Maxi dresses have a tendency to be too long on me because I'm so short, so this one from H & M is no exception (it's probably about a foot of fabric too long). First I thought about getting it professionally hemmed, but after the estimate turned out to be more than the dress, I rejected this idea (to hem jersey material is ridiculously expensive). Then I toyed with the idea of just chopping off the bottom and leaving it raw, but my OCD rejected this idea. Today, as I was dressing for work, I put on the dress and belted it, coming up with this look which I actually quite like (perhaps more than just having the dress on without draping it). So ended my nightmare of what to do with this dress, I just loved it too much to part with it on Ebay.
Oh, and since I always like to mention a little bit about work.. I've managed to get some virus on the computer rendering it completely unusable at this point. Considering I am probably the most computer literate in the company besides the IT guy, it sucks that I got such a bad virus .. so sad.. been mourning my computer all day..
