Make me new again.

I got this skirt from a friend and it's been sitting in my dresser waiting for me to do something with it. With Valentine's Day coming up I thought I would get in the spirit (for the first time in my life) and make a funky little dress to wear out on a date. Well actually it's now two separate pieces - a skirt and a top - but what's the difference really.

I cut about 11 inches off the bottom of the skirt, and made a sort of tube top with the remaining fabric. Added a zipper, took in some side seams to create a better fit, made some straps. And a couple darts and a pucker later I had myself an outfit.
