secretary dress from an estate sale / pink dress from Buffalo Exchange

Right about now, you might be asking yourself why I'm dressed like a sister-wife. Well, these are a couple dresses that are about to go under the knife (err, scissors) to become better suited for everyday wear. I've been altering vintage clothes for myself ever since I got a sewing machine 10 years ago, but I've never documented the process before. I hope you enjoy seeing how these turn out in the end! Oh, and I tried to make these photos look especially drab so that the after photos would look even more awesome, infomercial style...
