Today's take on a dress as a top.....the dress that no longer fits...or rather is now too short to be considered a dress. This one works best for kids, as often they grow in height more than anything else, but there are some dresses I've worn in the past that one might question if they were actually just a long top to begin with...so you never know, this might work for the rest of us too! So...before packing that dress away, handing it down or sending it off to consignment/donation take one more look at it and ask yourself if it could use a simple reclassification in order to hang out in the closet just a little bit longer. You might be surprised with what you come up with...
