Happy alterations!

Today I was digging through my closet trying to find something cute to wear to school.  I have been hoarding this dress for about 10 years now and it has never really fit me (too big in the bust, too small in the waist). 

So I tried it on out of curiosity and VOILA!  Waist fit like a glove (thank you spin class) and with some minor alterations in the bust, I now have a sweet 60's dress perfectly tailored to me. 

Finding my love of vintage again...

I love the ruched waistband and covered button

The fabric is a beautifully soft cotton lawn
