Color Blocking

Today's prompt was the first one where, as soon as I saw it, I thought, "Hey! I can wear _____."

And now, a story:

Once upon a time, there was a very cheap girl named Nicole. She was so cheap, that the TOTAL cost of any of her outfits so far had never been more than $20. If you take out the shoes, the total cost was less $10 for any of her clothing.

One day she found a shirt on sale at Walmart for $1.00. "Who doesn't need a gray shirt?" she thought to herself, and stuck it in her cart.

Unfortunately, she took the shirt home, and found out why it was $1.00. It was kind of horrible. It didn't fit right, the stitching was off slightly so it twisted oddly, and the color was just...well...gray. It got tossed into the Goodwill pile with a handful of other clothes.

Then she had some free time, and decided to try and fix this shirt. Wasting even a dollar seems criminal...right? She grabbed two other shirts from the pile (both of which had been free) and got to work. At first she was trying to turn it into a tunic...but she made it WAY too long. So long that...with a little extra fabric, it could be a dress (not too bad for $1)!

Dress: three wayward shirts turned color block dress.(by me!) Shoes: Airwalk TOMS copies from Payless, Undershirt: Shade

A dress that could be worn comfortably from airport to airport...because, after all, it's just three T-shirts sewn together. If it were less fitted, I'm pretty sure it would be a muumuu, and/or a house dress. Just don't tell anyone, OK?
