To me, this is the perfect dress on me. 3/4 sleeve, high neck line to not show to much skinnyness, nipped in a waist to show off my waist and skater dress bottom to give the idea that I have a wee bit of shape.
Now I have worn this dress a couple of times through out the year and I simply don't have the heart to change the styling of it. I know the main reason behind this crazy year of not shopping is to try and let my creativity flow, to styles clothes in way I never have before. But in my opinion, you can over style clothes in trying to be different or trying to be unique. I love this dress, just the way it is so why would I change it. However, here are just some ideas
Options for restyling:
- Add Layers to the dress: A navy jumper would look lovely over top or even a denim shirt left open
- Add a thick belt: I did try a thicker belt this morning, it looked ok but I preferred the brown belt
- Add different shoe: I always wear my brogues with this dress but it would be nice to wear danty heels & wear it out to dinner.
- Jewellery: A nice short necklace would be nice
Any other ideas, let me know
I always throw jumpers over my dresses and wear them during winter with tights etc. I'd also try putting a tutu underneath and giving the skirt volume! I looove the concept of your blog, I wish I had the balls to do it myself haha!

Aw Laura, I never thought of a tutu! I actually think I have one from Halloween a few years ago, that actually would look great under a skater skirt. Would def put a new spin to an oufit! thanks for the idea! xx
