What's something in your closet you are holding on to, but haven't worn because you're not sure how to style it? I've had this jacket for a few years and only wore it once. I love the fabric, and the style of it, but I don't wear a lot of jackets like this. I'm probably holding onto it because it was from a sample sale and they never made the style, so it's one of a kind. But I'd love to figure out how to wear it.

What's something you get compliments on regularly? That necklace from my H
Adlove - love that dress - I agree with Kare it would be worth altering. I think adding a couple v-shaped panels to the sides would work well, and if in the right fabric, go with the design too. As for the romper, it's cute but I think it's missing a belt or something to make the look. I like the fit though.
Oh gosh, thanks y'all! It is a side zipper. The little cups in the bustier are just really small. I already removed the underwires so my boobs could go underneath them hah (tmi?) but it zips and everything it's just like... when I breathe in I feel like I'm spilling over the top. Which is rare, let me tell you!
I might take it to my favorite tailor next time I'm back home though to see if he has any ideas. Here is a view of the back. It might be a good idea to add panels in the sides, I just worry about the skirt part... But I guess he could just detach it and re-gather it if that makes sense?

What does "everyone else" have in their wardrobe that you don't? Kendra Scott anything
Name a trend you love but would never try: Leather pants
Name a trend you love and wear a lot:
Bubble? Lol
What's something you get compliments on regularly? I got a ton on the bow back top. And the bubble, I have never seen it worn here in real life. I'm not kidding.
adlove - does it have a back zipper? If so I'm thinking you could get it removed and do some sort of keyhole with a looser button closure at the top.
ETA: Or you could have them dip it into a low v in the back with a shorter zipper that may hit you in a spot that wouldn't be as tight...?
If it's a size zipper my only thought is to remove both side seams and had a coordinating fabric sewn in on each side.
The dress is so pretty - would be worth it to alter if you could.
i agree. there must be something that can be done! kare has some good ideas. the dress looks amazing on you, and its very unique. it would totally be worth it!

It's a little see through and really have no idea how to wear it, but it's really cute What does "everyone else" have in their wardrobe that you don't? pencil skirts.

What's something in your closet you are holding on to, but haven't worn because you're not sure how to style it? a "leather" pencil skirt. it's not so much that I don't know how to style it, it's that I really never have an occasion to wear it.

What's something in your closet you are holding on to, but haven't worn because you're not sure how to style it? I have a few off the shoulder sweaters that I always feel funny in - they never look right with a tank under them and I end up not wearing them a lot. Going to try again when it gets colder here.
What does "everyone else" have in their wardrobe that you don't? Animal print - aside from some unders I can't think of a single animal print item that I own. I'm going to take a baby step and get a belt one day.
Name a trend you love but would never try: If I like a trend, I'll try it, so I can't think of anything. I won't be trying colored tights or any colored jeans unless they're a dark color. All the yellow, red, pink, mint, etc. skinnies just look unflattering to me.
Name a trend you love and wear a lot: Jeans and boots. I'll never tire of jeans and boots. I feel like it's becoming classic instead of trendy and I'm fine with that!
What's something you get compliments on regularly? My Steve Madden Intyce boots. I swear I've never gotten so many compliments or random stops to ask where I've gotten an item, but 3 years later and people still ask about them. I thought by now everyone would recognize that dang boot, but I forget everyone isn't on here!

I never wear it b/c I don't know how exactly to style it so it's appropriate for my lifestyle and my age (28).
What does "everyone else" have in their wardrobe that you don't? Chambray!! But, I've put myself on a spending freeze. So, won't be getting it any time soon.
Name a trend you love but would never try: Leather leggings. Well, let me take that back, I would love to try them. But, again, leather leggings don't really go with my day job, and I don't go out enough to justify them.
Name a trend you love and wear a lot: Leopard. Omg I have leopard everything now! (Except a leopard cardi--which I'm coveting!)

or this ring

Name a trend you love but would never try: bubbles... they look nice on everyone but I'm pretty sure they would look ridiculous on me

What's something you get compliments on regularly? my hair
