Just like SJP

I'm a Sex and the City loyalist. I can still sit down and watch any of the episodes, no matter how many times I've seen them. I LOVED the first movie (shocking to make a TV show into a movie well), but the second left a lot to be desired. The best part about it was the fashion.

Remember these two Halston Heritage dresses that SJP wore? I loved them then and three years later they're still pretty amazing.

So, when I saw this knife-pleat maxi dress from Victoria's Secret...my mind went immediately back to the beaches of Morocco and the ever-stylish Carrie Bradshaw. If she can wear a pleated maxi, so can we, right? 

But wait, there's more. It's currently on sale for $98 and comes in six colors! And, fear not petite friends, two lengths! I'm torn between these two.

For the shorter version, while you can't buy it, you can rent a black version from Rent the Runway for $50, which I did for a friend's rehearsal dinner two years ago. 

Should I order the maxi? Any color favorites? 

What I Wore to Work Wednesday - Accordion Pleats

Earlier this year I was at Zara and found this accordion slip dress for $10. When I saw it, I wasn't really sure what I was going to wear it with, but for that price, I could figure it out. Don't worry, I didn't wear it like this. Worn alone, it looks like a nightgown. But, with a little layering, this $10 find turns into a 10, proving what you can do with a simple sheath dress. 

I added a Land's End Canvas tweed blazer, H & M leopard scarf, and Urban Outfitters belt. At first I tried the belt on the outside of the jacket.

But then I decided I liked it better with the jacket open and the belt on the inside. This outfit goes to show you can wear your nightgown to work. Or not! But you can take what looks like one and turn it into a real winner of an outfit!
