Ever since I saw this ModCloth kitty pocket dress (here and here) I started "coveting" it. However, because I cannot afford a $367.99 dress and I don't see ModCloth sending it my way any time soon, I had to take matters into my own hands. It was a very easy to do, this thrifted skirt was the purr-fect candidate. Get it? purrfect? (silence and cricket sound) yeah...okay never mind that, let's go on to the refashion shall we? ^_^

The pocket was very easy to make, maybe I'll make a tutorial if you're interested?

Hi! I'm interested in learning how you hemmed your skirt. I have a plaid wool skirt that I would like to shorten but I'm not sure how to go about hemming it!
Yes, what Janelle said. Please, please, prettty pleeeeeeeaaaaaase.
I have the coolest red plaid (but way too long) skirt ON TOP of my stash, where it has resided since June because PLEATS SCARE ME.
Nevermind, that's ok; I'm gonna just go DO IT--make that skirt my own--cuz I wanna be like you when I grow up.
(But I'll check back later in case you tell us how you hemmed.)
I really like how you mixed the plaid with the lace.
