Okay, so today I decided to mess around with something a little different – a 2005 Dior piece. I’ve had this thing sitting in my closet for, like, forever, and I figured, “Why not try to give it a new life?”
First things first, I pulled the item out and laid it out on my bed. I just stared at it for a good five minutes, trying to figure out what I actually wanted to do with it. It’s this, like, classic Dior silhouette, but it felt super dated. The color, I guess, it is not easy to match.
Then, I started rummaging through my wardrobe. I pulled out a bunch of different things: some modern, some vintage, some totally random. I tried pairing the Dior piece with different jeans, skirts, tops… you name it, I probably tried it.
My Styling Attempts
- Attempt 1: I paired it with some high-waisted, wide-leg jeans and a simple white t-shirt. This was… okay. It definitely toned down the “old” feeling, but it still felt a little too formal.
- Attempt 2: Then I tried it with a mini skirt and some chunky boots. That was a total disaster. It looked like I was trying way too hard.
- Attempt 3: I almost gave up, but then I grabbed this oversized graphic tee and some sneakers. I layered the Dior piece underneath the t-shirt, so just a little bit of it was peeking out.
And that actually, kinda, sorta…worked! It felt unexpected and a little bit edgy, but still wearable. I added some simple jewelry – just a couple of silver rings – and I think I actually pulled it off!
It’s funny how just playing around with clothes can totally change the vibe of something. I went from feeling like this Dior piece was totally unwearable to actually wanting to take it out for a spin. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely a start. I’m already thinking about other ways I can style it… maybe with a leather jacket? We’ll see!
