Sometimes its good to reinvent the existing wardrobe without shopping for new stuff. I usually like to do that with some of my dresses that I find really hard let go. True it is taking up wardrobe space, but there are always ways to create new looks with these old dresses. I like to add some trending layering pieces to some of my old slip dresses or add some trendy accessories to old outfits. I am adding some brightness to an otherwise cloudy day with this colourful solid double layered mini dress that has a beautifully crafted sweetheart neckline to it. Although sweetheart neckline is traditionally a thing of wedding gowns or those dainty lace outfits for special occasions, I don’t mind them making their way into my regular outfits such as a fit flare dress or a peplum top.
This Superdry dress is indeed one of my favourites and I was lucky enough to find it at a local thrift shop. I bought this one almost three or four years ago and frankly I haven’t found any occasion to wear it. Nothing seems to be good enough for this one. That’s how much I love this dress. It was so much fun to actually take it out finally and freshen it up by pairing it with something most unexpected like these fishnet socks. And not just that, my fishnet socks are adorned by a string of pearls. I have been obsessed with fishnets since 2017 as they became a rage. Mostly stockings. However, fishnet stockings cannot be a day to day thing. Socks on the other hand can be made pretty wearable with a lot of outfits. I have worn these socks under skinny pants with flats and carried them to work without any second thoughts. Pearls have been the most popular jewellery trend of 2019. Besides jewellery, we can find them encrusted on all kinds of accessories. I got this pair way back in 2017 from Urban Outfitters.
These fuchsia heels were a pair I would never give a miss for this cute dress. Frankly, I cannot imagine any other footwear for this dress. There was no reason to over accessorise this look and I never add a necklace to a sweetheart neckline. The neckline itself has so much to offer. I am opting for a fuchsia suede bag with fringes, kitty sunglasses and a watch. What do you think about this look?
