Playing with backless dresses
9:00 AM
Same girl, different looks. I love playing with fashion, specially with dresses. There's something special when you find that dress, the one which fits you, makes you feel confident, feminine, and everybody stops to look at you on the street. But to find it, there's no other way to try. Try, and try until you get exhausted (or not), until you find that style and shape that makes you feel not only beautiful but also comfortable as you walk out the door.
So, on the morning I spent at OhVintageShop I had the chance to try super different styles, some of them a bit unusual to the ones I usually wear, some of them more accurate to my daily basis. On this post I wanted to show you how to style backless dresses for this summer: similar shape, absolutely different styles and looks.
The first to shot was this summery, super sexy and beachy Versace with starfish and that mermaid inspired pattern. Awesome for endless cocktails and parties which last until dawn, I paired it with a statement necklace full of beads with remind of pearls. Just to follow a little bit with all the mermaid theme thing. Wear your hair on a quick and messy updo, pick a cool straw tote (get yours here) and you're done for party and dance all night long!
The second dress was more formal, classy and ladylike! Vintage from Vivienne Westwood this polka dotted, straight dress got into my heart immediately. Playing with the monochromatic, black and white concept, we matched this ''woman in black'' look with sparkly diadem (sparks are always nice. Specially if they're on fancy diadems and hairpieces. Who doesn't like hairpieces? They're super fun to wear) and black and white stilettos as well. Two different outfits for different moments but the same woman.
Because backless dresses are just amazing.

Going backless is quite daring. If anything, you've shown just how elegant backless designs can be. I like the first outfit more than the second outfit. Both of them are lovely. The necklace and sandals to the first outfit are as lovely as the dress. Two lovely outfits, one great post. Well done.
