Today's dress was a fun one!

Totally feeling like Madonna in the 80s.

There was a LOT of lace going on!

But I think we can create something super fun with all of it!

Time to take on that lace!

I started off by trimming the sheer lace portions from the sweetheart neck and got rid of those sleeves! Next I detached the top portion of the dress from the bottom using a seam ripper.

I'm geeking out at how amazing this color turned out!

A little trip to the sewing machine came next to create new seams followed by an elastic trim attaching party to create new straps!

I paired my new pink top with a vintage floral skirt! I usually go with a more neutral top (greys, beige) when I wear this skirt, but now I'm a convert - pink it's always going to be!

The elastic straps are an awesome addition - not only do they help keep the top up, but they're super comfy.

From lace dress to a summery pink top...I think this was a floral success!
