Reader Spotlight: Take Hart

Name: Stephanie of Take Hart

What: Forever 21 Printed Wrap Dress

Remixing tip: Adding simple accessories to a main clothing piece, like this dress, can transform your look completely! Don't be afraid to add a color into the mix that isn't already there. Adding a brown skinny belt and wedges in the same brown hue took this color pallet in a completely different direction. Forget what you heard about mixing brown and black! For the opposite look, I played up the black in the pattern by adding a black skirt (to lengthen- tall girls, there's your tip!) and changed the style a bit by going with an edgier lace up bootie. Lastly, colored and patterned tights added the finishing touches to both of these very different styles. For the Autumn season, tights of all colors and patterns are my absolute favorite accessory and I'm guilty of wearing them with a dress almost every day!

I LOVE seeing two (or more) very different looks with the same outfit. It really helps me see the potential of my own closet. Thank you!
