What I Wore Vol. 2: The Dress With a Hole

Firstly, thank you everyone for all your support and encouragement with regards my first “What I Wore” post 🙂 I’m still not a snappy dresser (and I still suck at having photos taken) so weekly posts, as suggested by some of you will not be imminent. But I had loads of fun the first time around, so I will have these posts pop up now and again 🙂

What I wore to work quite recently was a dress with a hole.

I’d worn this one quite a few times, without thinking about it too much, but it was only when someone remarked to me that it was an interesting detail, that I actually paid attention. You see, whilst the back is all holey and exposed, the front of it is quite demure and office friendly. It makes a good outfit for a work-to-play occasion 🙂

The dress is fitted with a simple V neckline in the front which is what makes it deceptive.

This is how it looks from the front. Simple and demure.

For work, I toss over a long cardigan for something a little more casual, or a blazer if I’m feeling more formal. For after work drinks or dinner, remove the cover up, and flash a little skin 😉

The obligatory stiff as a board shot hehe… This is quite possibly turning out to be a signature of mine 😉

I’d love to find more interesting dresses like these but I couldn’t tell you where I got this one because it was a gift from a lovely friend. I don’t know how she does it, but she seems to guess my size quite accurately. Its freaky! 😛

Dress: Gift

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Mini as before

Shoes: Clarks as before

Do you wear interesting clothing pieces like this? How do you feel about flashing a little skin?

I like wearing something clothes with unexpected details like this, especially something that can be worn for either work or play. It is surprisingly hard to find however. Gotta keep my eyes peeled 😉
