When I saw this dress on Koshka, I knew that it would be an instant hit. I'd attribute its gorgeous printed texture to mirror that of a Mexican blanket turned figure-skater dress. It just hugs me in all the right places without being too constricting. The back dips low just right and the length is short enough to throw on my trusty Trinas and be on my way. I've already worn this dress a few times over the weekend since I've received it and I've gotten a few musings about what else I'd wear with such a statement dress.

So I'm starting a series (appropriately titled 'uno, dos, tres') in which I'll style one piece, this Ladakh Lost in Translation Dress, three different ways.  I'm hoping to give you, my lovely readers, a few ideas on conquering that one unique, statement piece with a fresh eye because let's face it, repeating outfits is a necessary evil that we can work around.
