Tall Girl Problems: Midi Skirt Edit

So last week I posted about making a long skirt into a small skirt for a tall person, if you get me! This is the skirt folded to roughly the length that I want it to be, and there's a lot of extra fabric which is usable.

I'm Having Some Tall Girl Problems Here. Any Help?

Any ideas would be much appreciated...I bought a skirt and have no idea what to do with it!


So last week I managed to rip my only bodycon jersey skirt - you know the ones, they're sold by many of the high street giants, cost you under a tenner and are great to wear if you want your legs out* but still want to be comfy. Now this is where I have a little problem. Well, in the case of last week, then I had two.

DIY Strap Alteration

Ever thought about buying a top and was put off by the straps? Well this is the tutorial for you!


So I bought this one from a vintage shop in Sheffield last week - but I knew I could do something with the straps in a matter of minutes as I looked inside the top - some are easier than others. This one was pretty simple as the straps on this one were hand stitched to the inside of the lining. If you have to undo some seams to get to where the straps are attached, consider how much you dislike the original straps and how long a time you can spend on the project.

I bought this recently from a vintage shop in Sheffield. Can anyone guess what it is? Big up the love to whoever can!
