Vintage Slip Upcycle
About a month ago I found this vintage lace slip that I fell in love with but wasn't sure how to make it fit me or how to wear it. I contemplated cutting the slip apart but some of you suggested I leave it as it is and wear a long sweater over it. Well today I found just the right sweater. I obviously had to sew in the bust of the slip a bit because I wasn't blessed with an overabundance in that area. I was a bit worried when I first started sewing but the slip turned out to fit very well and looks really cute under this sweater. And the bonus is that the sweater was also a thrift store find.

LOVE IT!!! I was talking about a cardigan, not even thinking about this type of sweater, but now that I see it I'm in love. Great job on your thrift store finds lady!
Thanks Evan, I was looking for a cardigan but I had no luck. This worked!
You are amazing! The sweater accentuates the beauty of the slip and of course you are amazing in it. How beautiful.
Good find!
