I hope y’all enjoyed Sumo’s dress yesterday. Today I’m excited to show you mine – a dress version of the Rose T-shirt.
I am obsessed with the Lisette lawn and voile prints at Joann. I think I bought some of all of them.
The jersey for the dress is from The Fabric Fairy. I only had a yard of it, so I had to add the print band at the hem – but I love the detail. I also used the last bits of knit binding from this project to finish the sleeves – I love the little pop of green there.
I wore the dress with my new crocheted TOMS. I have joined the cult of TOMS, and have brainwashed my mom into it too. They are quite possibly the most comfortable shoes ever.
The dress looks great without the belt, light and summery and just A-line enough to skim past my tummy rolls.

I love the idea of making it into a dress! Love the Toms, I regret throwing mine out after they got a hole in them, there are so many fun DIY projects to do with them if that happens….
