This is a remix post, but part of me seems to be stuck in repeat. Last year around this time I bought a sleeveless little black dress from UO and I wore it to death (literally, it's rather faded now). This year, I just bought an incredibly similar little black dress from UO and have already worn it twice (here and here). Little black dresses are rather notoriously easy pieces to wear and style, so this remix wasn't much of a stretch! Still even when an item is easy to wear, it's nice to find different ways to wear it and keep it feeling fresh.

Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.
I really like all these remixes. If you didn't post them together like this, I wouldn't guess they were all with the same dress.
ReplyDeleteI also really love the horse socks :)
love it with the crown and sparkly shoes... adorable!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites are the first one, the denim vest and the belted scarf look. It's fun to put all the looks together and see the versatility :)
ReplyDeleteI love the scarf in the first post, and I'm pleased to see an appearance from your equestrian socks ;D Those sparkly shoes are something special...
ReplyDeleteA girl can never have too many black dresses, despite what people tell you. They're just classic pieces.
Inspiring, as always.
i love the remix posts.
ReplyDeleteim a big fan of the look with the old gold boutique scary and the crown--very cool!
great mixes! i LOVE the vintage cape!
ReplyDeleteI heart your remix posts like WHOA. Super-cute styling! (though I am very partial to the red sweater/crown outfit)
ReplyDeleteOh wow - thanls for the remix post with so many ideas on how to restyle and make fresh outfits from just 1. Yay!

ReplyDelete~bb

ReplyDelete*total cuteness*
ReplyDeleteI especially love the one with the teal tights and the lace top. I really liked this remix!
ReplyDeleteWhy are all your posts truncated in RSS readers now? do not want :(

Love those posts like this. Really good ideas for mixing the same basic always different. Like all your matches. Especially the first one with that turban-like headband.
ReplyDeleteI love how you styles all the looks so differently! :) my faves are the last one with the red cardigan, the one with the scarf and the shoes from the first look! :) awesome styling keep it up!
ReplyDeletethey're all fabulous. thanks for the inspiration. i think you could seriously make a career out of being a stylist.
ReplyDeleteI love when you do these, because it inspires me to head into my closet and try everything to see if it looks cute! :)
ReplyDeletei just LOVE when you do remix posts! you're so good at making an item look totally different in each photo. i think my fav is the one with the white lace layered over the dress. i also love the dress all by itself- it's a perfect shape. i think it might be a seasonal fashion rut time, because i've been the same way lately- wearing a few items all the time. this post makes me want to try making it a little less obvious though! ~joelle
ReplyDeletenice outfits! very fresh

The belted scarf look and the horsey sock look are my favorite of these. Not that I don't love them all. But these two especially. The belted scarf look is just so perfect with the striped top! Wow. Love it.

Its amazing what accessories can do!!!

ReplyDeletei really do love your style. it's so quirky and original with much evident vintage inspiration! and as always, i am in awe of your long locks on hair! :)
ReplyDeleteI am IN LOVE with yr shoes in the last pic.
ReplyDeleteReally enjoyed the illustrations of historic women's fashions of the 19th century. The hats and hairstyles have so many details.
ReplyDeleteI love to read your remix-es post!
ReplyDeleteIts very inspiring and just goes to show that we don't need excessive amount of clothes to look come up with a different outfit.
Especially like the third and second last outfit!
you are incredibly amazing! i love how you took one dress and changed it up! you even made it look like a skirt or top at times. i am impressed :)
ReplyDeleteLoving the denim waistcoat look and the big stripped skirt!

They're all so great, I can hardly choose a favourite. I do really like the simple look of the first one. But then, I am a sucker for head scarves.
ReplyDeleteLoving all of these looks! So so great
ReplyDeleteI would have never known one dress could take so many shapes. Thanks to your creative genius. :0
ReplyDeleteI love that dress and all of the remixes and outfits with it. I might have to go out and get one myself.
ReplyDeleteomg i LOVE THIS POST!! you have sooo much style!!!! my favourite would have to be the one with the lace top!! but i love them alll!!
ReplyDeleteYour remixes are one of the things I love most about your blog.
ReplyDeleteI love how you wear dresses as skirts and tops as well.
I always try to, but it never looks right. How do you pick what pieces will work with your dresses to make them into skirts/shirts?

you are totally inspiring me to remix my black dresses.. i have too many in my closet and somehow i feel that i have a hard time styling them to look different each time.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing these..
Animated Confessions
Love love LOVE those Teal Tights...
ReplyDeletePS having an ASOS giveaway on my blog - dress would look just DARLING on you! Tangerine dream :)
PS North by Northwest? One of my top ten fav movies... actually Hitchcock takes up HALF of that list :)
ReplyDeleteWould love to meet someone called Roger Kaplan someday...
Aww you look so regal with the crown and sparkly shoes! (:
ReplyDeleteIt's really interesting to see that after years of low waisted items of clothing (inc. but not limited to jeans which showed the underwear), the high waist is back in fashion.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, it's all about the accessories, really! They make the outfit, don't they?
http://davidikus.blogspot.com/
no mistakes, you get it right every time. that is why you are a true fashion icon :) <3
ReplyDeleteI always love your remix photos! The last outfit is really cute XDD
ReplyDeleteI love all of these remizes as always. That lace top in the third one is beautiful I want it! My favourite is the fifth one though.
ReplyDeletefound you on weardrobe.com.. htbui.blogspot.com "favorite wedges" if you love my shoes please feel free to "heart" me for weardrobes shoe contest!! thank you! =) btw love how you paired the black dress with the yellow cropped top! =) cute
ReplyDeleteI also heart your remixes. Skirt on top of dress makes me smile. Where is my little black dress, I realized?
ReplyDeleteStunning outfits!
ReplyDeleteI love items of clothing like this! It's always very deceiving; it's possible to go out every day looking like you've bought a completely new outfit, but infact it's just a clever recreation of an old classic. I love all of these, especially the first vintage yellow cape!
ReplyDelete♥ Claire @ Jazzpad
this seems like the perfect black dress! its so versatile!!!
ReplyDeleteloved this little remix thing going on ! its always great to be able to find a nice investment piece you can wear the whole time..
ReplyDeleteyou should check out this dress by an indonesian local brand called cotton ink, i think it'll provide you a nice alternative to this black dress :)

wow! love love love what you did here! i really like seeing all different ways of wearing one look.
ReplyDeleteI love this remix! Honestly though, you're not in a rut or anything... little black dresses are a staple item - the more the merrier I reckon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely dress!! I really must do more with my little black dress...
ReplyDeleteThe scarf in the hair is so cute! How do you tie it? Mine always comes out a mess.
