Experienced Fashionistas

You can’t expect to shop your closet and come up with different outfits if you only keep trying the same combinations over and over. I remember when I learned about wearing a dress to make it look like a skirt (by layering a top over the dress) or make it look like a top (by layering another skirt over it). Sure, it doesn’t work for every skirt with every dress, but you won’t know until you try it. But my craziness in trying all kinds of tricks has enabled me to shop my closet and come up with so many different ways to wear the same item.

Tall women, because of their long legs, can get away with a longer top over wide-leg jeans so long as it is not more than 3/4 length (above the knee).

If you’re one that struggles to find an interesting outfit, this is a great way to come up with super fun outfits. With my outfit above, I’ve styled my very exquisite Escada, hand beaded jacket with some rugged jeans, graphic tee, and then added some white pumps.

Taking a very feminine dress is another fun way to mix things up with the idea of juxtaposition.

This beige zebra print top is also available in a cotton tee, but I rather like this satin fabric because it’s soft and shiny and a bit more glam.
