Styled To Last | Skater Dress

One of my favorite items that Harlow owns is this simple Mustard skater dress from American Apparel. Not only because I love the color and the style, but the crazy versatility and length of use (so far 3 seasons of wear) are what make it one of my faves!

Here are a few of my tips, and ways I have styled this simple Skater Dress to last! kids styling tips, tips to extend the life of your kids clothes, american apparel kids skater dress I bought Harlow this dress when she was 8 months old, she’s now 20 months and still wearing it all the time! I expect we will get at least another full spring and summers worth of wear, and maybe (if lucky) a bit of next fall and winter. I might go and grab one of the other colors (since it comes in others and even more for toddlers), since it’s been such a bargain, and a great wardrobe add on.

A couple other great dresses that would be great to use these same styling tips with and to get that extended wear:

  • Mini Mioche Fresh Dress
  • Spaghetti Strap Dress
  • Mini Mioche Hooded Hanky Dress

Most little dresses can be worn way past their dress length, and worn as a tunic or top…some of them just work better then others.

    what a great item! i think one of the great things about having a girl is just that, most dresses can be turned into tunics/shirts as they grow. can’t really do that with boys clothes.

    Just found your blog from IG- here to stay! My daughter’s name is Harlow, too. :o] named after my mother’s maiden name. And? We scooped up that dress a few weeks ago! So great for layering and different looks!

    We love our skater dresses from American Apparel as well. We also love to layer them over tops (cute with Peter Pan collars and puffy sleeves, like you guys) as well as over our American Apparel spandex leggings (we have zebra print and a couple of pairs of shiny metallic ones!).
