Snake and Lace

Today was ridiculously cold in Virginia!
Not only that but it was super windy.
I was still determined to take these photos for you guys though.

Here is another custom made, recycled piece.

I found this [originally a] dress at the thrift store about two weeks ago for $3.
I fell in love with the snake print pattern contrasted with the lace trim.

Initially I thought to removed the lace, but it just gives the outfit such a nice contrast don't you think?
I then decided to sew it into a romper. The legs turned out a little long, but I adjusted them
once I put on the outfit. 

The original size is an 8 which is way to big for me. I washed it to give it some shrinkage 










For accessories, I added a black belt to give my waist some definition. 
I also picked a black clutch style bag that I thrifted about 2 years ago. 
Lastly some nude pumps to complete the look.






Romper: Thrifted and up-cycled
Belt: Charlotte Russe
Purse: Thrifted
Pumps: Charlotte Russe
