Last month I won this a dress from Marie Denee’s Simply Be
Dress Giveaway and since I am the worst at buying what I deem to be basic items
for my wardrobe, I decided to get this black faux leather dress. It is the perfect
piece that can go from casual to dressy with the change of a shoe. Versatile
and simple pieces can act as the cornerstone of a wardrobe. When I found out I
won the dress I looked at every bright, shiny, printed dress before I decided
to go with this dress in my favorite shape and material. I have a tendency to go for the bright, shiny
objects forgetting about the basics, leaving a few holes in my wardrobe.
I opted to go casual with the piece
and paired the neutral dress with my leopard slip on sneakers. I was extraordinarily
comfortable and felt chic. This dress is beyond easy to wear so I know that I
will get a ton of use out of it.
Is there anything that you are bad
at buying? Are you working to change this?
Thank you for reading!!!

Congratulations on your win, Jeneise! That dress is awesome and looks great on you! I tend to do that with shoes. I always seem to be drawn to 5 inch heels knowing that I can't wear them everyday. I am working on buying more basic everyday shoes like flats and even sneakers every now and then. LOL!

I do too Delilah!!! I also buy the most impractical shoes and wonder why I don't have what I am looking for. For example I never, every buy black shoes... it's so ridiculous! I have to do better.
DeleteYes I am very bad at doing the exact same thing!!!! This dress is a perfect basic and you rocked it!!! I love the notion that it can be dressed up or down. And I wish I could have gotten my hands on this hot little number.
ReplyDeleteThank you Timeka! I am trying to do better, but I especially like to put as many versatile pieces in my wardrobe as possible. I love that I could dress it up and down too.
DeleteI love it!!!!!! This year and last year I've gotten MUCH better about buying more basics but I still have a problem with when I like something getting it in every color then when I hate it I have to trash like 3 or 4 of the same item in different colors lolllll
ReplyDeleteMe too! Me too! I am the worst at that! I am trying to do better in making sure I buy basics and practical items. Or at least I hope I am... LOL!
DeleteSo cute and edgy.
ReplyDeleteThank you Alissa!
