When London Times tapped me to style their Metallic Stripe Dress for day and night for only $100, I immediately jumped at the chance, not only do I love their dresses (seen here, here and here) but I love a good budget challenge. They gifted me with the dress, and sent over a $100 American Express to complete the task. I immediately knew I wanted to go simple on accessories and let the dress pop on it's own so for day I played with a belt and playful pumps and for night I went casual 'cool' with boots and a scarf, just enough to make the dress stand out. Of course no look is complete without a bold lip, and since Oxblood is 'all the rage' I couldn't resist.
What do you think? How would you style it?
For Day - London Times Dress, Belt Goodwill $3.99, Shoes Bakers $39.99
For Night - Boots Marshall's $40 (On Clearance), Scarf Marshall's $5 and London Times Dress
Grand Total = $88.98
