ONE DRESS...WEAR IT THREE WAYS

Every lady is on a budget so who doesn't want to get the most out of a look?  Today I will show you one dress and how you can wear it to three different ways.  Take inspiration from this blog and see how you can change up your looks and apply this styling tips to your wardrobe to create new looks.

The idea is to buy accessories, shoes, bags that you can interchange with a dress, skirt, top to make it look new and fresh.

Trina Turk, one of my favorite designers, has produced a line for Banana Republic (available June 7th).  Her pieces are great to transition from day to night or different occasions.


Start with the Trina Turk for Banana Republic strapless dress. $185


For Work:  Simple touches like elegant jewelry, heels, and a bag can make this bold printed dress work for the office.  Add a white blazer if in a more corporate office or a teal or jade cardigan/cropped jacket if in a more creative field.

Pool Party: Wear the strapless dress with wedges to be dressier or flip flops and flat sandals to be more casual.  Add a fun beach bag and shades to brighten up the look and keep it playful.

Night On The Town:  For a night out change to sexier heels/sandals, such as these by Jeffrey Campbell.  Anything with studs or embellishment dresses up the look.  If you are going somewhere classier, try a gold metallic sandal.
