Wrap, Drape and Knot

Hello dolls,

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend.

This post is a revamped version of the "Twist,Drape and Knot" post especially dedicated to people like me who sometimes get clumsy with tying a wrapper or people who would like to explore the comfort of the outfit for other occasions and environments. What I did basically was to replace the wrapper with a wrap skirt which is easier to wear/tie. The skirt is knee length and as a single piece can be combined with other wardrobe staples for different looks.






 
I tried a different styling by pairing my wrap skirt with a lace crop top, crystal white layered necklace, purple patent shoes and a black purse.



My sister who got inspired by the "little white dress" post and wore her wrap skirt over her little black dress for a casual look. You can try yours with a tank top instead.

In another look, she wore a crop jacket over the wrap skirt for the office.


I got creative with the blouse too. For one of my clients who wanted something pretty for a day out with her little girls but didn't want to appear too "Mummish"(lol), I mixed the blouse with a plain fabric for the bodice and added a cut out detail on the sleeves instead of the puff sleeves. This piece is very versatile with endless styling possibilities.

Peaches and Cream

Hi dears

I'm continuing with re-purposing an old outfit; my little white dress is getting another day out! The cream lining of the dress makes it more of an off-white/cream colour than white. It is paired with a peach circle skirt and a blazer of a deeper shade which has a brooch of an even deeper shade. These colours are seriously contrasted by my shoes achieving a colour block look. I chose to carry a clutch in the same colour family instead of another contrasting colour. Just goes to show that there are endless possibilities with a little black dress or white dress as in this case.

The white dress is available for sale in different sizes, and the skirt is avail in other pastel shades and sizes.

The Little White Dress

Hello dearies,

Today's post is all about making outfits versatile. I recently went through my wardrobe and discovered I had quite a number of short dresses I hadn't worn in years. The reason for their lack of use I guess would be length (makes me wonder why I bought or sewed them in the first place, *:-?). Most of these dresses were only appropriate for nights out/evening events which I really don't attend much of. Anyway, I found it hard to part with them so I started thinking of how to re-purpose them for other events such as church, work, meetings and lunches.


One of such dresses is the little white piece I'm wearing in this post which I made a while back. I have simply transitioned it from one mode to the other by wearing a blue high-waisted pencil skirt over it and matching with appropriate accessories. I have basically taken the same item of clothing from a daytime look to an evening one. How's that for recycling your wardrobe!
