simple summer skirt

Summer time is the best time for simple pieces.  The weather is right and it is appropriate to simply wear a tank and skirt with no other layer!  To add some dimension to my outfits on days that the weather is not welcoming of another layer I layer some jewles.  Jewelry is the easiest way to add layers without adding extra fabric. 

Start with a simple outfit - shirt and skirt, skirt and shorts, even a simple dress

Focus on one area - choose necklaces, bracelets, or earrings to keep the look effortless

Add layers, textures, even color until satisfied!

My favorite pieces to layer right now are gold necklaces because they pair well with everything, and can be worn in as many combinations as needed.

Loving Layering

For those days that are chilly, but not chilly enough for a jacket.  I resort to layering.  It has to be the easiest way to successfully keep warm while looking cute.  I'm not a huge fan of jackets, they tend to be uncomfortable and stiff, but a sweater laves room for movement. 

Opposed to the conventional button down, I decided on a chambray shirt to wear underneath.

Its more my style!

I am loving this plum color and the "v" neckline.  I am pretty busty so its often hard to find a flattering sweater, the bulk and high neckline of most of them leave me looking shapeless.  But, the deep "v" in this one makes me feel as curvy as usual. 

The light bottoms add some contrast and the leopard loafers add sass to the over all preppy feel.
