Outfit Rewind: 60s Floral Dress

I'm going back to my first year of blogging for today's rewind piece!! It's always so incredible looking back at the pieces that started this blog! The photos are obviously not the most amazing quality, but that was when I was using my point and click and before I even owned an iPhone. Original post date: 6/21/10

My $1 dress, after a little cutting and pasting, turned out looking like the below.

For the second wear, I switched it up a bit.

Check out the newly styled look...

To break up a bit of the pattern while still keeping it feminine, I added a layer skirt on top of the dress!

One of my favorite summery skirts by Trina Turk, layered on top of the upcycled dress from four years ago, makes this rewind look even better the second time around!

A pair of Candie's mules and Urban Outfitters sunnies round out the vintage-y look! I love how it looks!

The skirt over-the-dress move is such a slam dunk. You might be seeing this trick again soon!
