Last post for the evening.
So,Vintage Vivant was supposed to be on vacation for July. Then, out of the blue it was back on with a Love on the Left bank theme. I had no clue what I was going to wear. Then I decided to do what the French did best. Lacy underthings. I turned a sad cotton sundress that I had purchased at Treasure City for a quarter into cami-bloomers. It wasn’t a difficult transformation. It was just a pain to remove the tiny pink sequins scattered all over the dress.
Before: Cotton Sundress
I located the center of the skirt front and back and cut a slit to create bloomer legs. Then I sewed the inseams together. I debated adding lace or elastic at the bottom but decided it was too much. A last minute Target run landed me some awesome stockings (one day I will make sock garters for them).
