tuxedo topper
Posted on February 5, 2014 in Outfits
When it comes to special occasions, I have the tendency to buy an outfit only to never wear it again. Well, not this year. Part of the reason why I set a monthly shopping budget was to work with my wardrobe in new ways. Since I bought this red lace dress for Valentine’s Day last year, it’s about time I bust it out again for a remix.
The easiest way to transform an outfit? Top it with a blazer — brownie points if it’s of the tuxedo variety. You add instant polish and class, and best of all, that special little dress lives to see another day.

such a sweet dress, looks so good paired with the tuxedo blazer and this is a great idea! I don’t like the idea of buying special occasion dresses only to have them sit in the closet for the rest of the year, either!

I love this whole outfit! The dress is darling and I love that you paired it with the leopard pumps! Perfection!
Lovely look! I totally do the same thing – buy a dress for something and never wear it again! But, like you, I’m trying to be a little more practical this year and re-mix things from my closet together! Love that necklace by the way – such a cute addition!

great look! Loving the blazer especially! I’m in the same boat as far as buying something and never wearing it again, I was about to buy a dress for VDay, but then decided that I should just wear something I already have.
