A dress of her own making.

I have a little fashionista on my hands. Riley's favorite thing to do while i am sorting, washing, and folding laundry is to design new outfits for herself from the various pieces and parts.

She started this look by donning two of mom's sports bras around her neck and a camisole over it all. A brave look for a brave girl.

She tried on several socks before deciding to keep it barefoot.


Mom's green tank top was part of the original idea, but it didn't work with the look she was creating.


Oh, yes. The black and white accessory is actually some of mom's underwear, slung fashionably over one shoulder. It's important for your clothing to work multiple ways in this lean economy.


Miss Yaya takes a bow in the chic ensemble she created for herself. The girl will definitely be on "Project Runway" in a few years.



TA-DA! Givenchy, Michael Kors, Versace, eat your heart out. This girl is the real deal.
