Sleevey Dress

I've had this dress for a while now. I've worn it once, but always avoided it because of the long sleeves. I don't generally mind long sleeves, but these were baggy and unflattering.

So I finally decided to chop them off. I cut them at an angle.

Pinned them around, then sewed.

New sleeves! I could definitely see me wearing this dress more now.
