Most us of hide our fanciest frocks in the back of the closet until the holidays come round. On January 2, we typically return them to the depths. But instead of putting them into deep storage, why not top them with a light pullover & wear them to work?
My friend Monica created 3 great new outfits out of dresses that might otherwise be too dressy to wear to work by topping them with lightweight sweaters.
Amazing transformations! More clothes formerly hanging passively in the closet now earning their keep at work!
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful & inspiring creations with us, Monica!

Dress is by Molly from Mondo's Exchange for Changes
| Monica happened to notice these two items hanging next to each other in the closet & suddenly realized how beautifully they go together! Not only is the trim color along the neckline almost identical to the color of the dress, but we can see the dress peeking through its embroidered edging along the bottom of the sweater. A great outfit for work created from a fancy dress. >> | After 
Sweater is by Moth
