I got this dress at Pac Sun and I love how you can style it many different ways. 

Dress up: I love pairing a dress with a slim fit blazer. I played around with colors, and settled on the pink/purple color combination. I added my tie up boots and lucky brand necklace to still make this look my style.

Dress down: I put my comfy sweater over. To top it off, I added my favorite new headband.

Do you guys love dressing up or down some of your favorite dresses?

  15. I love, love, loooove your hair in those first photos! Although... I think I lack patience to pull it off for myself. (And probably need longer hair...)

  16. Lovely velvet dress, the colour is stunning! It has a mysterious and magical touch together with your beautiful dark hair. I prefer the dress up version bot it's always amazing to have different possibilities of how to wear your favourite pieces. Love, Sara xx
