Hope 2016 is treating you all well so far!!!
Things are still busy for me, and I am admittedly feeling a little frazzled. Because life has been so hectic, I have been opting for easy no-brainer dressing options. And what's easier than a dress?
This black and white dress from Eloquii has such an easy fit, and it is one of those pieces that can be dressed up or down.
Like almost all of my clothes, this dress required some alterations. It had a layer of white fabric on both the sleeves and the hem which made the dress and sleeves too long.
At first, I simply considered hemming both, but I realized that I preferred the dress without the white. Being so petite, I felt like the white layers were a little overpowering, and the dress seemed a bit over-designed.
Instead of spending the money on alterations, I was able to change this dress myself by cutting the white layers out. From the outside, you can't tell that anything was cut out.
I bought some inexpensive ribbon and created a bow-tie for an added touch. Tights and booties kept me warm with the winter chill.
My kids thought the dress looked pilgrim-y, but that was okay with me. :-)
Do you wear a lot of dresses? What is your go-to when you want easy clothes?
