With a little snip and cuff, I took these thrifted overalls and turned them into shortalls...
And just for fun, I styled the shortalls two different, but classic, ways...
The Prepster:
jacket- F21; stripe shirt and straw madras hat- J.Crew; belt- Old Navy; vintage straw bag-eBay; aviators- Urban Outfitters; navy espadrilles- Espadrilles, etc.
The Dandy:
trench coat- Banana Republic; silk peter pan shirt- thrifted; velvet bow tie- diy; red bowler hat- H&M; vintage red purse- borrowed from mom; black Clubmaster sunglasses- Ray-Ban; Ferragamo bow flats- eBay.

Ooh, so fun! I like the prepster best :)
Oh those are cute! What a fantastic idea! I never even thought of that, I always passed over overalls.
Well, I'm going thrifting tomorrow, you've inspired me. =)
Thanks for following me by the way. :)
wow! i love both stylings of the shortalls! now i've got to find me a pair!
I love short alls..they are my faovrite. I love that red bowler hat. amazin! :) You are just too good.
I LOVE how you styled these!!! So sweet!! I would wear either outfit in a heartbeat. I love those Ferragamo flats.
I love the second outfit! I might have to keep my eye out for overalls next time I hit the thrift store.
love ur DIY denim really cute!!! and love ur outfits especial last one i love red!
can't seem to choose between the prepster and the dandy. i want both.
I'm loving this DIY Maria! Now if only I could actually find a pair of perfect overalls...I love how you styled it too in those two classic but fun ways!
I think I'm in love with the dandy, so adorable!!
Congrats to Giovanna too for the win:)

What great looks, and your DYI is awesome! The dandy one's neck bow just kills me :)
These two looks really look great! :)
Aww you styled it so well! Classics indeed. I am partial to The Dandy though because there is a bow involved. Haha. Can't wait to see you actually wear the shortalls!
What a great idea! I love the dandy!
I really should try some of your DIY projects, you make me feel lazy! lol jk. Both these looks are sweet, I think I might be leaning more toward the "dandy" one because I love that hat. :)
I've been thinking of doing this to my dungarees. I'm definately going to get around to it soon.
I have that red hat from H&M too...

I just got the same pair of overalls last week, but mine were already shorts. I can't wait to wear them with a stripe shirt of course so I am loving your first look!
these looks are both so *you*! i love the bowtie on the second one! great styling!
ooh.. both are cute. but i think i like the dandy best!
Maria! this is genius. the overalls make me think of the Alexa Chung/Madewell line. I guess b/c she's always in overalls! I love the way you styled them and took the photos. it's like something from a magazine with the way you showed it. so so cute.
I love the shortalls... lol. :) And I think the way you styled them are just fantastic!
so cute! I love the way you styled them both, especially the dandy!! I would so love to wear that! ^.^
You've styled this piece in two amazing ways!
super duper cute! love both looks :D
Such a great DIY! I just thrifted a coverall dress and cannot wait to wear it! This makes me want to throw it on this second!
I love these looks! I really like how you reinvent pieces that you already have. It's nice for us lay-people who don't have infinite wardrobes, to get ideas on how to style and re-style pieces that we already have in our wardrobes.
Excellent la salopette short !! & jolie tenue. =)
Whoo- THE PREPSTER. :)

I actually adore 'The Dandy'. It makes me really sad I can't pull off the colour red!
LOVE the Prepster!! Too cute ~~
So cute! I've been perusing different styles of overalls of late. I can't wait to see you sporting yours.

I need to find an overall that I can alter. I love the two different styling ideas!
I actually have a pair of shortalls. I'm so glad you found a wearable, non-trashy outfits. Last time, I wore was to a country theme party, I look pretty awful. I love the first one so much. I think I'm going to pull them out and wear them this week!
But I love both stylings too much to choose! Very cute!

Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this website. It's simple, yet effective.
A lot of times it's very difficult to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and visual appearance. I must say you have done a great job with this. Also, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!
