Today I did a super fast and easy transformation for the princess. She has a cute ruffle skirt in a really fun bright turquoise knit. The problem? Too much 7 year old bootie hanging out. When I told her I could see her underwear, she begged me not to get rid of it. Sigh, another "favorite" destined for the garage sale bag. I told her to go change, and she comes out wearing the skirt as a top. That's my girl. Refashion that skirt. It was a little big on top for her, so instead of adding elastic, I made some straps out of a too small tank top.

I braided 3 of the strips together for each strap, and sewed them in place. And...

Pretty cute! Now I can hold off fighting her about getting rid of it. Until her belly starts to show, at least.
