Our newest entries into Project ReStyle come all the way from philadelphia! This super cute oversized vintage dress to cute mini dress had me itching for a good thrift/sewing session. Inspiring, no?
This Suede skirt to a purse ReStyle is so amazing! I love the idea of making a purse from an oversized skirt. The tassels are so pretty too!
Special Thank yous to Veronika of Tick Tock Vintage for whipping up these inspiring ReStyles. XO, Elsie
Woweee- some brilliant transformations there. What cleverness!

LOVE the purse! I'm going to take a class on modifying clothing soon. Once I have some sewing tricks at hand, I'll be fixing up all of my unwearables!

Wow that dress restyle is AMAZING. It inspires me to get out to the thrift stores and not look past a piece just because it's not in my size.

Holy cow, that bag is beyond impressive. Very pretty, and makes me wish my seamstress skills were much further along then they currently are. So cute.
Great job!

Great makeovers! I made handbags out of thrifted leather skirts and jackets too. I love breathing new life into things!
