From Casual To Cute The Transformation

You know you have a shopping problem when you can pop a tag off of a dress and go shopping just by walking in your closet.  That was what I did when I had to find an outfit to wear to a concert then directly to the club. With a last minute ticket to the K. Michelle concert,  I was in a panic because I did not know what to wear.  Casual and comfortable was the key for the standing room concert but I did not want to dress down for the afterparty.  Finally I decided to wear a dress that can be dressed down or dressed up.

Need to dress down a look?  Try my three piece casual combo!  Combat boots, a leather jacket, and a beenie can make any outfit edgy and casual instantly.  This was my choice for the holly vertical stripe bodycon midi dress.

For the after party I converted my casual hipster look to an edgy club look just by changing my shoes.  The neon pop of color contrasted my dress and really complimented my lip color. {Crissy tip: use eyeliner pencil as lipstick for a custom perfect shade as seen here}

This dress I bought in July from the main range of Boohoo for $30 in a size 14.  I know this dress is sold out but GREAT NEWS,  today launched the addition of plus size items to boohoo.com!

So which do you prefer?  The Real or the Steal?  Close I can say the Real deal looks better and I think its cool with the strap velcro closure but being that I spent LESS than a third of the cost, I'd buy the steal all over again!
