I believe so. As if I weren’t already obsessed enough with transformations, here I go with even more of an excuse: Time.
Time- that luxury we crave. The obsession of never having enough of it. Well, now that we are forced to making some…we start packing it all in. I’ve mentioned before how we gotta be careful with this feeling of always needing to be busy- READ that Article here.
This time however, I won’t be blaming myself for induging in compulsive behaviour, I’m just gonna blame it all on Covid. Or rather…my personal cure to stop-obsessing about Covid! How do I do that? I re-style, re-purpose, re-love, re-wear, re-fashion my clothes!
I’m getting a clearer vision of what it is I want to wear; what I need to wear; what I feel happy wearing- and then: Out come the scissors!
This time I’ve changed up an animal print, turtle-neck dress…into a Cardi! But there’s more! I’ve incorporated a scarf (just in case I want that option), and a turban (or headband) as well!
Wanna see how I worked this DIY and styled the whole look? You can watch the process here:

#Confessionoftheday: My compulsion is real. But it’s healthy, right?

Oh how fun! I love the way you completely transformed that dress! It’s so cute and more versatile now!
Thanks! Yes- it’s now a cardi!
You will get so much more use out it now! And the scarf just elevates the piece too. SO GOOD!!

Exactly, Shauna- I think so too! Thanks xx
Such a great idea! Much more versatile now and looks so good as a cardi.
Thanks- I agree!
This is very cool and creative! Will have to remember this before I donate something next time: can I repurpose it?

Oh that’s too kind- Thank you! It’s really so simple and fun!
You have a great eye for changing up a piece! I love how it turned out and the addition of the scarf!

I loved doing it- thanks so much! The scarf is the best part I think also!
Great job! I consider myself creative/musical, but I am not a crafty person! YOu have the eye for transforming your clothes. I love how you made the dress a jacket and it looks wonderful. I love red with leopard and the scarf is a perfect print for it.
thanks for linking!

Oh that means so much to me coming from such an Uber fashionista like you! Thank you!! It’s so simple though once you start altering- especially when you are already a creative.
