Maximizing my Maxi

Did you know I have had these shoes since I was a senior in HS!  First time wearing them!

I'm not as glamorous as Beyonce with this wind blown hair thing!

I had to add this pic in, my photographer (Ryan) who is over 6 foot tall  got down in the most hilarious position to shoot this pic and it was clearly hilarious!

Dress: Jessica Simpson, similar//Shoes: Express (old), similar//Sweater: Old Navy (last season), similar

I had visually planned my Friday outfit in my head Thursday night, but when I woke up Friday morning that idea quickly had to change, the cold rain was going to make wearing this halter maxi dress a little bit chilly. Per usual I was running late, so I had to think fast on how to make my summer frock transition to this cold and rainy day. That’s when I decided to make my maxi dress a maxi skirt. I folded the halter part down, and since the waist was elastic with a draw string I just tied it tight (to avoid any wardrobe malfunctions). I threw on a black sweater and some gladiator sandals to complete the look. Instantly I was warm put together, and still late.
The best part about this outfit is that my dress now serves double duty, dress or skirt. I love that it opens up my closet to new possibilities! I really wish that the wind would have been a little more cooperative...I was hoping for a glamours natural windblown look...instead I got hair in my face!
