1 Dress, 2 Different Ways of Wearing It! {My Style}

You might remember this grey dress from one of my Chicago outfits that I wore this past summer. I usually try to wear my clothes in many different ways depending on the season. It is amazing how you can completely changed the look of the outfit with changing a few minor things.

 Same Dress 2 different styles

Since it is cooler out I wanted to show you what I did different: For this outfit I added black tights, black leather shoes, a fake black leather jacket with a grey handbag.

I don’t know if any of you know this, but since our wedding Brandon and I have been living at his mom’s house because our new house actually flooded the day we bought it. Since we are in the middle of fixing everything up, I don’t have my usually wardrobe because a lot of it is still boxed away.

Repeating  outfits and changing up how they look have been a necessity around here.  Although it is hard to imagine, I am beginning to like living a little more simple. It is amazing how much faster I get ready in the morning when I only have a few things to choose from.

Now I must ask, what do you like about the way I changed up this grey dress? Have you ever felt like completely changing a statement peace in your wardrobe?

Mullet Dress? {My Style}

It can’t be possible that it has been three weeks since Blogher in Chicago. This mint mullet dress completes my 3 outfit city series. I first wore my Pretty in Pink Dress and then my Simple and Sleek Grey Dress.

You might be wondering why I call this dress my mullet dress. Well… it is party in the front and business in the back. Don’t get me wrong, I am in love with this style dress. But you have to admit, it does looks like a mullet.

Like I said last week, dresses are my thing. I ware them 9 time out of 10 when I am going on a date with Brandon, out with friends and almost every other special occasion. Sometime I ask Brandon to take me out somewhere just  so I can get all dressed up (It is a good thing he doesn’t mind getting all dresses up with me).

This is the most amazing dress ever!!! I love the mint color

For this look I wanted a quick and easy hairstyle. (Tutorial to come)

I added a pearl necklace…

I love this necklace with this mint dress... so cute!

… and few other pearl accessories.

Adding simple jewelry to a mint dress, I love it!

I then completed the look with some strappy white heals. I don’t know if you remember but these are the same ones that I wore in my first outfit.

It is easy to duplicate shoes when you are traveling. Most of the time your shoes can be very versatile and will go with more than one outfit anyways.

Again all of the credit of these beautiful photos go to Emily (Freckled-Fox.com).

I just have to mention that I am completely obsessed with the color mint! It is such a beautiful color and I love they way it brings out my tan.

Is there a color you love to wear? Maybe a color that brings out your eyes or one of your favorite features about yourself?

My Newest Inspiration!

Have you ever had a time in your life where something inspired you? Something that made you see something you had never seen before. Or maybe look at something in a different way?

There are so many things that can give someone an inspiration. It can be a book, a picture, a song or even a color and I am excited to share with you my newest inspiration. I just can’t seem to get enough of the color purple! Everything purple catches my eye. Although, I am not noticing the light purple as much as I am the deep, rich, eggplant purple! The main thing I love about an inspiration is that it usually is something that you look at and it automatically puts a smile on your face!

When I look at a deep, rich purple color it makes me think of the darkest color of a beautiful sunset and I can almost feel the warmth of the sun at the end of summer. It immediately lifts my mood helps me to remember the little things in life.

Here are a few pictures to help you understand the richness of the color and just how beautiful it is.

Thank you so much for reading!
