If you think paying over $100 for dance pants is crazy and borderline “lulu” then here's some ideas to "Hip Up" your duds.
Really Cute Ruffles
You need:
1.Capri length Stretch Pants or long stretch pants you are willing to cut.
2. Old t-shirt
3. Scissors, needle, thread, pins and all that jazz.
· From the bottom of your t-shirt cut 4-6 two inch wide strips (makes 2-3 ruffles/pant leg)
· Use a basting stitch along the length of your strips and then gather into pretty ruffles
· Pin your ruffles to bottom of your capris, stitch, and then move on up to the next one
· Dance around in your new fancy bloomer style capris!
Remember to overlap your ruffles so you only see the top seam. Also take into account that t-shirt material will roll so you will need to overlap even more.
