Okay, so I’ve been seeing these silk slip dresses everywhere lately, and I finally decided to give the trend a try. I wasn’t sure if it would look good on me, or if it was even something I could pull off, but I figured, why not? Let’s do this!
First, I searched a good dress that I want. Man, there are a ton of options out there! Long ones, short ones, different colors, different patterns… It was a little overwhelming, to be honest. I finally settled on a simple, midi-length one in a dark green color. I thought it would be pretty versatile.
Next,I placed the order. After ordering it online, I was a little nervous about the fit. Ordering clothes online can be such a gamble! Sometimes they’re too big, sometimes too small, and sometimes they just look… weird.
- Waiting for the package…Fingers crossed!
- OMG it’s here!
- Try-on time!
When it finally arrived, I ripped open the package and tried it on immediately. And you know what? I actually really liked it! The material was super soft and slinky, and it felt really comfortable against my skin.
Styling This Thing
The next challenge was figuring out how to style it. A silk slip dress can be dressed up or down, which is great, but it also means there are so many possibilities.
First, I tried it with a simple pair of white sneakers and a denim jacket. It was a casual, laid-back look, perfect for running errands or grabbing coffee with a friend. It really simple and I think It’s really good!
Then I tried to make it a little more dressed up, I swapped the sneakers for some strappy heels and added a statement necklace. Whoa! Instant glam! It’s my first time to have this style,and I think I can go to a date wearing this!
And for a cozier vibe, I layered a chunky knit cardigan over the top and added some ankle boots. Perfect for a cooler day or evening.
I’m honestly surprised by how much I like this dress. It’s so much more versatile than I expected, and it’s become a new staple in my wardrobe. I’ve even worn it to a couple of events, and I always get compliments on it!
So, if you’re on the fence about trying a silk slip dress, I say go for it! You might just surprise yourself.
