Instead of typical brown or black, I ordered a rich orange leather dye and got to work. It was an easy process and the finished project was gorgeous! For the impending Fall equinox I paired them with this graphic Loft shift dress. For accessories, I went high end with the purse.

I knew they were of such a high quality that I wanted to try and revive them.<\/p>\n <\/a>
\n<\/a> <\/a>I have a unique pair of stylish boots that no one else has. I\u2019ll be featuring some other DIY projects on an upcoming blog post. <\/a>
\n<\/a><\/p>\n <\/a>The blue and lime green coordinate nicely with the rich pumpkin color. The \u00be sleeves are perfect for these in-between days when it isn\u2019t really hot or cold yet.<\/p>\n <\/a>This adorable gold Cole Haan baguette bag would have retailed for around $300. I picked it up for just $6.97 at the Robesonia Goodwill. I added in a gold and orange necklace and bracelet to complete the look.<\/p>\n
\nNecklace: $6.97
\nBracelet: $1.97
\nPurse: $6.97
\nBoots: $20 (includes cost of boots and dye)<\/p>\n
