15-Love


Shirt: Jovovich-Hawk for Target
Skirt: Prince Tennis Skirt, Vintage
Shoes: Salvatore Ferragamo

This vintage tennis skirt from the Attic in Columbus, MS is one of my best finds. The fabric is light and breezy, the pleats are permanent, and there is an adorable row of buttons down the length of the skirt. So what if it was originally intended for playing tennis?

These lovely ladies, Caroline, Claire and Allie, came to visit me in Memphis a few weekends ago and when we stopped by the local Forever 21, we all fell in love with this floral, feminine, short sleeve dress. Now we'll show you how you can style one girly dress into four completely unique outfits.

Prim n' Proper

I love this preppy little outfit, but in retrospect I see that it kind of makes me look like a Stepford Wife. Oh well.

Prints Charming


Shirt: Mossimo, Target
Skirt: Forever 21
Shoes: Clarks

Mixing prints can be quite the challenge. It's a fine line between chic and tacky skate night. But you can make prints work together. It's always best to let one print take precedence over the other. Never wear two insanely busy prints. One should be simple and the other more complicated. The key to making this look work is coordinating the colors in the patterns.

The Scary Skirt


Shirt: H&M
Skirt: Forever 21
Shoes: Dexter, Payless

Here it is, the infamous "scary" skirt in all of its 1950's taffeta glory. Let me just say that I LOVE this skirt. However, it is a statement piece. If you want to wear a skirt such as this you kinda have to pair it with simpler pieces to make sure that you don't come off as costumey. I chose this skirt in a neutral color to make it wearable for everyday and I paired with a simple shirt and some casual cute wedges.
