one of my main objectives in showcasing my personal fashions in this space is providing ideas for how to style and restyle various pieces in your wardrobe. though i do like LOVE to shop, i always make sure my purchases are versatile enough that they’ll mix in seamlessly with the rest of my closet; that way i know i’ll get my money’s worth with their frequent wear.

this week, S and i moved our date night from saturday to friday, and we added a guest to come along -my mom! the three of us went to an early dinner at one of our local gastropubs and i decided to remix perhaps one of my favorite purchases of the summer –my leopard slip dress (last seen here). layering a tee underneath a dress is the easiest way (in my humble opinion) to create a new look especially as we start to transition seasonal pieces into fall. right now, i’m thinking i might need a couple more effortless slip dresses in my closet –this one, this one, and this one are top contenders 😉
