Convertible...

It was another hot day in the neighborhood yesterday... not nearly as humid and treacherous as the previous, but pretty uncomfortably close. It stormed for approx. four seconds right after I took these pictures.
I bought this summer dress on a shopping adventure earlier this week. I meandered through Forever21 per usual, and kept finding myself attracted to floral on a black ground (I am up to three dresses like that... remember this one?). This dress is a little more structured than I like, esp from Forever, only because they don't generally fit me correctly. But the pretty and delicate back cut out, as well as the button details, and the fact that it is a dress (one piece--nice and easy) made me buy it and wear it almost immediately.

I have to cover my shoulders and such at work, and with the temperatures rising awfully quickly this summer, the dresses are getting more and more open just like my new lovely little dress. To make it appropriate and acceptable, I made it convertible. I added a Primark favorite of mine (a Chambray impostor), and tied it at the waist to add a little... Randizzle

How do you bring summer dresses and attire to the workplace?
