Chiconomical

If you notice the pictures carefully, you'll realise, this is more of a later-post. I wore this outfit sometime before navratri, but somehow, never managed to feature it. So here it is. I love love love this dress. More than that, I love the sentiment behind it. I absolutely adore the dear friend who gifted it to me. (Not to mention managed to handle all the crazy 'I can't find anything' rants!). Thank you soo much!! You know who you are! ;)









While this dress has featured once before on the blog (It was masquerading as a skirt back then) I have a few issues with the fit. So what do you do when you're too lazy to alter clothes, layer it with a scarf!! Oh yea, I can be lazy when I have about 10 assignments to be completed with unrealistic deadlines. Add a charm bracelet, flats and your ready to hop out of the house in a matter of seconds. No extra Glam-up required, thank you very much!

Do you still adore peplums? How do you deal with little alteration errors your simply too lazy to deal with? Talk to me in the comments below. Or join the conversation on facebook!!

I have the most amazing friends! One of my dearest friends bought me a peplum dress recently as a present, and I've been dying to wear it! Sadly, being the skinny, disproportionate girl that I am (not that I'm complaining) I need to get it altered. But since I couldn't wait, I decided to be a bit clever and add a lace tee to it to cover the ill-fitting bits. I have to say I'm extremely pleased with the overall look. Honestly, I had to force myself to slip out of this once I got back home (this from a girl whose only thought are comfy pjs after long days), I loved it that much! 









I added my blue statement necklace to balance out the deep navy of the skirt. I need to invest in a few bright key pieces for the future. (Just one of the things blogging your outfits teaches you!)  I wore glasses because my eyes were too worn out for lenses. The fact that they go with the colors of the outfit is just a happy coincidence. Overall, a look that I'd definitely try again.

Do you have any dresses you've converted to skirts to overcome fit issues or just add a bit of freshness to your wardrobe? Tell me all about that in the comments below or on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest Bloglovin!
