165 Days to Go: $1 Remake
I swiped this up as soon as I saw the sleeves!! I had my very own kimono in my hands, plucked from a pile of old vintage tossaways for just $1. Yep, I was pretty stoked with my find!!
Day 165 - Before
I’m not going to keep it robe length – I have too many robes to begin with and this one deserves some public attention, so I’m hopping on the kimono jacket train like French Connection…

Forever 21's Silky Kimono Jacket - $13.99 (on sale from $27)
…and the always fashionable Cat Deeley (PS, can’t wait for SYTYCD!!)…

Jason Sudeikis dancing is the best
Week 7: Patricia
I went with the stripes for today!! Patricia in TN sent this purdy piece my way…
Howdy Marisa!!
I came across this piece while cleaning out my closet!! I remember wearing this some years back (more like many years back, lol) and just loving the print at the time. I’ve outgrown it and instead of bringing it to Goodwill, I’m mailing it to you, my Goodwill pen pal! Have fun with it! Patricia

I love the stripes, but this just needed a bit of a face lift!
Week 16: Marisa
So today’s piece comes from my personal collection of…
SWEATSHIRTS!! I’ve got a ton of old sweatshirts – ones from college, from my high school field hockey team, from random visits to to Washington DC during my youth (that sweatshirt is vintage glory and will have to show its face soon), so I wanted to use one of these guys for today.
I was inspired by a Forever 21 sweatshirt I saw a few weeks ago and thought this could be just the thing to glam up an old one from my collection.
Sweatshirt Inspiration!
Rhinestones on sweatshirt – easy and cute!
Week 16: Ryan
When this piece came in from Ryan in Cheyenne, WY, I knew that I could make it totally party worthy. I mean, it was gold…you can’t really go wrong with a metallic party dress, right?
“I thought this dress could be turned into something really great. The color and material are nice and it has definite potential. There is a blackish spot on the front that you could hide with something or just cut off. I’m excited to see what you do with it and where you wear it!”
Week 16: Ryan - Before
There were some stellar shoulder pads in this dress, and that black dot was pretty apparent on the front of the dress.
SPOT!!
This is going to be the dress to ring the new year in!! Let’s get cutting…
