I am now at the point in my life where I have MANY cocktail dresses in my closet and no formals, Grab-A-Dates, or date parties to attend. What do I do with all of these dresses that have been worn only once, maybe twice?!
Last summer, I “recycled” several of mine and wore to weddings. The one below is a little French Connection number I bought at Perfect Touch and wore to my last Pi Beta Phi formal in January of 2010. At Formal it was worn with black tights, black sequin blazer, silver Bib necklace, smokey eyes and big hair. See here
Last summer, however, I wore it to an evening wedding in Charlotte, NC in July (See the bride's blog here). It was worn with simple black heels, hair down, and minimal jewelry. See here
Wearing dresses two different ways really comes to how you accessorize it. In my next post, I will go into more of these details!

.... Sorry about the amateur photos - Will be sure to start taking pictures of these things when I wear them!
Hi! Just found you! Yay!
