Summer Days

This weekend was great! I went to a barbeque with friends. We grilled hot dogs. I grilled veggie hot dogs. For dessert we grilled banana with chocolate while we listen to Summer songs. Yummy! Banana and chocolate taste amazing when the banana has been caramelized by the heat of the barbeque. You should all try it if you have the chance!!

Sunday I spent my time doing laundry, cleaning and food shopping. A typical Sunday.
I bought strawberries, oranges and bananas. I love making a fruit salad during the week.
Fruits and berries are my favourite food during Summer, and I could eat them all day!

 

For my outfit I wore a pink dress. The dress I wore has a thin fabric so it was perfect for the hot Summer day. I wore a shorts under to cover up. I also wore my white knit jacket, just in case it would get cold.

 

What I am wearing: A pink dress shirt from H&M. I am wearing a shorts under. The dress is longer in the back so it's not as short as it looks in the pictures. I am wearing a heart necklace and white knit jacket both from F21. My shoes are from Aldo, and my bag from Claire's.

 

 

 

How was your weekend?

 

 

I hope you have an great week!

One Dress - Tom Boy Look

 

Today is the last day of the One Dress posts. I decided to wear my fake leather jacket, my converse shoes and a silver necklace. The leather jacket gives the dress a more cool vibe. The shoes makes the outfit more tom boyish, and the necklace add some detail to the basic dress.

 

I hope these One Dress blog post gave you some inspiration on how you can change your outfit with accessories.

It's not always about how many clothes you own, but how you can style what you have differently.

I think having a few basic items in your wardrobe (like plain t-shirts, dresses, skirts) will allow you to use what you have instead of buy something new.

 

 What I am wearing: Dress from Banana Republic. Jacket from Free People. Necklace from F21, and Converse shoes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How you style your basic items ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wish you a good weekend!

One Dress - Everyday Casual

I am wearing the same dress as yesterday. This time I decided to change my jacket into a khaki  jacket from H&M. The jacket is loose so it gives a relaxed look.

I added a blue necklace to give the outfit some color.

I think this look works for an everyday situation.

 

Also when I first bought this jacket it had fake jewels on the pockets. I cut them off because it was too much glitter for my taste. There are always ways you can be creative and change an item.

If you don't like something think of a way to fix it. If you buy a white dress but get tired of the color, try to dye it a different color, or cut it into a t-shirt. Be creative.





What I am wearing: Dress Banana Republic, Shoes Aldo, Necklace a gift, Jacket H&M 

 

 

What style are you?

 

 

 

Hope you have a good Thursday!

One Dress - Cute Look

I decided to use one dress for the next three blog posts, but style it differently.
I wanted to do this to show that you don't need all the clothes in the world to dress nicely.
You can mix and match with different accessories to create different looks.
This dress is basic so it is easily transformed with different jackets, shoes and necklaces.
Sometimes having basic items in your wardrobe is important, because it allows you to create more looks.

For the first look I decided to put a sheer black blouse over the dress for a classy look. I added a silver bracelet and tiny ear rings to keep the look clean. I also added my "fancy" purse to add to the classy and simple look.

What I am wearing : Dress from Banana Republic. Banana Republic is a good place to get staple pieces for your closet. This dress was originally $190, then it was on sale for $90, then it was half price of sales so I got it for $45 (a good deal in my eyes). My blouse is from Only. My shoes are from Aldo again on sale for $15.


- What is your best bargain piece?






I hope you have a great day!
