Make Your Own High Low Skirt
We love the high low skirt trend. The breezy hemline makes this trend perfect for these hot summer months. You can see Elsie sporting this style here. We thought it would be fun to create our own high low skirt from an existing (thrifted) skirt; making this a project restyle. Here's what we did: 1.
