Three Different Styles: A Round-Up



These are a few outfits I wore over the past couple of weeks. They all have a different feel to them which shows how diverse my style can be. The first outfit is sort of grungy while the second one is more preppy with this jacket that reminds me so much of vintage Chanel, and the third is more of a boho casual look with this awesome body chain (body chains are a unique way to spice up any outfit!). I've been loving flannels because they are the perfect 'weekend wear' as I like to say because they are comfortable and easy to wear. I also got this watch and bracelet for Christmas which has initiated my watch obsession (this obsession can get really expensive really fast haha). On the other hand, I'm obssessed with this jacket. When I tried it on, I instantly got the 'wow' factor. Items like these are hard to come by so I knew I couldn't leave without it!

Outfit #1: Flannel: H&M (great store for flannels!) Watch: Anne Klein Bracelet: Express
Outfit #2: Jacket: H&M Necklace: Wet Seal
Outfit #3: Cardigan: Abercrombie & Fitch Body chain: Forever 21 (I can't remember it was an Xmas gift) Rings: Forever 21

3 Easy & Inexpensive Ways for a Dramatic Transformation






Nowadays, there just isn't enough time to plan a whole outfit. Most of us throw on the nearest pair of sweatpants and t-shirt and head out but there a several ways to quickly get dressed and still look stylish.

Jackets
A nice jacket is perfect to quickly throw on and look fashionable. You could just be wearing a simple tee and it will instantly dress up any look. My favorite style is motorcycle jackets. It's a timeless style and is perfect for any occasion. Some jackets are super expensive but you can easily find some nice ones for under $30. This black one has great detail and looks way more expensive than the $25 that I paid for it.

Scarves
Scarves are a great way to add color, texture, and pattern to any outfit. They're also really cozy which is perfect for days you just want to be comfortable and warm. Scarves are also very cheap!

Jewelry
Jewelry is my favorite way to spice up any outfit. Whether it's a dramatic statement necklace or a simple layered one, it adds a nice touch and brings your outfit to the next level. Forever 21 is my go-to destination for all things jewelry because they have a great selection for a great price-most jewelry pieces are under $15; a great price for a big transformation.

Looking fashionable doesn't cost as much money and require as much effort as people think and these are a few examples of how that is true. Accessories are the best way to look fashionable because they are very inexpensive but add major effect to the outfit. You're entire wardrobe can be v-necks and leggings but it won't look that simple once you add a chunky scarf or necklace!
