How To Style A Party Dress For Day

11.11.13




Dress - c/o eShakti  //  Shirt - Esprit  //  Boots & Silver Bracelet - Threadsence  //  Necklace - F21  //  Cuff Bracelet - Ebay  //  Tights & Socks - HUE 

Choosing this gorgeous dress from eShakti was easy.  It was the one that gripped me in its beauty and didn't let go.   What's lovely is that eShakti allows you to completely customize the sizing on your order, so my frame which has a hard time fitting into women's clothing was completely happy in the perfectly fitting dress that arrived on my doorstep.

But finding places to wear a fancy dress isn't always the easiest task, so I decided not to let this beauty stay hidden in my closet.  By adding a denim shirt and combat boots the whole outfit was instantly drawn down from fancy night to casual day. 

The only thing I regret is not doing something a bit more elaborate with my hair, but alas I am a mama short on time, and the odds were not in my favor this day.  In retrospect I think I would've done a faux hawk like before.

  4. It's so hard to choose from their site!!! I love all their clothing! But I love this dress called: Her fifties colorblock dress! It'd be sooo cute during the summer and make it all bundle up in the Fall/Winter season! You look gorgeous by the way!

    1. You should. It's a prefect piece and always changes up an outfit. I love a good denim shirt.

  7. I like to layer things on top, too - a tank or shirt or sweater depending on the weather. Choosing different footwear can really change the look, too.

    1. It's amazing how much shoes can change a look isn't it?

  10. I've never tried to dress down a fancy dress, but I like your method a lot! That dress is awesome, btw. I'm kicking myself right now for not buying that style when they had it in green last year.

    1. Thanks. Ooooh, green, that sounds super great. I love blue personally, but green is a color that has attracted me lately.

  11. I dress it down by not adding jewelry and pairing it with simple shoes and tights rather than fancy shoes. I also keep my hair style simple.
