Di-Cupcakeification

I finally got the black Jill Stewart dress that I had ordered from Ebay and loved it! The top was super cute with its strapless, large bow detail.


But the one problem is that I kind of looking like...well...a cupcake going to a funeral :(



The bottom was super poofy and no matter now much I tried to tame the beast it was a losing battle. The tulle that was attached to the lining giving it its body just had to go.


Thankfully, it was a quick fix. I broke out my stitch ripper and went to town removing the tulle stitch by stitch.


It only took 5 minutes and the result was pretty dramatic.


No more cupcake gone wild- This dress is ready to party! For a $30 Ebay purchase I am pretty happy with the end product:)
