Rit Dye Clothes Transformations

Here are a few of my favorite transformation pieces from the Rit Dyeing party. Even though I don't look nearly as cute or have the set up Melissa does for her fashion blog...I tried my best to show off a few outfits and attempt to be a fashion model for a day.

I got this top at Target about 3 years ago. It was originally white and I loved the little puff sleeves. I wore the top in my pregnancy photos and the shirt hit me about mid belly {under the dress}. I don't know what it is, but I loved my clothes from my pregnancy. Most of them weren't actually pregnancy clothes and I can still wear them now, they just need a little pick-me to make me not feel pregnant when I put them on.

Ombre Cover-up for the pool. I love the wine color. I stole this ombre idea from Melissa and she helped me with the technique. The cover-up use to be cream and the stitching stayed true to its original cream color. I am not sure why the stitching on most of my fabrics didn't take to the dye? Hummmm. I'll have to think on that one. With a large tub to work in the ombre technique worked great.

I got this skirt at Anthropologie about 4 years ago. It was baby pink and perfect for spring. I also wore this my whole pregnancy because of its elastic waist band. Now, it feels like a whole new skirt! I love the coral color. It looks great on and goes with more shirts in my closet.

One more outfit. A few years back I bought this skirt in white. It was on clearance at Anthropologie for $5. I knew one day I would love to change the color. This orange is perfect for fall and matched with this fab teal sweater...I can hit the church streets this Fall.

Strawberry Hat

As you all know, I turned 30 last month and my wonderful talented friend Jeanette asked me what I wanted for my Birthday. I told her I wanted her to knit me a strawberry hat!! While hanging out together on the Fourth she finished it! I couldn't be happier: the colors, the stem, the curl at the bottom. P.S. Jeanette does not have a blog, although she should. The world would be a better place if she did.

Tea Garden Skirt

It has been crummy weather the last several days with the sun barely peeking out over the clouds. I am beginning to worry about my flowers (not getting enough sun) and feel like the sun might now show itself for my birthday, very sad.

On to happy thoughts and speaking of birthdays; this is a busy birthday-celebrating month for many family and friends and one particular friend is turning ONE!

And I just had to make her a little something!
