Ok so I love knee length skirts. But I don't love wearing them with little ones! I feel like I am constantly pulling it down, stressing about showing leg, and adjusting it some more. So when I saw this tutorial the other day, I knew that it was for me. I don't think I've ever seen a tutorial and then made it so quick! (and it helped that I had just put aside 2 longer length slips for the thrift store since I never ever wear them. So glad I still had them!!) I bought the lace trim on Thursday and then didn't get a chance to make it before Sunday morning. But as I got dressed Sunday morning, I knew that it would work perfect under the skirt I was planning on wearing. So in a mad rush, I whipped up my skirt slip! It seriously didn't take very long (we have 9am church and we were on time!) and I was shocked at just how often I kept seeing that lace trim throughout church.
Ok so the only thing I did differently than the tutorial, was that I added a second row of trim- double layered it for more height. I did this for a wrap dress that I have- I am really adjusting and worrying nonstop in it!! Now I think I'll make a black one next... because I'm pretty sure I'll be wearing a skirt slip almost every Sunday from now on!!
4 people had to something to say:
It looks really cute! I was thinking of making something similar to this with some lace I have lying around. :)
Pretty!! Yeah, I know what you mean about not wanting to expose too much flesh, especially at Church. I often layer up, I'm thinking I might add some lace to some of my vest tops so they cover my chest area up a little too! A toddler yanking on your top isn't a good combo either :-)
I actually just put this on my pinterest the other day because I just got two new dresses that I would like to add some length too and totally need to make this! Glad to hear that it was so easy to make! :)
I love it. That is super cute and perfect for the last little bit of length!!! LOVE IT!
