Red Hot Vintage Jacket

So I had found this red wool coat a while ago and kind of forgot to list it for sale until recently.



I just love the color with the gold buttons!  Also, it still has the tags attached!!!  Can you believe it!  I'm guessing it's late 80's early 90's.  Anyways it can be found for sale here.

On another note I made this dress a while back as well for a wedding I was going to and just haven't had a chance to post it.




The dress is actually made from things of my moms.  The bodice of the dress is old fabric from her stash that used to be yellow but I dyed it.  The skirt is from and old dress of hers that I deconstructed.



I just love the pleated skirt and the color!  :)  I was planning on selling it too but after I made it I just loved it too much.  Plus it is sentimental because of all the fabric from my mom.  But I think I will be making a variation of this dress to sell...  We will just have to see!

Oh and thanks to my brother for taking the pictures!

Can I borrow it if I have an event? How cool would that be to wear an old dress that my daughter reconstructed??? :)
