Animalistic Tendencies:





Hat- Gifted, Vest- Gifted, Coat- Kenneth Cole Reaction,
Dress- Calvin Klein, Bag- Vintage Coach, Watch-Michael Kors
(Get it here), Gifted Evil Eye bracelets, Booties- BCBG


      I scored this great black and white python print sweater dress at Marshalls while shopping with my friend Rhe (Of RheStyle.com). We both agreed that the garment needed a good hem and this is the final product after alterations! I have already worn this dress three times since having it trimmed down and couldn't be happier with my purchase. Today I discovered the perfect Shelli Segal LBD but it too needs to be altered a bit. I am hoping my new black dress (for $7!) turns out to be the same perfect fit as this python printed one! I prefer to alter inexpensive items over expensive ones. I feel like pricey items should fit better than less costly items and you make up the difference in cost with pro alterations!


Have you had good luck with 
altering items? ...Or bad luck?!


Yours,
Nico
