Lace elephant..

Dress: H+M // Blazer + tights: Primark I seem to be in a bit of a mid-week slump at the moment. I've not been sleeping much of late, and mornings have been a bit more of a rush. Wednesday mornings are my earliest start as my gym class begins at 6.45, so I'm posting some photos from a few weeks back. I really liked the contrast of these patterned tights with the burgundy sandals, and thought this dress would match them quite nicely, until I realised just how short it was on me. It's since found a new home, and I'm wondering about making something similar, but a little longer on me. I've not shopped for lace fabrics before; any tips? I'm off to the ballet...
