"And you are wearing a Halloween dress!?"
Me-"Yeah, it's Halloween for me everyday"
That was a short interaction with a customer at work, hehe! I am wearing a Hell Bunny dress that has been on the blog here and here. I was inspired to wear this dress from Jen over at Betties N' Brimstone as she was talking about a super cute bat Hell Bunny dress she owns, and how she doesn't like halter straps. I totally am with her and have modified this dress (and a few others) from halter straps into 'regular' straps as I find it more comfortable and I can wear a regular bra.
I am a true believer of modifying things to fit your comfort and taste. A little nip/tuck or hemline change or adding/subtracting whatever your heart desires to make a garment really suit YOU is always a good idea. I find if I'm not happy with fit or function, the piece just sits in my closet and that's a waste of money!
Wearing; spider web dress (Hell Bunny), shrug (Target), earrings/necklace set (gift from Melanie), bracelets (thrift), hair bow (Hot Topic), bat flats (Iron Fist)

Thank you for reading, until next time!

That's an adorable dress and I would wear it year long too. :)
ReplyDeleteThis dress is so esthetic but I could not wear something with spider prints on me. Although I managed to wear handmade stockings with a tiny purple plastic spider sewed on it. I'm getting there...
ReplyDeleteI know spiders aren't for everyone. I wouldn't wear moth's or butterflies on my clothing as I'm not a fan of them and run away when they are near me. I know, I'm odd. LOL!
DeleteUber love (and totally want! :)) this wonderful HB spiderweb print dress. Three cheers on being able to modify it to work even better for you. I hear you big time regarding halter necklines. They rarely work for me either.

I agree, halter straps suck. I have a dress I never wear for exactly that reason ... looks like I'll be throwing it into my mend/modify pile! :) Thanks for the inspiration. And you look adorable, as always!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous outfit and I love the way you've altered it to suit you!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love the Halloween comments from random people *sigh* Cute dres!
ReplyDeleteYay, great adaptation! Also great reply to the stupid question!
