In a less-than-desirable economic environment, I took a trip to my local thrift store to find some pieces I could turn from being worth $50 to $2000 in value (hopefully)…

Here are some *fancy* things you could make with a dress shirt, plain black dress, and cardigan you could find at just about any thrift store around!

We asked you guys to pick what fabric we should use up from my stash and two shirts were born!
