A Chic Convertible Dress From an Unexpected Store

I saw a recent post on convertible dresses and it reminded me of a dress I saw online. I'm not necessarily a big fan of Walmart, especially in the clothing department, but when I saw someone in this on one of the many fashion blogs I read (sorry, I can't give credit!), I was blown away. It's just a variation of a little black dress but with more variation.

So if your wallet is tight this holiday season, I think it's a great thing to pick up. The multiple styles will prevent people from knowing it's only one dress, and you can dress it up or down depending on your accessories. I'm planning on trying this baby on the next time I find myself in Walmart.

Here are some of my favorite styles on how you can wear it:

What do you folks think? Yay or nay? If you want to see the other ways you can wear this dress, click here.

It looks like one of those dresses that look cute on the model or someone else, but then when I put it on I look like I'm wearing a sack.

I LOVE CONVERTIBLE DRESSES! But those in VS don't actually look good when you have them on. They're too "model-y."

This one looks only great in certain styles, especially the last picture. The first 2 I'm not very fond of. But I'd buy it for that one style :D

It probably on looks good on those really skinny boyish type girls....
It's probably not flattering on pear shapes [like myself] at all....

hmm... it doesn't look that great. for the first one, it's shapeless in the chest area and the armpit areas are weird hahaa.. and the second, it would make my shoulders look hella bony. and yes i'm a super skinny kid. and the one in the above picture is just weird :x

Ehh, it seems to be a little unflattering for any body type.

Convertible dresses are becoming more prominent, it seems, if they're even being sold at Walmart.

I will ignore the fact that I do not like convertible dresses and say that I agree with @snapeful@xanga - the dress does not look all that great. It is shapeless. The hems look shoddy in the picture. If it only comes in black, I would not waste my money because I already own black dresses in all of the styles possible with this dress.

Also, in the second picture, the woman's left arm (as we're looking at the picture) looks like it's short and misshapen. haha.

it's cute, but a bit too drab for me.

and modifiable clothing is too complex for my little brain.
