The holiday season can get very expensive... buying gifts, entertaining guests, travelling to see family... sometimes your budget may not stretch to a new holiday wardrobe. That's why the Frenzied Fashionista and I decided to create the "Shop Your Closet" series. We wanted to demonstrate how you can take a staple that you already own, and wear it multiple ways for different holiday events. I'll be styling a white blouse in this post - and stay tuned for Ashley's upcoming post on pencil skirts!
How To Wear Your Little Black Dress To Any Event
The Event: Coffee Date / Family Party
The Look: Dressed down yet polished
How-to: Add contrast to your tailored blouse by pairing it with distressed denim. Grab a cute clutch and pretty flats and you're good to go!
The Event: Lunch / Casual Party
The Look: Plaid and Pearls
How-to: Wear a pearl necklace (costume of course!) to complement the creamy tones of your blouse. Add a plaid skirt and opaque tights to stay warm and cozy.
The Event: Dinner Party / Work Event
The Look: Statement Necklace and Bright Heels
How-to: Tuck your blouse into a high waisted pencil skirt for an elegant evening look. Add major drama by wearing brightly colored heels and a dramatic statement necklace.
