New Dress Makeover!

So, I found the cutest dress in our local cheapo shop (i wont name names... ok i will, primark!) for £5. I HAD to own it. The only problem i had with it were the ugly buttons :S (see pictures below):



see? they're the cheapest, plastic, gold buttons ever. gross!
soooo.... I thought I'd show you all how i changed it in to a cutie vintage looking dress...

step one: take off the awful buttons (if anyone wants them by the way, I'm happy to give them away).
step two: find some lovely buttons:



these are vintage buttons from the 60's. one of them is odd... which is a shame, but what can you do? it's coloured in gold instead of yellow, but i think it only adds to the charm.

step three: sew on new buttons:





step four: show off :P
