It's Christmas time. Just kidding. Well, it surely looks like that outside my window - the entire ground is covered with white blanket! That is after sandals and pool weather on Sunday - New York weather is crazy, I tell ya. So here we are back in cold again and the last of black and white outfit for this season (don't quote me on that though).
So what's better then a dress that can be worn as a top? Pretty much nothing. My sister was giving me the stink eye and said 'went shopping again?' in her sisterly condemnation voice. I was glad to say I did not (I think hubby sand Hallelujah at that point). The trick is to have a dress short enough that it can hide underneath the skirt's hem. Also, you want the skirt to be thick enough so that no one would be able to tell you are wearing more underneath. I love experimenting with clothes and this is just one of the ways to stretch your dollars and get more wear out of your clothes.
Hope you have a good (non-snowy) day!
This is such a cute idea! I've worn a dress as a skirt but not as a top, great inspiration!! Hope your snow melts soon. We've had freezing temps today here in NC after wearing shorts the last couple of days, this spring sure is crazy!!!

And your outfit is darling - love those pumps!
DeleteSuch a fun and cute idea! I'll definitely have to try this out with my dresses/skirts. I live near Memphis and our weather changes like this often. Our motto is "If you don't like the weather in Memphis, just wait 5 minutes." Have a great week! :)
