Don't you love when you rediscover a favorite? The last time I wore this dress it was Thankgiving and I paired it with navy tights and camel high boots. Gorgeous, but not appropriate for summer. This top was an easy fall favorite and so wearing it as a top for this time of year, seemed like a great idea. The flip & switch doesn't work for every outfit, but luckily, the pencil skirt that I thought to tuck the dress into was long enough to cover the dress - score!

Have you ever doubled up on uses for one of your favorite pieces?

FLORAL SWING DRESS

Happy Monday. Keeping it short & sweet today (much like this dress)! I picked it up on sale at my local H&M for $7. Yes, seven dollars. The dress is available online as well for tag price. Click the link above, or icon below for a direct link! 

Now the real question, what was your favorite ad from last night? I loved the Always "#LikeAGirl" ad! I saw it a few months ago online and loved it then too. Such a powerful message, but "tugging on the heart strings" seemed to be a common trend this year.

Thoughts?

I saw a great look on Pinterest last week that showed pairs a sweater 

dress with a patterned skirt. The look featured a skirt with a narrow silhouette, 

but I spiced it up for daytime with some layers. I would be curious to see what 

I can do with a straight skirt and a fitted sweater dress, in my head it seems 

appropriate for nighttime- so i'll save this trick :) 

What's your favorite Pinterest trick?

Hope you guys are preparing for the holidays well- gift guides will be coming your 

way soon for my last minute shoppers!
