This $48 Dress Is So Good, I'm Not Even Embarrassed I Wore It 3 Times in a Week

I'm going to make an assumption: when you buy a new piece clothing, it's with the intention to wear it more than once. Save for occasionwear you're purchasing specifically for a wedding, birthday, or special event, I think it's safe to assume that when you buy something new, the idea is to get a lot of wear out of the item (and to be clear, I'm all about re-wearing special occasion pieces from jumpsuits to dresses).

As a self-proclaimed "outfit repeater", I routinely wear things multiple times a week whether it's repeating the exact same outfit more than once in seven days or styling a single item differently for various events. Yes, I'm careful to wear a repeat look in front of different people (if I wore an outfit to work, I might wear it again to dinner with friends, and so forth), but out of sheer laziness, I tend to lean on formulas I love rather than spin my wheels re-thinking entirely different looks. Instead, I love the challenge of making a single item feel new by way of fresh styling, which is exactly what I set out to do with this POPSUGAR Printed Midi Dress ($48, originally $64).

From the moment I set eyes on this dress, I knew it was my perfect day-to-night style: the classic shirtdress silhouette reads smart with a poppy floral print that brings a playful element to the look. Cut in a midi length with buttons and a self-tie belt that cinches in perfectly at the waist, it's ultra-flattering but also super comfortable as the fabric is really soft and lightweight. In other words, it's the perfect Summer dress that you can dress up or down, so I did (three times in one week and no, I'm not embarrassed about it).

Ahead, see how I wore this POPSUGAR Printed Midi Dress to work, out to dinner, and on a weekend day full of activities. Then, shop each of my looks which feature Summer's biggest accessory trends like barely-there strappy sandals, seashell jewelry, woven handbags, and more.

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

Barry Manilow Shuts Down Michael Kors's Studio 54-Themed Fall 2019 Runway

Michael Kors has established himself as the go-to designer for all things American glamour, whether that's easy West Coast chic or '80s power bitch, so it was not particularly surprising when he cited the Studio 54-era of New York City as inspiration behind his Fall 2019 collection, shown ...

I Wore Sofía Vergara's Viral and Divisive Sneaker Heels - and Actually Sort of Loved Them

Despite what some people may think, the return of sneaker heels - largely attributed to Sara Blakely , the inventor of world-renowned Spanx, and now Sneex - happened by accident. "Our founder did not set out to create a sneaker heel. She set out to create the world's most comfortable high heel and this is where the innovation led her," a brand rep says. Not only are they supportive, they add noticeable bounce to my steps, which actually makes walking in high heels sort of . . . fun? Nevertheless, merely one year in, the company can report that The Tepper in Silver ($595) sold out in just 24 hours after launch and accrued an 11,000-person waitlist. One-third of the brand's customers have already invested in a second pair. And celebrities from Jane Fonda and Sofía Vergara to Reese Witherspoon and Suki Waterhouse have already been spotted wearing them. "The Sneex customer is responding to sneaker heels because they want height and wearability," the S...
