4 Ways To Wear It: Wrap Dress


This wrap-dress from Target is one of my favorite pieces. It's just so easy to wear and it looks professional, which is great on those days that I just don't have time to think about what to wear in the mornings. I actually bought this dress the same day that I found out I got my first professional job, so it even has sweet memories for me.

Target no longer sells this dress, but I did find some similar at The Limited, Banana Republic, and  GAP.

Here are four ways to wear it:


With A Statement Necklace

Necklace: eBay (similar)
Sandals: Target








 With Pattern

Scarf: F21 (similar)
Tights: Alternative Apparal
Boots: Halogen (similar)

With a Sweater

Sweater: F21
Necklace: eBay (similar)
Boots: Halogen (similar)






























With a Vest

Vest: Old Navy (similar)
Boots: Halogen (similar)
Necklace: Vintage





























Which way is your favorite?  Do you have any versatile items that you continue to wear over and over again?

    I love these types of posts, because I love creating as many outfits as possible with a signature piece. I love the scarf outfit, because the tights and scarf patterns are so fun together!

      Thanks Ashley! I wear my clothes over and over again (like most people, I suppose), so it's fun to look back and see all the different ways I've worn things.

    I love this! The first and second looks are my favorite. I love those patterned tights/leggings too.

      Thanks, Amanda! I've gotten the impression Bubble necklaces are kind of "over," but I still like the way they look, so I'm going for it!

    That second way you wear it... With the patterned tights and scarf!?
    WOW!

    I love ALL looks, but that's my favorite!!!!

    I'm very versatile with my clothes. People think the item's new every time. Which makes me laugh because I didn't think I changed it up *that much*! :)

    I love this dress and these looks!!!!

    I love that dress. I own a similar black wrap dress, same material too, from The Limited. It is a classic piece that goes with so much. First look is my favorite. I also like the second look with the 2 diff. patterns.

    I also followed suit with the challenge today and remixed 3 different dresses, actually.

    ooo i love when bloggers do posts like this- it's so fun seeing how far you can take a dress. My favorite one is the second one- i love the different patterns between the tights and scarf. it's so artsy and fun. and i like the third one too because i love the collar popping out!

Thanks so much for your comment! I reply to my comments via email, but I can't do that if you are a no-reply blogger (if you don't know what that means, you probably are). Check out this tutorial to fix it!
