For two years in a row now, my husband and I have attended a ball.  I get excited, I buy a dress, I wear it for 3 hours, and then it sits in the back of my closet never to be seen again.  Instead of collecting dust, I thought I would try to wear it like an everyday maxi dress.  Add some motto leather or a pretty peplum and it’s good to go!

Would you wear an evening gown during the day?
