Old Fit (n Flare)

We all have that favorite wardrobe piece in our closet that no matter what we refuse to let go of. That piece for me would be my favorite dress, a red fit and flare dress that I’ve had for literally over ten years! This dress is an old faithful that has fit me during weight ups and downs as well as style adjustments.

I hadn’t worn it in quite a long time so I decided it was time to wear and revamp the usual style in which I wear it. I had often paired this dress with simply a pair of black patent shoes. For my belt, black patent. I’m changing it up this time and doing something different with this dress. I’ve worn it a million times but styling a piece different makes it seem brand new all over again. Since I’ve been shopping my closet, my belt and shoes are items I’ve had for years or have worn in another outfit of the day.

The colors I decided to pie with the red are safari green and a sort of bronze. These colors shift the dress over to having a casual flair instead of more dressy like when I wear the black accessories. Side note, this dress is prof that you don’t have to spend a ton of money for quality. I got this dress from Forever 21. I initially purchased it solely because the fit and flare design (perfect for my shape) and the feminine detailing. Anyhoo, share what you think! What is your favorite wardrobe piece and what’s your favorite way to style it?
