~ (I got this idea from Grace F. who was in my P.E. class a few yrs. ago)
I bought a blue flower print dress from Belk 2 yrs. ago, and I wanted to wear it today but somehow it was smaller and shorter... okay, it wasn't the perfect size when I bought it but it was cute and okay (I dunno if I grew...cus I'm still the same height!= Asian-.-'). So what I did was put a white skirt under my dress- the white a-lined skirt has frills on the bottom to blend the skirt and dress together. Make sure the skirt you put under your dress is 1- longer than the dress, 2-same color or nice contrast, 3-same shape as the dress as in if it's a pencil dress then get a pencil skirt with it (I've only done this trick with a-lined dresses though...)
To modestify the top part of your dress, just grab a cardigan or jacket- different jackets suit different events; denim or plain cardis (Old Navy has tons) work great for school and collared or more detailed jackets are good for special events. If you don't want to wear a skirt under your dress, you could pull your dress down to the modest length and wear a tank top and a jacket to modestify the top section.
If you know any other non-sewing skills required fashion tricks, please comment away;)
