Styling really bad purchase. Ordered chic linen dress from Pinterest, got a bad quality cotton nightgown. And it’s impossible to return. So let’s style it with what I have in my closet. Look 1 - add a scarf around waist + accessories. Look 2 - add a lacy scarf/overskirt around the waist + accessories. Lacy scarves around the waist and any lace details are hot trend for Summer and coming Fall. Look 3 - same as 2 + black cashmere sweater over shoulders - great day to night option. Look 4 - replace sweater with a white long vest + large fuzzy brooch. Look 5 - same as 3 but wearing the sweater with the dress and lace scarf. Pin the sweater on a side with a brooch. Look 6 - add a skirt over dress + accessories. The skirt should be shorter than a dress or with asymmetrical hemline. This will create layered effect making the outfit much more interesting. Look 7 - wear a shirtdress or cover up over the dress. Layers make the look modern and interesting. Look 8 - wear a denim dress like a duster over the dress. My denim dress is too tight to wear as a dress but it makes a great duster or over-layer in the fall and makes my original white dress look more expensive and interesting. Look 9 - add a linen blazer and a sweater over shoulders for modern stylish look. This zebra print sweater was my only new purchase this Fall. The rest of pieces came from my closet. Tell me if you like any of these looks! Follow for more easy tips and ideas on style and beauty for women over 40. LTKmidsize LTKstyletip LTKdresses
