Lace Crochet Chiffon Maxi

As for how this dress fit, if you’re petite like me (I’m 5′ tall), the dress did run a little long on me and I had it hemmed about 3″ on the bottom.  I also found that the waist hung below my natural waistline about 1″ so I had the whole dress brought up from the shoulders.  They were both simple alterations that just required a basic straight stitch across — a fairly simple DIY that hopefully you can do at home as well if necessary!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!  We had some old college friends visiting and it was so much fun to have our boys playing together as they’re only 4 months apart.  Adrian also had his birthday today so we’re celebrating his birthday all week long for him!  Dylan couldn’t be more excited as he’s been singing the Happy Birthday song non-stop.  🙂

Have a great one and don’t forget to enter my Minted.com giveaway!
