On the eight day of Christmas, my true love (thrifting) gave to me… striped dress with pockets!  Or, ketchup and mustard!  Or, old dress styled ne-ew!  Any 5-syllable description will do.

Today’s agenda included a trip to the swimming pool followed by a casual Christmas party so I needed something easy to get into wet but still cute and comfy!  Enter the jersey dress with pockets!  I vowed to style my “old” dresses in new ways and despite my fondness for the classic ketchup/mustard colour combo, I’ve never worn this dress with a mustard cardi… till now!

8th Dress of Christmas

See those mustard boots in the background?  I almost wore those today then decided it was too MMS (Matchy Matchy Syndrome).  Mustard boots or brown boots, this was a new Dressember take on a dress I’ve worn many times so I consider it an 8th Dress of Christmas success!

Dress $9.50, cardi $2, Arnold Churgin leather boots $6.40, leggings from my closet, necklace $2, bracelet from my collection and earrings by She Does Create.
