SLIP DRESSES & WHY I NEED MORE

it's v rare that I wish I had more of something in my closet, but when it comes to slip dresses, 
I don't have enough of 'em.

this dress from H&M is the -only- one I own & I'm not sure why because slip dresses are the easiest #ootd and so versatilekeep it casual during day, or dress up for nighttime. I think they're perfect for date night too, esp. when paired w/ a lace-up shoe. 🔥

believe it or not, slip dresses are great transitional pieces to layer tops under or sweaters over, and as we start gearing up for fall fashion, those are the exact garments we should be shopping for.

below are some dresses I have sitting in shopping carts across various sites. (this is an online shopping habit of mine...I "window shop" via google windows, not IRL & then prioritize what I do/don't need as time goes on. hey, at least I'm teaching myself the importance or prioritizing, right?)

now brb, while I go debate which ones to buy! x

SHOP THE LOOK:

dress, H&M // sneakers, superga // sunnies, forever 21 (similar) // choker, ettika (similar)

  1. I've always loved using lighter dresses like this as layering pieces for seasonal transition. Great tips (also I totally do the online window shopping thing too!)

    1. maybe try the slip dress belted, or with a pair of heels - those two things can change the way the dress falls on you! x
