Funky to Functional

I’ve come to realize the hard way that I’m not the type of girl that has the “perfect dress” for every occasion. Not that many girls are, but I especially forget to buy that cute LBD that’ll work for numerous occasions. I tend to splurge on the funkier pieces that make an outfit stand out. They catch my eye more often than the sensible pieces.

I’ve started making an effort to notice these diamonds in the rough that I have continued to pass over for the past couple of years. In the long run, investing in a few good multi-purpose dresses will be extremely beneficial when you’re running out the door to a fab party and need a grab-and-go outfit.

This polka dot dress is my transition piece from funky to functional. It was a mere 13.80 at Forever 21, and I can dress it up or down however I please. The fabric makes it effortlessly casual, but the fit makes it unbeatably cute and dress-up worthy.
