I've said before that a dress is my quick-fix for days when I don't have much time and feel like I have "nothing to wear". But what happens when you do open your closet and a dress just doesn't cut it? Change it up by layering a skirt over the dress!

You may remember this red dress from just a few posts back. It's amazing and convenient how little I needed to do in order to create a completely different look! It just goes to show, ladies, that a little trial-and-error when it comes to putting together pieces can give you so much more in the end. I actually managed to pull together this look in less than five minutes - and it wasn't even the throw on the first thing I see situation.


If you are looking to expand your wardrobe without stretching your budget, I definitely suggest trying on different pieces together. Sometimes, you will be surprised by how many "new" looks you can actually get from the clothes that are already in your closet.
