How would you wear.... a pink skirt

One of my lovely readers asked me how I would wear this pink skirt from Old Navy. So here we have five different ways in which I would remix this skirt! I hope you all like them!

1. Parisian Chic:
This is my favorite remix of this skirt out of the five I made! All you need to do is add a white tee and a classic beige trench coat. Then just add some cute patterned black tights like this adorable heart ones. Finish off with some black accessories and you're all done! So adorable!

2. Girls night out:
This skirt would also be perfect for going out at night with some friends. All you need is a patterned clutch and everything else will fall into place. Pair the skirt with a sexy black top and then use the colors of the clutch to add pops of color to your outfit (like these bright blue shoes and earrings). Easy right?

3. Very cute:
This pink skirt could also obviously go very girly and cute. Try pairing the skirt with a cute floral top! Then add some cute accessories like this beige hat and brown purse. Finish off with a pop of color like these beautiful mustard pumps.

4. Shopping Chic:
This skirt would also be perfect to go shopping with your mom or friends! Just add a white top (a simple white tee would work) and then add a cute patterned scarf! Finish off with a pair of comfy beige or brown flats and a big brown bag to fit all your shopping goodies.

5. Sexy chic:
This is my second favorite look of all! I'm really loving leopard prints right now, so I couldn't resist remixing this pink skirt into a sexy night out outfit! Try adding a white top and then add a motorcycle jacket (every girl should have one right!). Then just add a leopard clutch and voila! You're ready to go out!

So those are 5 ways in which I would wear this pink skirt. How would you wear it?

How would you wear... a gray lace cardigan

For this "How would you wear...", a reader has asked me to make some outfits with a gray lace cardigan similar to the one in this picture. So, of course, I was more than happy to provide my humble suggestions!

1. Comfy Chic: First off, I made an outfit that is cute yet comfortable enough to go out shopping with some friends or family. The lace pattern of the cardigan will take all the attention when paired with a simple white dress. You can also add a pair of cute patterned flats to add some interest to the outfit. Finish off with accessories and a big comfy bag in a bright fun color and you're set to go!

2. Black & White with a POP: One of the best things about a white dress is its verstility! Try wearing the gray lace cardigan with a white dress once more, but this time add chic details that will instantly transform into a perfect night-time look! All you need to do is add black accessories like the black belt and black flower pin and then add a POP of color with some fabulous pumps, like these bright blue ones.

3. Romantic Feminism: When I think of lace, I think of a romantic feminine look. Inspired by this idea, I made this sweet ultra-feminine look! Try pairing the gray cardigan with a subtle beige dress and caramel boots. Beige looks great with this orange-red color, so try adding sweet details like this floral clutch, hair pin, and earrings. Finish this feminine look off by making a soft curly hair-do!

4. Summer Cutie: This gray lace cardigan would also look super cute when paired with a soft color palette like light blue with light pink. Try wearing a sweet and comfortable dress, like this light blue one and then add simple white wedges to make the look more summer appropriate. Last but not least, add cute accessories in light pink, like this purse and heart earrings.

5. A little Nautical: One of my favorite ways to wear this gray lace cardigan would be in a nautical inspired look! Try pairing it with a simple navy t-shirt and a full white skirt. Then add some cute striped shoes to give the outfit that nautical feel. To give the outfit a little more pizazz, try adding some POP's of yellow, like with this yellow purse and yellow earrings.

So those are five ways in which I would wear this gray lace cardigan, how would you wear it?

How would you wear... a striped cardigan

Today I am happy to present my second "How would you wear..." post! A lovely sweet reader asked me to help her find outfits in which she could wear this navy and beige striped cardigan she recently purchased from Forever XXI. So, I have come up with 5 different looks that will hopefully give her some ideas!

1. Nautical inspired: The first look was inspired by the perfect-for-summer nautical trend. To get the look, I would pair the navy and beige striped cardigan with a easy breezy red dress and a pair of navy/blue wedges. After that, its easy! All you have to do is add nautical inspired accessories like a straw hat, a beige purse, or an anchor necklace.

2. A Chic night out: This cardigan could also look very edgy with just a few simple steps! In this case, I kept the color palette in the black, white, and gray hues with just a few pops of purple. This color combo always looks edgy and sexy, so its perfect for nighttime. A good idea is to try to get a clutch that incorporates the pop of color (in this case purple) so that it can pull it all together.

3. Casual chic: This striped cardigan can also go very casual when paired with a colorful coral tee and a fresh white skirt. Then you can add a colorful pair of flats, like these blue ones that go with the navy of the cardigan. To finish off the casual look perfectly, try a fun summer hair-do like Jessica Alba's side braid.

4. Feminine pattern mixing: Another option is to go very stylish by doing a little pattern mixing! This summer I have seen so many people pair floral prints with striped prints. I think the secret here is to get a small floral print so that the main focus will be the stripes. Then you can add sweet feminine details like the lilac flower in your hair and the feminine clutch.

5. Shopping cutie: This comfy striped cardigan could also be the perfect choice to go shopping with your mom or friends! I recommend pairing it with a bright color combo like yellow and orange (my recent favorite) to give it a fresh summer feel. Make sure to wear cute comfy flats so that you can walk around easily. Then you can add some fun pieces like this ADORABLE pineapple ring that I wish I had right now... jaja.

So those are 5 of the many ways in which I would wear this cute striped cardigan. How would you wear it?

How would you wear.... a black sleeveless cardi

This is my first "How would you wear..." post! How exciting! For today, a reader has asked me how I would wear a black sleeveless cardi somewhat similar to the one above. So let's see what I have come up with!

1. Parisian Chic: This was my first and immediate reaction when I thought of how to wear this cardi. I always love wearing Parisian inspired outfits, don't you? They are so effortlessly chic! In this outfit, I especially love the yummy beige accessories... they make the entire outfit more special.

2. Date night: This cardi would also look lovely to go out on a romantic date or just dinner with some friends! Here the main focus is to have an interesting and unique looking clutch and then adding accessories that match. In this case, I went for a white, black, and yellow color combo!

3. Shopping Chic: This cardi would be the perfect comfy accessory to go out shopping with your friends or family. I would naturally pair it with a floral dress (just because I love floral dresses) and then add pops of color in the shoes, belt, and purse. Make sure you pick cute flats and a somewhat big purse so that you are totally comfy and yet very chic while you go shopping.

4. Professional Chic: So you thought this cardi wouldn't be business appropriate? Well I beg to differ! I think it would look very classy over a striped collar shirt and a yummy beige skirt. Top it off with some classy looking gold studs and professional looking glasses and you're ready to get down to business!

5. Weekend Chic: Last but not least, this cardi would be perfect for a fresh and laid back outfit for the weekend. I would pair it with a bright colored dress, like this yellow one, just to add some freshness and color. Then I would pair it with a cute light-weight scarf that includes the same color as the dress as well as other colors (like this yellow and blue one). After that, the rest is easy! Just combine the shoes and purse to the colors of the scarf and you're set to go!

So those are the ways in which I would wear a black sleeveless cardi. Which is your favorite look? How would you wear this versatile item?
