Adding dramatic pieces can spice up your wardrobe!
I've decided that one of the things that draws me to items I love is a dramatic effect. Like this long robish kind of thing. I found it at my local Goodwill and it just jumped out at me. I tried it on immediately and knew I had to have it! $5 later, it's like we've known each other forever. I've got lots of ideas on how to wear this.....belted over a pencil skirt, hanging open over white jeans and heels, with an opaque slip underneath and a skinny belt and worn like a dress. It's new home is adorning the dress form that I have in my room.
Here are a couple of gorgeous girlies who inspired me with their long flowing numbers. The Stylish Wanderer and the effortlessly chic Karla's Closet!

Drama is definitely good! I love that piece. Love how you styled it and can't wait to see all of the other iterations. You look gorgeous!!!

I hope I can find some great pieces like you always do..wish you were here to shop with me. You look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSerene you look gorgeous, I'm sure you turned heads because you look so elegant. I usually don't go for the drama, I love how it looks on others but I feel a little bit self -conscious when I try it myself. =)
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! And I love your ideas for more ways to wear this piece. I tend to shy away from all dramatic pieces, but you are very inspiring!

ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you here. I love the bold statement pieces with the rest of it fairly simply. It's so elegant and shows unique style.
ReplyDeleteI like the long white coat. Yes, I don't walk out the front door unless there's drama in the mirror! I usually use hats to look fabulous, but statement necklaces work, too.
