Or I do, at least.
This mu-mu, as my mom calls it has been at the thrift store for a while and today, I just couldn't leave without it.
It's fairly small, really- but a mu-mu, still. I can't help but be drawn to the giant pink and purple flowers against rich green and bright turquoise.
I belted it to give it a little structure and I think I would actually wear this this fall either with the boots I have on here or some other heeled shoe.
Should I crop it? Make it a blouse? Use it as a rag? I love some opinions. And don't be shy- I only paid a quarter.
I love this dress--and I love your blog. It's so great how you can get so many awesome outfits from other people's cast offs. I love vintage fabric, so my vote would be, cut it off and make a tunic out of it and save the rest of the fabric for some other use.
ReplyDeletei'm all about the mu-mu in the summer--so comfy and breezy! i think you should keep it long and make sure you drink a mai tai each and every time you wear it! ;)
ReplyDeleteShorten it to about an inch above the knee and show your lovely legs. I think that length will be a good balance to the somewhat wide neckline, plus it will be more referential to the fun print.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.....some great ideas. I'll wash it and play with it a bit, and show you what happens!
ReplyDeleteHi sweetie! Just found your blog! In my opinion, I see this a bit shorter. Either as a dress just above the knee or as a blouse. Either one would be seriously cute. Love that you thought to throw a belt into the mix :)
