How to Turn a Thrift Store Maxi Skirt into a Summer Jumper

Kelly Bryden
Jun 19, 2016

A couple weeks ago I visited my best friend Annie down in LA, and she brought me to this magical land called the Melrose Flea Market in West Hollywood. There were tents and tents filled with amazing thrift store finds, cute tiny gold jewelry and even plush flair pins. (I picked up one of Drake’s head. It’s amazing.) We walked into this one tent filled with jumpers and I was in heaven. The maker told me how she finds thrift store maxi skirts and turns them into jumpers by adding fun fabric to the top. I immediately thought of you B+C fans out there and knew I needed to create a post showing you how to turn a maxi skirt into a summertime romper. For all you LA folks, go show love and support for this jumper genius; all the rest of you, scour your closets for maxi skirts and repurpose them into jumpers ASAP.

Materials + Tools:

— maxi skirt

— sewing pins

— measuring tape

— fabric scissors

— fabric chalk

— sewing machine

— iron

Instructions:

1. Try on your skirt and create a mark at the length you want to make your jumper. Measure out on a table and trim off the extra fabric.

2. Create a 13 x 8-inch template out of paper and pin onto the excess fabric from the bottom of your skirt. Cut out four 13 x 8-inch panels.

3. Pin two rectangles to each other and sew down the 13-inch side to create a new rectangle measuring 13 x 16 inches.

4. Pin the two 13 x 16-inch rectangles together and sew around three sides.

5. Turn the large rectangle right side out, pin and sew to the waistband of the skirt.

6. Cut two long rectangles that measure about 28 x 4 inches for your straps. Fold in half and sew.

7. Turn them right side out and pin to the top edge of the rectangle top and the back of the skirt waistband. Sew in place.

Try on your new thrift store purchase and decide the length of your new jumper. Try to trim at least eight inches off of the bottom to follow this tutorial, but if that isn’t possible, I will give you tips and tricks to make it work ;)

My #1 tip for trimming clothing is always cut below the line you first measured. You can always cut off more but you can never add more back on. In this case, I cut about one inch underneath my marked line.

Our skirt was made from a cinched fabric, so I ran an iron over it to smooth it out so that I would be able to cut rectangles the correct size. Measure out a piece of paper that is 13 x 8 inches and then pin to the fabric. Cut out four 13 x 8-inch rectangles.

Pin two rectangles together and sew along the 13-inch side. This will create a 16 x 13-inch rectangle. Pin the two large rectangles together (good sides facing inward) and sew around three sides. (Sew the two 16-inch sides and one 13-inch side.) Pro tip: If you have enough skirt material to create a 16 x 13-inch rectangle, skip ahead to this step — there is no need to tile the two pieces together. On the other hand, if you don’t have enough fabric to cut out four 13 x 8-rectangles try cutting out 3 x 4-inch squares and sewing four together to create a large tile for the top rectangle of your jumper.

Turn the rectangle right side out, fold over the raw edge and pin to the waistband of the skirt.

Pin and sew to create the new top of your thrift store jumper!

Cut two straps from the remaining skirt fabric. Ours measured 28 x 4 inches, but we suggest using measuring tape to figure out the appropriate length for your strap. Pin good sides facing inward, sew and then turn right side out.

Fold the raw edge under and pin one edge of the strap to the top of the rectangle. Criss cross the straps and pin the other edge to the waistband of the skirt.

Voilà! But let’s put it on — you totally can’t tell how cute it is from this hanger picture ;)

It is safe to say that I am 100% in love with this summer-style hack. San Francisco residents — if you happen to be thrifting for maxi skirts, my apologies if they are all gone. I may or may not have cleaned out the racks to make myself 20 new jumpers.

Throw on a cute bandeau or a bathing suit top to rock underneath your new repurposed jumper.

These 7 Amazon Fashion Picks Make The Easiest Summer Outfits

Are you packing last-minute for atrip? Have you been looking for the perfect cover-up but can't seem to find it anywhere? Well, don't worry, I've got you covered! You know how much I love Amazon over here. They not only have a million things to offer, but they have them at unbeatable prices.

Many pieces from mysummerwardrobe are from Amazon, because they always seem to have exactly what I'm looking for (and usually in 15 other colors too). There are so many good summer clothes to choose from, but I have sifted through some pieces that I think are perfect staples for your warm weather wardrobe.

Amazon

Anrabess Linen Palazzo Pants

These comfy pants are great for any summer activity. I love a good basic that you can style however you want! If you're going on vacation this summer, I highly recommend grabbing a pair of pants like these, because you will not regret having a good pair of breathable linen pants. You can find these in literally any color for $36!

Amazon

Cozyease Floral Embroidery Knot Front Cami Top

This $27 top looks like it comes straight from Urban Outfitters or Abercrombie & Fitch. Flowy tops are super trendy again, and they are flattering on everyone. I love the detailing on this white and blue top, but there are four other patterns to choose from. I can imagine walking around in Greece wearing this top, especially with these colors!

Amazon

Zqffb Swim Cover-Up

Don't miss out on a good swimsuit cover-up this summer. I used to just wear a big t-shirt to the beach, but I recently graduated to wanting to look a bit more put together with cover-ups like this one. This top is great to just throw over your suit and pair with some shorts or linen pants for a full 'fit! You can shop this cover-up in white or black for only $20.

Amazon

Light Dot Halter Neck Dress

I love, love, love this pattern! I recently ordered a dress from this brand, and the material is incredible. It's durable, yet very breathable. This halter dress is perfect for a party or date night. And can we talk about the neckline? So fun! If you want to incorporate more patterns and colors into your wardrobe this summer, I highly recommend checking out this $33 flowy dress.

Amazon

Ferbia Crochet Drawstring Shirt

I want this $25 top in every color. You can never go wrong with a knit top in the summer because they are so nice and airy. The drawstring is unique and allows you to adjust the top to your liking. You can wear it as a top or as a cover-up for the beach. Personally, I would love to style this with a long white maxi skirt.

Amazon

Mebius Womens Floral Mini Dress

Everyone needs at least one good floral dress in their wardrobe. They are so fitting for the spring and summer seasons, and you'll be wearing it all the time when it gets warm. I was immediately drawn to the shape of this dress. I love the criss-cross neckline and the stretchy waist. Dare I say, this is the perfect picnic dress! You can get this one for $32.

Amazon

SeekMe Linen Short Set

You can look so effortlessly put together with any matching set. But as we know, linen and summer go together like wine and cheese. You can style this set in so many different ways that one outfit can end up becoming six! If you need to pack light on vacation, get this $30 set – you will not regret it.

13 Worst Christmas Movies To Hate-Watch This Holiday Season (We Know You Want To)

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. I'm referring to our holiday movie watchlist, of course. The best new Christmas movies always make for a good time. But when it comes to the worst Christmas movies ever? Honestly, sometimes they make for an ever better time (especially when you're really dedicated to hate-watching). See which movies made the list below!

Keep reading to see the 13 worst Christmas movies that are so bad, they made the naughty list.

Our Little Secret (2024) — On Netflix Now

Chuck Zlotnick/Netflix

We're starting off strong with a Rotten Tomatoes rating that made my jaw drop! Despite the fact Lindsay Lohan's new comedy, which follows two exes who realize their partners are siblings, made me laugh out loud, it only got a RT rating of 36 percent and audience rating of 59 percent, as well as an IMDb rating of 5.8 out of 10. Yikes.

Four Christmases (2008) — On Hulu

New Line Productions

In my opinion, Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon are a match made in Heaven in Four Christmases, which follows their characters Brad and Kate as they go through four separate family gatherings on Christmas Day. Unfortunately, it looks like audiences disagree because the movie got a 5.7 out of 10 on IMDb and a 47 percent Rotten Tomatoes audience rating (with only a 25 percent from RT itself!!).

I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998) — On Hulu

Walt Disney Pictures

In I'll Be Home For Christmas, Jake (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) returns home for the holiday hoping that his estranged dad (Gary Cole) will get him a porsche...but winds up getting left with nothing but a Santa suit in the middle of the desert thanks to the football team. To make matters worse, his GF Allie (Jessica Biel) has no clue what happened to him, and decides to hitchhike with Jake's nemesis Eddie (Adam LaVorgna).

Even though it has a ton of elements that could make for an entertaining movie, this flick only got a 23 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, along with a 41 percent audience rating, and a 5.5 out of 10 on IMDb.

The Christmas Candle (2013) — On Tubi

EchoLight Studios

Despite the fact historical films like A Christmas Carol are beloved by so many, critics consider The Christmas Candle one of the worst Christmas movies. The story follows a minister (Hans Matheson) in 1800s England who finds himself in a standoff against townspeople (including Samantha Barks) who believe a candle, and an angel's touch, offer a miracle every Christmas Eve.

The movie only got a 22 percent on Rotten Tomatoes (despite the fact it has a 74 percent audience rating), and a 6.3 out of 10 on IMDb.

​Tyler Perry's A Madea Christmas (2013) — On Tubi

KC Bailey/Lionsgate

Tyler Perry continues to be a fan favorite, proven by the fact that even though A Madea Christmas got a 21 percent on RT and a 5.1 out of 10 on IMDb, its RT audience score is 70 percent!

The Christmas movie follows Madea (Tyler Perry) and her niece Eileen (Anna Maria Horsford) on a journey to surprise Eileen's daughter Lacey (Tika Sumpter). Turns out, the reason Lacey didn't come home is she eloped! But it's with a character played by Chad Michael Murray, so I'm more than willing to press play on this one.

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006) — On Disney+

Walt Disney Studios

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and apparently the sentiment is not shared. This threequel follows Scott Calvin/Santa Claus (Tim Allen) goes toe-to-toe with Jack Frost (Martin Short) in a battle for the North Pole.

The movie only has a 17 percent RT rating and a 39 percent audience score, plus a 4.8 out of 10. Big yikes.

Deck the Halls (2006) — On Hulu

20th Century Fox/20th Century Studios

This horrible Christmas movie pairs up Matthew Broderick and Kristen Chenoweth three years after their stint in Disney's The Music Man, and follows Steve (Broderick) whose detailed, perfect Christmas is ruffled by Danny's (Danny DeVito) arrival in the neighborhood. One thing leads to another and suddenly Steve and Danny are in a battle to be the best-decorated house on the block. Oh, did I mention Kristin Davis costars?!

Deck the Halls has a startingly low rating of six percent on Rotten Tomatoes alongside its audience rating of 30 percent and a 5.1 out of 10 on IMDb.

A Law For Christmas (2023) — On Tubi

WesleyBros Productions

This new movie might have come just in time for the holidays last year, but viewers are wishing Santa had kept it for himself. The story (which stars Savannah Lathem and Chase Giacomo) follows a young politician who swaps the city for the country, and her job for her true calling.

It sounds romantic, but based on the 1.1 out of 10 rating on IMDb...it's not.

The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978)

CBS

I recently saw this special on air and, I'm sorry, I can totally see how some people consider this one of the worst Christmas movies. Aside from the fact it features OG Star Wars cast members like Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford, it just doesn't have the same magic as the movies we know and love.

The Star Wars Holiday Special follows Chewbacca and Han Solo as they journey to Kashyyyk (the Wookiee homeworld) for Life Day, and then have to entertain themselves when they're stopped by an Imperial blockade. Nothing says happy holidays like a 2.2 out of 10 IMDb rating and a 25 percent for both critics and audiences on RT. Unfortunately, it looks like this special isn't even available to stream.

Home Alone 3 (1997) — On Disney+

20th Century Fox/20th Century Studios

When are they gonna learn not to mess with originals?! Instead of picking up with Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin), Home Alone 3 introduces us to Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz) who has to defend his home from a new set of crooks when he's home sick.

The film has a 35 percent RT score and 27 percent audience rating, which is a far cry from Home Alone's respective 66 and 80 percents! The movie does star a young Scarlett Johansson though, so that's a plus.

Unaccompanied Minors (2006) — On Paramount+

John Bramley/Warner Bros. Entertainment

Being an unaccompanied minor might be every kid's dream but turns out, the movie's a nightmare. The story follows five stranded young adults (Dyllan Christopher, Tyler James Williams, Gia Mantegna, Quinn Shephard, and Brett Kelly) who take the opportunity to run buck wild in an airport (which...is still low-key a dream of mine TBH). Unfortunately their airport official (Lewis Black) and his assistant (Wilmer Valderrama) are not amused.

This bad Christmas movie has a 30 percent on RT with an audience rating of 35 percent, and an IMDb score of 5.4 out of 10.

The Perfect Holiday (2007) — On Peacock

Yari Film Group

The Perfect Holiday? Not so perfect. The movie follows divorcée Nancy (Gabrielle Union), whose youngest daughter Emily (Khail Bryant) plots to put a smile back on her mom's face. When she asks a store Santa Benjamin (Morris Chestnut) to give Nancy a compliment, she beings a chain of events that might just bring some Christmas magic back into their lives.

Sadly the movie only got a 19 percent RT score and 52 percent audience rating alongside an IMDb rating of 4.8 out of 10.

The Nutcracker: The Untold Story (2010) — Rent On Amazon Prime

Freestyle Releasing

And we're rounding out the list with what might be the worst Christmas movie of all; somehow The Nutcracker: The Untold Story got a ZERO PERCENT RATING on Rotten Tomatoes! How is that even possible?!

The movie follows Mary (Elle Fanning), who receives a magical nutcracker from her Uncle Albert (Nathan Lane). When the nutcracker comes to life and transports Mary to a magical land on Christmas night, she has to stand off against the evil Rat King — and rescue the nutcracker when he's kidnapped.

Unfortunately, the inspiring plot did not inspire viewers considering it got a 28 percent RT audience score and 4.1 out of 10 on IMDb.

7 Flattering Summer Dress Trends We Can't Stop Shopping Right Now

Summer 2024 is the summer of many things. It's Brat summer, the Paris Olympics (yay Team USA!), and the second round of the Eras Tour. There is so much to do and so much going on — we're booked and busy. Naturally, we need outfits for all the events we are attending, whether that be going to brunch with friends, a family barbecue, a blind date, or even just a solo day around town. I don't know about you guys, but I pretty much spend the majority of my summer in sundresses. They beat the heat, and are super adorable doing it. There are hundreds of dress options out there, but here are some of the dress trends we're absolutely obsessed with this year.

Backless Dresses

ASOS

ASOS halter neck low back maxi sundress

Let those shoulders breath, girl! There is something so subtly sexy about a backless dress, and bonus points when it has a halter neckline. This dress gives you a great excuse to throw your hair in an updo, especially in the summer heat.

​Bubble Dresses

H&M

H&M Bubble-hem Dress

We are SO back with the bubble skirt hem. Now, they may not be as puffed out as they were in the '80s or the early 2000s, but may this trend never die. You can never go wrong with a little movement and a little flare to your summer look. Today, you can find all styles of bubble dresses and skirts...and I am loving it.

Euro-Summer Linen Dresses 

J.Crew

J.Crew Squareneck midi dress in linen

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the linen trend is here to stay. It is so timeless that it's totally worth investing in a nice linen dress that will last forever. You can wear it out to dinner on vacay, or just throw it on to run errands around town. If I were to create a capsule closet (which TBH I could never — I'm way too much of a maximalist), I would a million percent include a white linen dress.

​Sleek Slip Dresses 

Aritzia

Wilfred New Only Slip Satin Midi Dress

Hello, sexy! This is the perfect nighttime dress for going on a date or drinks with the girls. The simplicity of a slip dress acts as a perfect canvas for all kinds of accessories. I would love to wear this dress with some kitten heels, a statement necklace, and a clutch.

​Puff Sleeve Dresses

Abercrombie & Fitch

The A&F Emerson Linen-Blend Puff Sleeve Mini Dress

I have sang my praises about this specific Abercrombie dress many times before, but in general, puffed sleeves are such a funky addition to a basic dress. They add nice dimension and are flattering on any body type!

​Ruffle Dresses

Free People

Free People More Is More Mini

Like this More is More Mini dress by Free People, more IS in fact more! Sometimes, additional fabric creates flowy movement that aligns with the free spiritedness of summer. This dress makes me wanna spend the day running around on the beach or in a field barefoot somewhere.

Cottagecore Dresses

Aritzia

Sunday Best Strudel Poplin Maxi Dress

I hope cottagecore never dies. This poplin Artizia dress is everything and more. It's cutesy, and perfect for any day event. You can make this look super casual, or elevate the dress with some heels.

Keiko Agena Revealed Which 'Gilmore Girls' Costars She Actually Keeps In Touch With

Gilmore Girls fans can all agree that, despite how much we love the show, Lane Kim (Keiko Agena) deserved WAY better. But Keiko admits that even though Lane's treatment on GG leaves a lot to be desired (starting with the fact that Lane is Korean American and Keiko is Japanese American), it was still a special role.

Keep reading to see which Gilmore Girls costars Keiko Agena talks to the most!

Keiko Agena has a complicated relationship with 'Gilmore Girls' character Lane Kim.

Saeed Adyani/Netflix

“I think what [the role] was for people was different than what it was for me,” she tells Juliet Litman on an episode of the Dear Felicity rewatch podcast (via People). “In a weird way, I feel like I want to honor the experience that people had from the show, and what it meant to them, especially young Asian people, because I get that comment a lot, about what it was like for them to see someone like that on screen.”

And it's no surprise that as much as Gilmore Girls viewers love Lane, Keiko "[loves] her too. I can tell, when I meet someone who knows Gilmore Girls or who loves Lane, it's like, I recognize that love. I see that you love that person."

But it's possible to hold two conflicting emotions at the same time, and although Lane Kim was an incredibly special role at the time, there are some things Keiko would do differently today. “The best thing is to have a Korean American writer [and a] Korean American actor,” she says. “I don't think that that role, cast that way, would happen today. But at that time, in 2000, it was such a different time that I definitely know I wouldn't have said no or pulled myself out of that situation at that time...Now it's just a mix of just having gratitude for having gone through that experience and having that experience.”

Keiko Agena also keeps in touch with two very special 'Gilmore Girls' costars!

And one aspect of Gilmore Girls that Keiko Agena is thankful for is her relationship with the Gilmore Girls cast! And there are two costars in particular she frequently keeps in contact with: John Cabrera (who played Brian) and Sean Gunn (who starred as Kirk).

“There is this kind of lovely nostalgia for that time, and yet also we have years since then,” she says. “I [have] gone to both of their weddings. Our friendship is part Gilmore Girls and appreciation for that crazy time, and then part just like a million other things that are just like friends.”

I was totally surprised to learn she keeps in contact with John and Sean (supposedly) more regularly than Alexis Bledel, but it makes sense when you remember Keiko, John, and Sean are all around the same age — and Alexis is 7 years younger. Hopefully we get another Gilmore Girls reunion to see our favorite television BFF's reunite!

Watch Lauren Graham & Scott Patterson's Mini Gilmore Girls Reunion for more Stars Hollow love!
