Hello all, happy Sunday. This is going to be the first of two posts today as I had meant to post this yesterday and completely forgot! Anyways, I hope your weekend has been fabulous so far and you are enjoying a nice, relaxing Sunday morning.

As someone who has gone through a pretty dramatic dress size change in the last couple of years, as well as just starting out in the real world, my budget is a little tight. I don't have the luxury to have a very extensive wardrobe, which means I need to make all of the pieces in my closet work double duty and be appropriate for multiple occasions.

This sundress, for example, I bought because it is very cool and perfect for a hot summer day. With sandals, it doesn't need any accessories and is casual and fun. I repurposed it with knee high boots and a sweater for fall, which worked perfectly for work. Now, I wanted to make it even nicer so it worked for a party or Friday night drinks.

This is one of those outfits that works perfectly transitioning from work to drinks. You can wear the black heels with a cardigan or jacket for work. Then, for drinks, add in your bling and a structured clutch and you're ready! The key to transitioning any outfit is always in your accessories. Make something business professional with a tailored jacket and heels. Make it more fun for your evening with big jewelry and a fun clutch. Until next time, XO
