Look of the Day - The Prom Dress

- Black dress - Vintage red belt - Spring blue shoes - Vintage purse -


This is what I wore to work yesterday.
I've had this dress forever - more than 10 years.
It was a gift from an ex-boyfriend and used to be long - down to my ankles.
I had never really worn it because the dress looked too formal.
Indeed. My sister borrowed it for her prom.
Last year I took it to the tailor and had it shorten.
Don't you love it when you give a second life to old clothes- or still new in this case?

  1. Very pretty in this second life dress. The belt is a nice touch of color.
    I could wear it again...for my high school reunion !
    Well done.

  2. I like that it was from your ex and you made it something new...that's so fun! usually people throw things like that away, but you did something much better with it!

    cheers.
