Midwest Wednesdays + Evolve

Tomorrow I get to rock this fly vintage dress for Hand Crafted Happy Hour at Bos Meadery.

The highlighted maker is Evolve ~ where this fabulous dress comes from!

Evolve is a Madison based online boutique specializing in vintage and recycled women's fashion. Rachel, the owner and curator of Evolve is such a doll! I visited her apartment to try on this dress and I got to see her place filled with clothing, shoes and accessories, her apartment is a little piece of heaven! In honor of making your clothes work and getting the most miles out of them, I took this vintage dress and styled it FOUR different ways.

^^ No. 1 Classic & Dressy ^^

What Can I say, this dress doesn't really need much, there is twinkle of silver threads woven into the navy blue fabric. The floral is outlined in sliver as well, giving this dress a very glam feel. Simply added a fab pair of shoes, simple jewelry and a sequin clutch. Ready for a fancy night out!

Juxtapose this fancy dress with a bomber jacket, kick ass heels, a silver collar and silver clutch from Evolve.

Done and done, concert or dinner, you're ready.

v v No. 3 A Daytime Gallivant v v

Make your night time clothes work for you in the day! A denim jack is a STAPLE on mine. You can make anything into a casual look with it! I choose these great nude lace-up flats and matching belt to give this dress some warmth. Lastly a little brown clutch for your lipgloss and phone. Now get going to your lunch date :)

v v No. 4 A bit of Bohemian v v

Think of this out of the box look as a bit of J. Crew mixing. You know how they love to put some unconventional things together, but they work somehow? This is one of those times. I love the floral in this dress mixed with the texture of the faux fur cream vest. By adding warmth to this dress with a nude belt, brown clutch and espadrilles in all the best neutral colors it makes this look another casual daytime feel.
