One Skirt, Three Ways

When you’re on a budget, finding pieces that can do double – or triple – duty can be some of the best to splurge on. I ordered this skirt not realizing the potential it had. The draped sides and unique pattern drew my eyes, but once I got it home and started playing with it, I began to see the possibilities.

The first look is the skirt as designed – untucked, beautiful draping.

Then, I tucked in both of the draped sides, crossing them over each other and – ta da! Pencil skirt for office chic.

Lastly, I untucked one of the sides, leaving a beautiful asymmetrical drape that fakes a pencil skirt with a side ruffle, perfect for happy hours or a fun party.

Remember while you’re out shopping that sometimes a garment is more than meets the eye. Play with the fabric in the changing room – nip, tuck, manipulate, see what you come up with. A skirt like this can be worth its weight in gold when you realize its potential. Have fun shopping!
