This weeks theme for Project Run and Play is Mad for Plaid.This is one of my favorite themes…I love me some plaid! Luckily I had two yards of this plaid fabric in my stash. I had purchased it from Walmart when it was on clearance for $1 a yard.
The dress is a pretty simple A-line shape with fluttery sleeves and a ruffle on the bottom.
At the neckline I added a little ruffle down the front of the dress and topped it with some bias tape. I was going to add a button for a closure but decided against it in the end. It is kind of a fun way to make a dress with no closures.
The hooded cardigan was made from some more $1 a yard fabric from Walmart.
So the whole look cost about $3.00 to make.
The tights are from Target and are lined with fleece. The girls are loving these tights! The cute little boots are from Target as well.
Her reward for being such a good model!

Great outfit!
I love everything about it: the fabric, the ruffled neck line, the styling and photos.
And, of course, your little (top) model. She is lovely!

Cute dress, cute top – and super cute model . I love plaid as well – reminds me of the ribbon mother used in my hair many years ago …

So cute!!! I wish my girl liked to wear dresses, but she has way too much tom-boy in her to be bothered with them. Love the barn/shed…is that yours?
