tuesday twist: purple maxi dress {part 2}.


This week for Tuesday Twist I've layered a soft knit sweater over my purple maxi dress to achieve a more relaxed & subdued look. Notice how much the sweater tones down the bright purple? This will be a perfect way to carry over this dress & my other maxi dresses into the fall!

Different ways to style a maxi dress:
Wear it with a belted sweater!


 Purple maxi dress: Forever 21 (old). Sweater: Urban Outfitters. Skinny belt: Urban Outfitters. Cognac sandals: Aldo Shoes (similar here). Necklaces & bracelet: borrowed.

My beauty giveaway is open until Monday, so don't forget to enter here!

And a big thank you to my dear friend Jo, who took time out of her vacation to get these photos to me in time! Check out her Facebook page here!

xo,
Jacy
