oh today felt good, doing nothing and sleeping in really late.
i was planning to clean my room but then i got lazy
i did find time to alter my thrifted clothes
and wash them because my hadn't washed them yet 
i thought i might as well do it and plus she was busy too. 
here's the alterations, 
sorry the pictures don't have a clear view of the dresses
i cropped my head out because i hadn't taken a shower yet
so my hair was greasy and i haven't brushed it yet either

i bought this dress without trying it on 
and i knew the waist was tiny 
but it had buttons so i thought i could squeeze into it 
but yeah i went home 
and try to put it on but the buttons didn't go down far 
for me to squeeze into the dress
so i bummed because i didn't know what to do 
then i decided to chop the dress in two 
so now i have a blouse/jacket
and a high waisted skirt
and if i want to wear a dress 
i could wear the jacket over the skirt 
so things worked out good in the end. 

this is the dress from two posts ago 
so go there if you want a clearer picture 
it looks so much better shorter and with short sleeves
i was going to get rid of the drop waist but i got lazy.
also my mum got me those stocking with the fleece lining
and oh dear it is so warm 
now i can wear as many dresses/skirts in winter. 

btw the black jacket pictured two posts
shrunk heaps while i washing it 
i was rinsing the water out and realized 
"hmmm, is it me or is it smaller?"
so i put it on while it was still damp 
and it had shrunk so so much 
it used to be pretty loose
i think the sleeves shrunk 
so now its 20cm shorter, 
its so weird because i handwashed it too
i'm a bit annoyed because i didn't want it to be so fitted
because i already have a fitted jacket.

sorry for the bad quality photos, 
i think blogger makes them worse. 



Love squealer
