Outfit Rewind

The rewind piece for today first ran a little over two years ago and lovely reader Saige donated this two piecer! The colors of this piece still make me happy! Original post date: 7/17/12 (Click here for full project steps and the original post!)

The Before Look:

New Dress A Day - vintage blazer

Nothing like a two piecer!

New Dress A Day - vintage skirt

I turned the skirt into a strapless dress for my first wear!

The After Look:

See how I styled it for the second time around...

I decided to wear it as it was supposed to be worn...as a skirt!

However I styled it much differently than in the original matchy-matchy incarnation.

I paired the skirt with a navy bodysuit (I should have held onto all of my leotards from ballet class years ago), Urban Outfitters sunnies, a pair of navy flats along with a gold knotted statement bracelet. I loved the simplicity, yet pulled together vibe of this outfit.

...leaps are always on the agenda!!

Woo for one of my favorite new ensembles!! Nothing like pulling something from the back of the closet (or storage unit!) and re-envisioning it and styling it into something you're obsessed with!
