yougurt land

dress: thrifted (refashioned)
heels: Shoe carnival
belt: thrifted


i love this!!  i wanted something with ruffles...i really like ruffles, okay?  haha probably half of my projects have ruffles.  so anyways...i decided to do a ruffle that started at the neckline and went down the middle of the dress.  i love it!  i think it looks really great with he belt! i also added sleeves!!  im getting pretty good at it too!  oh and would you guys like a tutorial on how to add sleeves?   and if you guys have any tutorial requests i would LOVE for you to share them!!

so this was actually what i wore yesterday...shame on me! haha.  after loys got home from work we went to yogurt land...on a DATE!!  its been a long time since Ive heard that word! haha anyways.  um why have i not been there before??  its like the best place in this world!!  not even kidding!  so pretty much its self serve and first you choose which icecream flavor you want and then you pile on the toppings and you weigh it!  its as simple as that!

i got a pineapple and dragon fruit mix for the ice cream and then piled fruit on it!  it was oh so good!  oh and see that little pink ball? yes, no?  anyways its sooo good its like a strawberry flavored ball of juice that bursts in your mouth!  i think that's the best way i can describe it haha.

so last night i kept on having nightmares about going back to school.  i was stressing out that i had a paper dew the next day and that i woke up late and had no way to get to school.  i did not like it...not one bit!

p.s. ill try not to take so many pictures next time...sorry!  oh and tomorrow i will be doing something a little different...i will give you a hint its not ME that will be posting...and its not another blogger

  14. It looks great! I have a dress I bought at Banana Republic last year that looks almost exactly like this except I bet I paid a lot more for it than it cost you to make. Jealous!
