Vintage Alteration

During my trip to LA a few weeks ago, I popped into the vintage shop Buffalo Exchange and picked up this awesome dress that appears is from the 70’s. I loved the print and the color but found the length a bit strange. It was too short and desperately needed pleats at the waist, so I broke out my handy sewing machine and got busy. For good measure, I added one of my top loves….pockets and I now think this is one of my favorites.
