Hey curvy girls all over the world,
You know I am a big fan of getting the most mileage out of my wardrobe. I love clothes that can work double duty by taking me from desk to dinner. Recently, I was on a family vacation and I took one of my favorite summer dresses with me. You guys may remember my post on this Jessica Simpson yellow striped dress (seen HERE). The first time, I wore it with a denim jacket since it was early spring and still a little breezy.
Well, while on my vacation last week, I decided to bring it with me but to wear it in a different way. I tapped into my inner Kris Kross and wore the dress backwards. Yup, I turned it around where the tag faces the front and it looked like a different dress. I always liked the exposed zipper on the back of the dress and thought it would be cute to turn it around.
I also switched up my shoes and accessories to go with the remixed look. I opted for a pair of pink suede pumps from Torrid, a tan tote and matching belt. This is not the first time I’ve done this. I’ve worn skirts backwards too. Sometimes the back of a piece is a little more interesting than the front and every now and again its good to wear your clothes in a different way than what they were intended for.
What do you guys think? Have you worn a piece of clothing backwards before?

You are so right the key to stretching any wardrobe is to wear items in as many ways as you can! I’ve tried this with a few times sweaters and it also looks fab:)
