Options…We all need options. How many times do you walk into your closet FILLED with pretty clothes and think, ‘I have nothing to wear!’? For me, it’s pretty much every single day.
I have been trying really hard lately to think when I buy things. Think about how I can dress it up and dress it down, about different ways that I can wear the item. If I can’t wear it in at least 3 or 4 different ways I try not to buy it. Yeah….try. Try is the key word. It’s so hard!
Basic solid colored items are really easy to match with everything, the hard part comes when that item has a pattern or is just generally not so basic. So, I thought that I would show you all some easy ways to change up that not so basic item your closet.
Dressing It Down:
Dressing It Up:
I love this skirt. LOVE. This is one of those things I would sit and look at, then think, ‘There’s no way you can get more than one outfit out of this skirt.’ But, I would be wrong. There are SO many things you can do to this skirt, and I only showed you two of those! Get some cute sandals and a crochet top to make it casual for lunch, but add some heels and some nice fashion jewelery and you’re all set to go for date night. I would say it’s a buy:) Not to mention it’s only $35!
Stay tuned for more options to come!

I love those earrings on dressing it down! I’m a sucker for big statement earrings and the transition from mint to teal is great!
