desperate to entertain



spotted dress worn as top - topshop, shorts - h&m, lace-up boots and bag - topshop

somehow i managed to turn this chunky dress into a top - there was some serious tucking in going on to make this look half decent. i just started thinking how i'd love a top like this dress and decided to try and fashion it for myself. much cheaper than buying a whole new top!

  8. Love how you've turned the dress into a top! I've done that on occasion - but most times all the folding and tucking gets the better of me haha

  9. Don't know how you managed to tuck a dress in but looks great. I love a button up dress.

  10. Whoa, you can't even see all the fabric you tucked in. I'd like to do that with some of my dresses too but I bet the skirt would start hanging off the bottom of my shorts-or something equally embarrassing!

    I like this outfit a lot. Great styling :)
