Spring Dress 3 Ways

March 1, 2021 /

I has been a minute since I posted a 3 ways to wear something (last time being this black dress) and I am following it with another dress, this time a print dress. I saw this dress on someone’s Instagram story I think and chose it in a polka dot pattern in blue. There are many colors to chose from and right now it is on sale for $25.99 which I think is what I paid.I really have been trying to find dresses that are versatile and can work for church and for play and that means I have to watch the neckline and skirt length. The ruffles are fun and the neckline is really pretty and I am quite pleased with the dress. I think this is my first successful dress purchase on Amazon.

With Leggings and Booties

The dress is a little short bare legged for church (and it is not spring yet) so to make it more appropriate for church, I added a pair of cropped white leggings, gem white cork Nickel and suede earrings and some tan booties. I typically buy my Nickel and Suede earrings when they are on sale as the earring of the month since they are not an inexpensive purchase.

I wore this for my new Goddaughter’s baptism and I felt very comfortable in it. I do love this blue color, it is so vibrant! There are ruffles at the sleeves, neckline and hem. They are just the right size too: not too overdone.

I actually had forgotten that this dress has pockets so I had my 10 year old take an extra picture. You can scroll down to the end and see some bloopers: he likes to take pictures of me looking weird.

With a Sweater and Boots

It’s all about making something work throughout the seasons! Add a sweater and some boots and you can wear this dress on a cooler day!

My mom gifted me these earrings for Christmas. They are a fun shape, like a feather and as light too. I can’t wait for this grass to turn green. It looks like dirt now!

With Sandals

It won’t be long till we can wear sandals. My choice was to do a simple print mixing with leopard earrings and sandals. I thought it would be fun. I am going to need a pedicure soon if this weather keeps up. It is pretty strange to have some weather in the 70s (I actually got bit by a mosquito!) but it might get cold again for a week or two. We sure are enjoying the sunshine and mild temps though.

I think the only negative thing I found with this skirt was that the skirt part seems to cling even when I was not wearing the leggings so a short slip helped with that.

Do you try to make your dresses work for different seasons? I am all about getting the most for my money so before pulling the tags off of something, I have been trying to try it with several things to make sure it is versatile and worthy of a space in my closet. I will leaving you with a laugh!
