Car Wear - Working Over Old Goods to Make New

What a messed up background, packing is hell on the house hold and truly I don't think I have a blank wall to keep it calm.

This week I've spent lots of great creative energy getting my car clothes ready.

I sourced some fantastic second hand rose clothing to restyle /refit and do up for me to wear traveling.

 Double trouble T shirt skirt and tie trim top

 2X top brought way down to size with a hand dyed silk ribbon weaving and tuck twist.

Grey sparkle top increased in size by splitting the back and inserting trim bottom, adding a metal and cotton mesh trim, you crinkle it and it stays crinkled

Skirt got an added dot bottom , top got a silk tie trim and tucks

Double twist wrap to keep warm if needed

 Cute polka dot top got a shirring on the side

 2 dresses became one

 Little peasant dress with wonderful embroidery I'll wear with petticoat OR knit gauchos

Other side of skirt and pieced to enlarge beaded top.

NOTE: These were staged on my tiny dummy, I fill things out a little more voluptuously.

LOL!

Comfort in the car.... I need it.
