PR&P Party dress remix

Well, here is my Party dress remix for the project run and play sew along! I love love love the way it came out! The pics do not serve it justice. I had a very difficult time with the pics for this dress because 1. cranky daughter 2. terrible awful lighting 3. rushing 4. my camera has been acting funky... ok... everybody else, and everything else has the blame. so there.
Ok, for the remix, I remixed the dress by changing the buttons to a zipper, my girl likes zippers better than buttons, I made the skirt fuller, I added sleeves (which by the way it was crazy hard) I also opted for a faux leather skinny belt with a cute bow in the center ( I love the belt, I made it like a real belt, with a buckle, and eyelets) I also made the headband to match the same way! The color is a pale pink, and I added white trim along the sleeves and around the hem of the skirt. OH! I also for the first time did a blind hem for this dress! It looks so neat! Anywhoo, now for the photos! :)
