You know when I bought this dress, I wasn't really thinking about all of the potential possibilities or remix options.

Basically, I saw it on Kendi, ran to my nearest Target and highjacked her style {I'm good at that}. It's surprisingly turned into quite the little remix horse during the last  30 for 30. After realizing I could wear it under a skirt, I wasn't sure I had any other tricks up my sleeve. Then I spied Angeline sporting this dress backwards and I knew I had to try it!

I really like the high, straight neckline that wearing it backwards created. I'm thinking you may see it again sometime soon.

Pin It!

  1. What a fun idea!  I'll have to try it backwards, too.  Do you like the way it looks from behind?

  2. I did that just today (wore a skirt over a dress). I thought I would be forever adjusting my clothes, but I wasn't. Yeah! Also, I'm curious ... you said your wearing this dress backwards but I want to know what it looks like from the back?

  3. Love it! I have the green patterned one - I love the pattern, but the fit on the front takes some fussing, so this is the perfect solution.

  5. Oh, I just love the olive color with the cheetah belt. It's one of my favorite combinations. 

    Also, I love how you wore this backwards! It's always so fun to find out that a favorite piece can be manipulated another way!

  6. Need more leopard in my life, so I love the belt. I'd really like to find leopard, flat peep-toes.

  7. Aw MAN, I knew I should've grabbed that dress when I had the chance.  This backwards look is right up my alley.  K I'm at least jumping on the belt if they have one at my Target, I've been pining for an affordable leopard print waist for awhile now..

  11. Brava!  It does create a nice neckline, and I do love the leopard belt.  Oh, and it's okay.  I highjack Kendi's style sometimes, too.

  12. I thought this dress looked familiar but couldn't figure out why. Haha. What a great way to remix a dress!

  13. Love the look of this backwards, you're making me want to go try all my dresses on flipped around!  And I can't believe that belt is from Target, I hope it was a recent purchase because I'm going to go search for it ASAP!

  15. Love this look- it's so creative that you thought to wear it backwards, that's a great way to extend a current wardrobe. And I love the touch of the leopard belt!

  17. Nice! I wish I could have found the solid green one on sale at my store, but alas, only the yellow print was on sale. It looks even better on you. :)

    And for those that are wondering...it looks FAB from behind.
