Promenade Lemonade


When life gives you lemons, dressing well is the best revenge!



McCalls 5655 knock off of Anthropologie's $198 Ice Memory dress sewed up beautifully in Jo-Ann's "Chili Pepper Red" raw silk-y shantung, using the reverse shiny satin side for the bow. We added 6 inches in length split above and below the waist. L is 6'4" in those shoes! Loved the shoulder shaping. It's a perfect dress in any fabric for any social event

  2. She's 6'1" -- and not afraid to wear heels when given the chance. Especially when school uniform regulations require shoes with 1" heel or less!
