walmart, what'ch ya gonna do? The top I'm wearing, I think is meant to be a dress, but not on a giant like me. I really like how it defines my waist, and goes out in an A line. It's very comfortable, and faltering. I made this necklace a few years ago using yoyos (fabric circles) and I love how cute it makes a plain-ish outfit. Let me know what you think in the comments, and have a great day! -Zoe

DIY: How To Take In A T-shirt Dress
So, I found this T-shirt dress at the thrift store for $2. It's a little baggy at the top, but the bottom fits well, and I thought I could just take it in. If you want to see how just keep scrolling.
The fist thing to do is, cut off the sleeves. (sorry for the out of focus photo)
Cute the sleeves open and set them aside. We'll deal with them later.
Find a shirt that fits you well, and has a similar stretch. It helps to have a sleeveless one, but if you can't find one, just fold the sleeves in, and use is as your pattern. (again sorry about that photo)
Now for the sleeves. Put it up to the new arm hole, and cut off the extra.
Sew it back onto the dress, then pin and sew up the sides. (I used my serger, but you could also use a standard machine)
And that's it! This dress is super comfortable, to just wear with some sandals in the summer. I would also wear it with boots, leggings and a big scarf, for the fall. I hope this was helpful. Have a great day!-Zoe

This is one of my favorite skirts. It's super fun to twirl in, as you can see. I wore my hair down, and paired it with these cool modern sandals, so I wouldn't look too granny. Have a great day! -Zoe

When I saw this Tee at the thrift store, I just thought it was so cute, with the little bug eyed fashion people. This skirt is super comfortable, and I think maxi skirts with graphic tees, is a really cool chill look for this summer. I will/have been definitely rocking that look.
