How to Dress Down a Nice Dress

May 6, 2016











Dress: ASOS (similar). Jacket: Old Navy. Sandals: Sam and Libby via Target. Purse: Coach (very similar). Dressing down a nice dress may seem like an odd concept to you, but for me it's all about getting the most bang for my buck. I hate buying a dress for a special occasion like a wedding, or graduation, and then only wearing it for that event. That's why it's nice to have a go-to way of making these dresses work for a casual setting too. For me, that's flats and a denim jacket. Okay, okay, so these may not technically be flats, but we'll count it. Speaking of these sandals, they are so comfortable. I never would have thought that a pair of sandals with a heel would be more comfortable than flat ones. The trick is getting ones with a chunky, low heel. I think it ends up adding just the right amount of support instead of making them uncomfortable. Not sure how that works, but the one thing I do know is that these are going to be my walking sandals for upcoming trips! 

How's your weekend looking? Tomorrow we're going to one of my coworker's symphony concerts, and that's pretty much it in the way of plans. Maybe drinks or dinner at a local pub we want to try one night. An entire day of doing absolutely nothing sounds so good to me right now, so that may be Sunday since I won't get to see my mom :( for those of you who do get to spend Mother's Day with your moms make sure to hug them extra tight!
