DIY: Mini Floral Dress

When I was a little girl, I hated wearing dresses. I was a tomboy. I thought dresses were for girly girls and flower dresses were for super girly girls. Oh how things change as you grow older. Mini-floral dresses are everywhere this summer. The mini floral prints are the perfect in between boring solids and gaudy flower prints.

Every store I go into has their own version of the dress.

Urban Outfitters and Nordstrom have these dresses for $48.



Mine is $2.99 + tax. It's a pink/purple mini-floral dress with elastic waist and camouflage pockets!

DIY: Party Dress

I've worn more dresses this year than ever before. They're so much fun and feminine.
It's a lot easier than coordinating the top and bottom too. I don't like strapless dresses, because it makes me feel too exposed. However, I'm a big fan of one shoulder dresses, and they are totally in this year. Combined that with bright and bold colors.


I found this pink woven fabric for $2.99/yrd. I bought 1 1/2 and I only used 3/4 yrd.
I can't wait to go out in this.
