Girl You Should Know

She's inspired and inspiring. Clever and crafty. She's Marisa Lynch, blogger and refashonista extraordinaire.

I found her via a friend's Facebook post, and haven't missed a day since. Her idea in essence sounds simple enough: Get a clothing item for $1 at a thrift store and tweak it to make it modern and wearable.

The hard part: Repeat for the next 364 days in a row.

But this is exactly what Marisa is doing on her blog New Dress A Day, and with only 113 days left to go, I'd say she's cruisin' toward success. At this moment, she's even a dollar in the black. Not to mention getting interviewed by Time Magazine recently.

And as a bonus, not only are her results consistently fab, but her clever commentary and step-by-step pics of the road to each refashion only amp up the enjoyment and suspense until the finale photo.

Day 241: My personal fave.

I'm not looking forward to day 365 and $0 left, but I'll be hanging on every stitch until then.
