We all know that brilliant open to the movie “27 Dresses” where each bride tells Katherine Heigl that the best part of her bridesmaid dress is that you can totally wear it again!  If you’ve been in a wedding before, you know that little routine backwards and forwards.  Every year you have to dedicate a growing space in your closet to new dresses that you’ll promptly forget about until you need a Halloween costume that requires formal wear.  Well, for fun, me and some friends of mine who have invested quite a bit of coin in all things bridesmaids (Emily squashed that “27” number years ago), pulled out some of our favorite dresses and styled one in a way that we would actually wear it again.  After the giggles subsided from trying to fit into some of the older dresses in our closet, we actually came away with some pretty great outfits.  Try it for yourself and see what you can come up with.
