GUEST STYLE BLOGGER | Von Vonni Travels w/ Charming City Style



Welcome, Baltimore-based Fashion Stylist and Blogger, Katie Weber of Charming City Style. Katie took her Von Vonni Transformer on a recent trip and shares how she wore her long, Vintage Teal Transformer while on vacation. Read all about it below:


I've said it before and I'll say it again: I LOVE a maxi dress. Something about it is so easy, yet stylish. They are by far the items I reach for the most in my closet. Imagine my thrill when Von Vonni reached out to me to style one of the dresses from their Transformer line. I honestly could not have been more excited. Knowing I was going on vacation soon after receiving the dress, I knew it was going to fill more than need on my packing list. Let's not forget, it's a Transformer dress.

I first grabbed the dress for our short Saturday morning in Charleston. I wore it walking through College of Charleston with my sister (who was a fantastic photographer) and then to wander through the farmer's market. I confess, I had to wear wedges. I think for us short girls having it shortened by about 2 inches would be perfect. Luckily, it has an unfinished hem, so it would be a pretty easy DIY project.

This dress can be worn, like, 100 different ways which is why I was so excited to try it out. I styled it the first time as a one shoulder, with an open back. It was comfortable even in the Charleston humidity because the fabric doesn't cling, and the skirt is so flowy.
A few days later, I wore the same dress after a day at the beach. It works just as well with your feet in the sand. I promise. At the beach, I wrapped this dress into a strapless style, which obviously made it a little shorter.

I will confess, that tying this dress, in either style you see, took a little effort, but it wasn't hard. I simply asked one of my sisters to ensure that the scarf style tie at the back showed more pattern than not. If you're seeing this and slightly intimidated, fear not, they have a video (which I watched upon receiving my dress) to make it much less scary.

I'm pretty sure this dress will be making an appearance at the rehearsal dinner of a fall wedding I'm attending. And it will probably see a few weekend nights out before summer officially ends.

GUEST STYLE BLOGGER | BarclayInc Shines in her Von Vonni Transformer


Join me in welcoming today's Guest Blogger, Stacey Barclay of BarcleyInc. Stacey comes to us from Virginia and shows how she styles her long Von Vonni Transformer in Tropic Magenta.  Virginia isn't just for lovers, it's for fashionistas too. Check out her post below:


Ok, so I first have to say thank you so much to Von Vonni for sending me one of their gorgeous Transformer Dresses. This dress is absolutely amazing, the goal was for me to style the dress and make it my own, and with the assistance of a good friend we came up with a really chic way to wear it. There are so many different ways to wear this piece, we tried several looks and then decided to actually spin the dress around so that the back was in the front, then we criss crossed the fabric in the front, and continued the criss crossing theme with the back of the dress by crossing the fabric once again and bringing it back around the front (stomach waist area), and finishing the look off with a low knot. The Von Vonni Transformer Dress comes in a variety of colors and is one size fits all, it can truly be tailored for any body type shape or size. It feels amazing on your skin and has a lot of movement to it, it basically moves with your body! The dresses can be purchased from several boutiques as well as directly from VonVonni.com. Another thing I love about the Von Vonni Transformer Dress is that it can be dressed up or dressed down. I've seen them be worn as bridesmaid dresses/ gowns as well as elegant evening dresses, you don't need a lot of accessories when wearing the beautiful Transformer Dress because it makes enough of a statement on its own. Here are some pics of how I styled my Von Vonni Transformer Dress.

GUEST STYLE BLOGGER | Fab Dutchness Takes us From Day to Night



Happy Monday everyone. Today we welcome Style Blogger, Dominique Dixon of Fab Dutchness. Dominique comes to us from Columbus, Georgia with a very active passport. See how our Short Transformer took her from day to night flawlessly:

Transformer: Day to Night


Orlando & London:

I travel very often and sometimes I don't always know what the plan will be once I arrive. So I often pack a casual day outfit, a more dressy day look and an outfit for a night out. This takes up tons of space and I often have to iron 4 outfits during a stay. But the perfect dress to wear during all occasions, because you can change the style of it, is the Transformer by Von Vonni. This dress is truly amazing. It can be worn in so many different ways, so you have a great look for any occasion and no one can tell you are wearing the same dress over and over. The Von Vonni website has a great how-to video so you can become inspired. The dress comes in a short and long version, several colors and prints. So there is a Transformer dress for every fashionista! This dress is fabulous and it is truly an asset for your wardrobe. Check it out at www.vonvonni.com!

I wore the dress in kimono sleeve style for a casual summer day in Florida. I added wedges and a fringe bag to keep the cute, casual yet fab. I also wore the dress in London in a more dressy way during a night out at the Savoy. I added sparkly earrings and a studded & jeweled clutch to complete this chic look.

Von Vonni is now having a Transformer dress giveaway! Win your own dress by following Von Vonni on Twitter and then copying the text below and reposting it! The winner will be chosen July 29th! Good luck!

I am so excited to finally share this dress with you!
I had the privilege to work with the awesome company Von Vonni , which their dresses have been featured in Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Shape, Harpers Bazaar, Huffington Post Style, New York Times, Seventeen, Us Weekly and so many more!
Let me just say that their TRANSFORMER dresses rock!
There are 10 different ways to style this dress. Options are endless when you are wanting a new dress to throw on to go out on the town with your girls or a romantic dinner with your man.
This dress also allows you to dress modestly or take a bigger risk by showing some skin.
It also is super easy to get the hang of with styling.
It's easy to wrap and it stays in place!
Let me start off by saying... I'm no model, but it was super fun to start off my personal fashion posts with this.
It really did inspire me to show you more of me personally!





 

I just really love this dress!

Mine is the long transformer and it was still easy enough to chase the kids in!

GUEST STYLE BLOGGER | Petite Hues Styles the Von Vonni Maxi Transformer


We welcome another wonderful Guest Style Blogger to Von Vonni. Welcome petite NYC-based blogger, Christine of Petite Hues. Christine shows one way a petite fashionista can rock our convertible dress. Check out how she styled her maxi Cobalt Von Vonni Transformer Dress in her post below:

Von Vonni Transformer Dress : Cobalt Blue & Silver Sequins




Hi Everyone! Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Ever since Von Vonni gifted me their Transformer Dress in Cobalt Blue last week, I couldn't stop having fun with it. A Transformer Dress, also known as an infinity dress, is basically a dress that you can wear in endless ways. I was so happy to take her home with me, I think it is the most innovative piece in my wardrobe. This dress is available in a whole spectrum of colors (see my video showing several colors here) which would make a great bridesmaid dress, prom dress, or any dress to wear to a semi-formal to formal occasion. The shorter version with sleeves would be work appropriate that can easily transform into a nice dress for happy hour. This dress is also travel friendly since the material isn't prone to wrinkles so you can just roll her up and pack her in your luggage and go. I will definitely be taking her with me to Las Vegas at the end of the year.

Shoes : Steve Madden sz 5 (here), Bag : Zara
Accessories : Earrings from J. Crew, Rings from Gorjana (similar here)


The Transformer Dress comes in one size that fits a US size 0-12, and a plus size that fits a US size 14-22. The Transformer Collection also includes the Long Transformer Dress with Sleeves, Short Transformer Dress, the Short Transformer Dress with Sleeves, the Transformer Top, the Transformable Romper, and the Transformer Tube if you're not comfortable with a NuBra.



One thing that I like about this dress is how easy it can be tailored to fit your body. I am able to move the waist higher or lower to sit at my natural waistline and adjust where I want the dress to end on my shoulders since I am very self conscious of my arms. The waist of the skirt did run big on me so I added an elastic band to the back of the waist. I also shortened the dress myself by 4 inches since there was no hemming needed. Although you can easily alter this dress to your desired length with a pair of scissors, I highly recommend either using a rotary cutter for more steadiness or bringing it to your tailor for a quick and easy job. I am actually thinking about shortening this dress to knee length to get more wear out of it and use the remaining fabric to make either a circle skirt or tube top for extra coverage.


I love how well the material of this dress drapes and how it flows with the wind as you're walking. Since the material drapes so nicely and hugs my curves at the right spot, it really helps elongate my body and almost with a slimming effect too. I've had so much fun styling this dress, I would definitely recommend this dress to those who are interested. You will have so much fun with it too. I can't wait to show you how I'll transform it next time.







What are your thoughts about the Transformer Dress?

Thank you so much for reading! :)

You can watch the video below to see how the Transformer Dress is styled in 10 different ways.
