The dress originally retailed for $119, so not a bad investment, especially if I can get two seasons worth of wear out it. I\u2019ve mentioned before on the blog that I love patterns, textures and colors and I\u2019m not one to shy away from horizontal stripes. I find it flattering on all shapes and sizes, especially if the article of clothing is well made.<\/p>\n<p>To play off the stripes in the dress, I added these strappy, brown, stacked sandals for warmer weather. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4176\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807-731x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" data-size=\"3687x5162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0807-840x1176.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/> <\/a>I found them in like-new condition at the Reading Goodwill Keystone Area outlet for just $2.25, but their list price was $49.99! The bag has been featured on the blog before, but it was a perfect match with the dress, so I was happy to re-purpose it again. It is from CO-LAB, which is a popular vegan leather brand from Canada.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4173\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870-731x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"475\" data-size=\"2655x3717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/DSC_0870-840x1176.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>The necklace was a chunky, gold and stone, multi-layered style from Sugar Fix at Target.

They just get better with age. I\u2019d probably also add tights and a chunky cardigan as winter sets in. But for right now, I have some options on how to style this versatile dress.<\/p>\n<p>Think about how your fall purchases now can transition into winter.
