Nothing2Wear: 5 Ways To ReStyle a Winter Dress In Summer

Sale racks are smart spools of marked down fashion treasures. All of your favorite boutiques keep at least one sale rack stocked year-around and it’s a great place to find something you’ve been eyeing but were too shy to buy at full-price. You’ll many times find something out-of-season on the hanger, which turns your experience into a double score. You can save it to wear when the season circles back or you can follow me and restyle it to wear right now.

Target is one of my favorite places to nab an out- of- season find. That’s what my sister did. She grabbed this shark grey sleeveless A-line dress from Target’s sale rack but its drab winter hue certainly needed a spritzy Spring/Summer edit. Inspired by natures’s dazzling color and a hint of print mixing, we turned this winter whim into a summer gem and added a handful of new looks.

Look 1 : A string of pearls should be a staple piece in your wardrobe. The accessory pairs with any and everything and is truly timeless. A long or short strand will give your looks a simple transitional accent.

Look 2: An animal print cardigan is another must-have closet staple piece. It pairs with any hue. It’s professional enough for the office on Monday and casual enough to pair with denims on Saturday.

Look 3: Convert the dress to a midi skirt by styling a top over the dress. Adding one with sparkle detail and a floral print is the perfect pop of pizzazz. The glitter shoulder detail give the dress a sophisticated ‘after 5p, desk to drinks’ upgrade.

Look 4: Pairing prints creates visual interest. Also notice the versatility of the strand of pearls. Mixing prints can be a little tricky but start with the colors in each piece. If they match, then you have a good pairing.

Look 5: Layering with a citrus blazer is a lovely move that’s is right on summer trend.

Accessorize: Be sure to accessorize. This pearlized statement ring pairs great with the pearls and the turquoise bracelet highlights the colors in her floral top.
