I visited the South Street Seaport to attend an event yesterday and it must of been one of the hottest days ever in New York City! Once I left the event, Rolland and I decided to hang out in South Street Seaport a little longer. I know, I know. I should of headed straight to the car and into the oasis of the air condition. But, I decided against it! Rolland thought it would be a great idea to have an impromptu photoshoot.
I loved the outfit I wore yesterday! I'll be honest, I'm the type of woman who loves finding alternative ways to get multiples uses out of my clothes. So I used a summer dress as a shirt!
Every woman should try it at least once! I normally do this during the winter months. But I felt like doing it that day. Here's a tip for pulling off this look. If your dress stops above your knees, it's the correct length to use. Any dress longer than that would be too long and bulk up in your pants.
I paired this dress with a white pant to allow the pattern of the dress to be the primary focus of my outfit. I finished off my look with a blue handbag and flat.
Even though it was a really hot day. I felt great and had fun! Ladies, if you haven't tried using your dress as a shirt, just do it. This one creative move will lead to other creative outfit ideas! Have fun and play with your style!
Xoxo,
Monique
