Doesn’t it seem like you have a section of your closet that is devoted to cocktail dresses you hope you will wear, but never seem to pull out past the first showing? They are the pieces that hang so sadly in that back of your closet and always hope for you to look at them, but you can’t even see them through the plastic wrapping that drapes over them. Let’s be real, you haven’t even thought about them since you brought them back from the dry cleaners after their one-time wear.

Stop the madness! It is time to reuse those cocktail dresses that are dying to be worn again. They want to come out and play and I am here to show you how. No more guilt over having to buy yet ANOTHER cocktail dress. Your regular daytime to evening activities are never going to have looked so good.

So, whip out those forgotten cocktail dresses and get ready to style, style and style some more! It is all about owning the right pieces to mix it up. As my Sass N Style episode shows, choosing the right pieces to pair your dress with makes all the difference. Between the right bobbles, fantastic purse, the perfect jacket and a fabulous pair of heels, you are going to take that cocktail right out of the dress. That certainly does not mean I will take the cocktail out of your hand!

Follow along with my easy and chic tips for making every dress shine for a second or even third time.
