Snip Snip & It’s A Hit!

I do not remember where I bought this necklace, but it works perfect with the jacket!!

When my children were younger, my husband traveled more for his profession. He would always bring us a present from any significant city he visited for longer than one night. I have snow globes from New York…message Ts…jewelry….and then there was the time he returned from Las Vegas with a very large, long dress with a very large, dominant print.

I tried everything I could to make the dress look flattering…NOTHING worked. So, for a few years I wore it as a long (to the ankle) jacket. I thought it was kind of cool….but I always received some funny looks.

Last year, I noticed similar prints in several fashion magazines and suddenly felt inspired. I took out my scissors and cut it off just below the pockets…there you have it, a great jacket! I do not really sew; therefore, I needed the dry cleaners to handle the hem. Someone actually asked me once if it was a Diane Von Furstenberg piece! No, but it is one of my favorites!
