Every time I saw a lovely dress displayed in a boutique or shop, I always think twice in buying it. I think it's not practical to buy a dress that I can only wear on once-in-a-blue-moon occasions. Oftentimes, I ended up with denims because they are wearable any time.
However, I was happy to discover the styling guide that I have found on the internet. It featured the 7 versatile trends for the Summer season. Be sure to check the rest of this entry!
