I Get Away With Wearing the Same Dress Over and Over Again—10 Looks I Copy

I had a friend over the other day for quick weekend catch-up. Before we headed out to explore the city, I opened my closet to grab a light jacket, and she immediately gasped. I may or may not have an obsession with buying new dresses, so my closet was spilling out with probably well over 50 styles. My love for dresses is so strong because they make it so easy to get dressed.
Although my dress collection seems endless, you'd be surprised by how often I wear my favorite styles. I have an obsessive personality, and when I like something, I love it. It's all in the accessories and styling. Throwing a light sweater over your shoulders or swapping in bold accessories can make all the difference. Below, you'll find 10 looks that will inspire the endless styling opportunities you have in your own dress collection.
