Style Evolution: 1 Dress, 2 Statement Necklaces

Each time I wear a piece, I try to make sure it looks different in some way. Cue accessories. One statement necklace, in a hot hue, can change your entire look and most people won’t realize it’s the same outfit. That’s the goal of my company, Nothing2Wear. My hope is that my style videos and how-to’s are helping you re-style and re-wear pieces already in your wardrobe. In addition, I hope they give you fashion ideas that are saving you tons of money. Such is the case today. I picked up this Carmen Marc Valvo chocolate brown, waterfall printed dress at a fantastic resale boutique in Atlanta, called Labels. It was still wearing its original tags but the new price tag made me giddy. I think the retail was around $230. My price?… $40. Yeah, Baby!

This dress is no exception. I styled it with a Kendra Scott statement necklace, simple strappy heels (similar), a Pelcor envelope cork clutch and stacked arm candy.

Look 2: I changed the look with one necklace swap. Vanilla cream hues blend wonderfully with this dress. You can then play up your makeup with a hot red lipstick and a smoky eye.
