Wrap Yourself In Style

Wrap dresses have always been in vogue. Thanks to renowned designer Diane Von Furstenburg who(she sold 5 million wrap dresses in 1976 and still going) sparked a fashion phenomenon and ultimately made this a timeless apparel. I love her bold prints, fusion of colors, and the silk fabrics that are nothing short of flattering.

I also love that I stumbled upon two wrap dresses in Forever 21 while strolling in the mall the other day. I immediately grabbed my size in two colors and headed to the cashier. While DVF's esteemed line of wrap dresses run anywhere from $400 and up, Forever 21's run under $50 and boast the same fluid effect. They are made of 92% polyester and 8% spandex and for the price you really can't go wrong.

Inspired by Style Diary, I took this photo wearing the brown one. I wore it to work last Monday. :) It did pick up compliments from my mom (who thought it was a DVF dress) and Lisa, my co-worker.

Of course, nothing beats owning a DVF wrap dress creation. I plan to scout for good buys online in the future. In the interim, I can happily settle with my "too good to pass up" deals. After all, fashion appeal is not measured by the price but by satiating one's personal satisfaction. This one definitely did!
