FASHION CHALLENGE FINAL DAY: FANCY DRESSES FOR DAYTIME



DAY 3

Three days of fashion challenges, Three days of winners. 
Every day you will be required to complete a different challenge. 

$100sd prize given out for each day!

You must compete in all three days or you will not qualify to win.

Last day to enter: August 17, 2014 12:00pm


FRIDAY (DAY 3):  Wear a fancy (special occassion/formal) dress and re-work it for daytime.


I love this idea! It's a great way to not let all those gorgeous dresses go to waste. Why only get one wearing out of them?! It's also a great budget saver! The challenge to wearing a fancy dress for daytime is keeping the look tasteful.

Tips & Tricks

  • Consider a chic layering piece. A great way to tone down a party dress for day is to add a casual jacket or shirt. If a jacket is too predictable, try a cardigan or your comfiest flannel.
  • Find an alternative for your favorite heels. You need to make your look more daytime friendly so ditch the heels. Instead go for something more fun like sandals, sneakers, boots, flats or oxfords.
  • Just go for it. Don’t hold back, throw caution to the wind and go for it!
  • Examples:
  • Carrie from sex and the city miranda sex and the city movieelizabeth banksKristani A wearing a dress


  • xoxo, Brigitte and Jenna

what a great idea! i love this dress, and layering it with the chanel top and subcouture jacket keeps it casual enough to go out in

Carolaina said...

This challenge was very complicated because I have many interpretations about how looks a "fancy dress". E.g. My first choice works without any change for daytime so I was confused. At the end I got 2 options but finally I decided for this one.

taking an otherwise flashy night time dress and making it day time! username- emilynicoleee

This concept confuses me a bit :/ Like what does it even mean??? It can be interpreted so many ways!


But anyway! Here is my interpretation of what it means, I took it to be creating an outfit that I could wear everyday - and since it's WINTER here that means I need layers!


I used the Denim Fringe Dress from Bonjour Bizou, with a Nelly belt and shoes, a Deisel jacket, and Voile clutch.

hope this dress I used is fancy enough! I thought it was quite hard to make it look more casual since it's golden,that's why I chose it :p

I picked purple dress. It is perfect for cocktail party, but I wanted to make it appropriate for day. I styled it with biker vest, jacket and some pink and blue accessories. Smiliuxxx

Ash/Oayes said...

I turned this beautiful Coco dress into something wearable during the day :)

bella98twilight said...

I love this outfit, I hope this gown is not too much though ^^

beniiik said...

This is my take on this challenge - I hope the dress I chose will be deemed formal enough, because I think it's kind of subjective what one sees as formal or otherwise. It all depends on context.
I went for a simple business look, with mathing accessories. I hope you'll like it!

Prizla said...

Now this gorgeous PPQ Golden Gems Dress is daytime dress too ♥ Hope you like it ^-^

MissLadyAnjah said...

I decided to wear a sparkly skirt and transparent top as office attire.
To go from day to night just take off the socks and coat, pull hair back and enjoy happy hour!!!

Courtney (Krissik26) said...

Here's my outfit! I decided to make use of one of the many free ball gown dresses I had, and made it into a flowy skirt. :) Krissik26

Demoliton Grenade said...

I used one of the free cocktail dresses in my storage, put a free sweatshirt over it and made the dress a miniskirt, I added a pair of matching converse, a bag and a flower crown to make it more "every day"

Since I don't wear dress. I just work on this vest as a formal wear and make a day outfit. Sorry

Anonymous said...

I made a kind of grungy look and I wanted to challenge myself make a dress look casual without putting a jacket or a sweater over it. Sorry I'm so close to the deadline by the way, I hate being late :p

Ms.Brigitte said...

Very pretty :)

Juliette116 said...

This ysl shirt made LE super elegant dress looks very everyday, . Added elegant bag and sandals to make it a little bit oryginal.

Used A Nelly long 3/4 sleeve white dress. <3 I love the dress anyway! I did it up in a formal and casual way. I thought the casual look would be great for a school day or a walk in the park, with some flats it's even more adorable. This is so my challenge because I love formal dresses but never know how to make them look more casual, one of the only ways I know is adding a leather jacket, or a jean jacket. :) Flats or sneakers of TOMS instead of heels. <3

This had to be my favorite challenge!
I loved this outfit so much, that I saved it in my suite.
I never thought to do this before, so this was a fun experience.
My special occasion dress is the Royalty "Pink Spring Dress"

#Hessa // RadicallyVal said...

I made the dress into kind of a beach outfit, it was a formal outfit before. **PS, I know this is 2 days late, but I already completed the first two challenges and I don't want to miss out because I didn't complete the last one!!!

Stardoll Ghazooy said...

Hey there, um I don't want to be like mean or anything but when are the results coming out ahah? xxx

Ms.Brigitte said...

We had a delay and our judges are kinda inactive, please be patient. We're working on the results.

Emorox4eva/Jenna said...

Sorry Joe you could have taken a formal tux or just jacket or pants and made it wearable for daytime. I know that was hard for you. Sorry
