How to Maximize Your Closet: 1 Skirt, 7 Ways

Today's post is about maximizing your closet.  Regardless of budget, I think most people want to get as much versatility as they can from their clothing.  This year, I won't be adding much to my current wardrobe (see why here), so I wanted to play dress up practice making my clothing more versatile.  Here's a simple accordion-pleated navy and cream polka dot skirt (thrifted in Japan for 300 yen~$4) worn 7 different ways.  I probably could have made 20 looks with this simple skirt, but my photographer (Moneyman AKA my hubby) got tired after 7.  :)
