The Maxi Skirt: Reinvented

BCBG Maxi Skirt (worn as a dress, see a similar find here), Celine Pouch, Asos Sandals, Jennifer Fisher Spike Cuff, Vintage Belt and Bracelets, Ariel Gordon Pinky Ring.

Over the Holiday weekend I struggled a bit on what to wear for Sunday brunch. After flipping through my closet one too many times I pulled out a favorite hot pink maxi skirt (seen here) and decided to try it as a dress. To my surprise it worked by adding a simple vintage belt I found at Ava + Aliria. This little wardrobe discovery has reminded me to dig deeper in my closet and experiment more with what I already have.

That's a great reminder for everyone's wardrobe. Dig deeper, remix, and restyle. The outfit is lovely. I especially love the vintage belt.
