When I purchased this panther print dress from Anthropologie ("on sale" for $100) last February to wear on Valentine's day, I knew then and there I would wear it at least two more times - on my Birthday, and on Christmas Eve. That brings my cost per wear to $33, which isn't bad for a special occasion dress. However, I think my goal for this year will be to wear it when it's warmer out!

Yay for Sean! I have a nephew named Sean who spells it the same way so for some reason I had to do a double take. These photos are fab but not NEARLY as fab as you are in that dress!

I do love that dress! And yep, $33 is not bad for a special dress! My cost per wear on occasion dresses is a lot higher, ha ha

I have loved seeing you restyle this dress since you bought it. It's such a statement piece, and yet every time you wear it, you manage to make it look totally different. I have to admit that, although I don't calculate cost per wear, I no longer buy anything unless I can think of at least three different ways to wear it while I'm in the store. With a packed closet, it's just not worth adding anything if you can't restyle it over and over again.

I ADORE that dress! It's so pretty on you. unique and definitely worth the splurge for a special occasion dress. I still have a few pieces hanging around from Anthro trying to get my monies worth out of them.
ReplyDeleteI just love that print! And yay for getting some pictures done. Love the red pumps with this too.
ReplyDeleteOn sale for a 100 is over my usual budget but the dress is fabulous and you look marvellous in it!
ReplyDeleteAnd that… is priceless.
Love that dress one you! The heels give the outfit that perfect pop of color!
ReplyDeleteKisses!

That panther print is INSANE!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun print dress! I bet you can dress it down with a demin jacket & some kicks. I done that a couple of times with my dressier dresses and it always seems to do the trick of dressing something down.
