Capsule wardrobe week 20#

This week I'll be mixing 2dresses, 2 shirts and a skirt for 5 outfits. Here we go...
Blue linen dress with lace detail altered by me - brogues

Little black dress - denim shirt - brogues

White shirt - blue linen dress - brogues

Denim shirt - skirt tailored by me - tan leather belt - broques

White shirt - red scarf- skirt tailored by me- brown leather belt - broques

I found out that dresses are not so easy to use in a capsule wardrobe .Other than that I feel that I want to alter this dress a bit more ...to a skirt!!!

  1. But it's such a nice dress! On the other hand, perhaps you could get both a new skirt and a new top/blouse out of the dress if you do decide to alter it. :)

  2. These are all fun looks--you've got marvelous creativity. And I hope you keep your dresses as dresses--there are few things more fun than a flirty dress when the temps and social situations hit!

  3. Angie - I agree, your blue dress is so pretty as a dress. But it is fun to be creative too, and you do it very well! Love the wide leather belt on you. xoxo- Patti

  4. Thanks for the ideas.I'll keep it as a dress and maybe belt it next time. And definitely iron it more.But it's linen so... you get the picture.
