Go-To Peice #2

I hereby present to you...
the black mini-skirt!
With the perfect amount of tightness, and the right amount of length so you aren't flashing your undies, this skirt can be used for day or night, fancy or not fancy- just by switching the tops, shoes, and accessories.

Three possible ways to switch up the look of this peice:

1- THE CASUAL LOOK
Add leggings or printed tights, boots, and tuck in a colorful tank, tee, or plaid shirt. You could add a fedora or some necklaces, or anything else that looks cute with your specific style.


2- THE FANCY LOOK
Tucking in a flowy, ruffled, or lacy white shirt really makes the skirt seem formal. Diamond and silver simple jewlery, heels, and a shimmery clutch makes it the perfect wear to a classy formal dinner.

3- THE PARTY LOOK
For a party with your friends, or anything you want to look great for, dress this piece up with wedges, any top, and blown out hair.



Anytime Outfit((:

This outfit is great, because you know there are three basics that a lot of people have, and if you don't they're super super easy to get.
1) A plaid shirt. My personal favorite is the red+black check. But they're all super cute and so versatile.
2) A brown belt. These come in handy so often, and are a lot of people's must-haves because just put it on some jeans, toss on a shirt, and leave. The braided leather belts are cute, along with just regular un-designed brown belts. Anything works.
3) Jeans. I really haven't met anyone who doesn't have these. But when putting with plaid shirts, you can use faded jeans or dark jeans and it'll look great either way.
The plaid shirt is amazing because you can pretty much wear it with any bottoms. It'll still look good tucked into navy jeans, making shorts stand out (which looks great because they balance each other perfectly with the length difference). It even looks cute with a black mini skirt. 

Summer Beach Party

I absolutely love this outfit idea. For the beach, for a Summer party, anything. It just works.
CONVERSE+SUNDRESS+SUNGLASSES
it works on everybody. Its so versatile because say you have a pair of yellow converse, you can wear a blue or red sundress with that. It would even look cute wearing a bikini top underneath, and you don't have to worry about matching colors. In fact, the less matching the better! I would stay away from black sundresses, considering it takes a happy peice and makes it kind of dull; any other color is great.
Add some tortoise shell sunglasses and some funky necklaces if you want, you've got yourself an outfit!
