Lunch Date Ready

Heading out for a lunch date and don’t know what to wear? Below I’ve assembled a look that would work for both a casual and professional agenda.

It’s summer time so I paired a colorful pattern blouse with a solid color skirt. Accessories include an amethyst statement necklace and Italian leather handbag. Slip your feet into pointed toe stilettos and you’re good to go!

Tip: When integrating a colorful patterned item into your outfit, draw from the colors it has to assemble the rest of your look!

Accessory Talk: Necklaces

When it comes to accessories, your personality should shine. Any outfit composed of solid color components function as a blank canvas to the artist it embodies—you!

When wearing a blank canvas, incorporate your style through accessories using your personal touch to complete the look. 

Pictured below is an example of four different necklaces paired with a solid pink top. Each choice of accessory transforms the outfit to convey a different look.

The Pendant Necklace adds elegance. It’s a noticeable accessory but not overpowering.

The Statement Necklace catches the eye. Bulky in character, it adds dimension to any plain outfit.

The Short Chain Necklace is dainty and subtle. Though soft spoken, it strongly conveys a delicate demeanor.

The Long Chain Necklace is a simple basic. It contributes a visual line for shape and communicates a put together look.

Wear It Wednesday: Maxi Skirt

Today is a maxi skirt kind of day. With potential to be both sophisticated and casual, I decided to find a happy medium in assembling the outfit below. I paired my black maxi skirt with a high waste yellow pinstripe dress shirt and a blue statement necklace that not only adds flair to the outfit but also gives the look some dimensions by adding a pop of color. Grab a black clutch, slip on a pair of gold sandals, accessorize with bangles and ta-da! You’re set to stroll through town looking composed and fashionable.
