While I’m not yet ready to fully embrace a minimalist capsule wardrobe, I do make sure that the clothes I buy can be worn multiple ways. Long gone are the days where I buy a dress just for one weekend; since Rent the Runway Unlimited entered my life, I never have to buy single use clothing again.
When I saw this dress on the And Other Stories site, I challenged myself to come up with three different ways to wear it. One reason why this dress is so versatile is because it’s billowy and doesn’t have a fitted waist. That means you can immediately create a more fitted look with a belt. I’ve already worn the dress once, to my PhD convocation, but here are three other ways to style the dress.
Dressed Up for a Date
And Other Stories Dress (gifted), Amazon Belt, Loewe Puzzle Bag, Cult Gaia Mules
Dressed Down for Shopping
And Other Stories Dress (gifted), Amazon Belt, Polene Paris No. 6 Bag, Nike Huaraches
Worn Free for Brunch or the Beach
And Other Stories Dress (gifted), Cult Gaia Ark Bag, Oga Sandals (similar), And Other Stories sunglasses (gifted)
My favorite is the 3rd and 1st look but honestly I like them all. The dress and sneakers look is adorable. My daughter has said that the look doesn’t go together but I see that it does.
