It can be very difficult when you are first starting out
your career to balance fashion and finances. You do not need to spend a lot or buy a bunch of pieces to
update your look each season.
Instead, choose one or two trends that you really love and invest in one
great piece. From there, use your
creativity to properly accessorize that piece to change it up and really make
it practical for your own lifestyle.
I have selected this yellow peplum dress as my starter piece for the
season. Both the bright color and
the peplum detailing are right on trend for the season (and yes, I promise that
peplum done right is slimming because it defines a waist and creates an
hourglass effect on your body). It
can be worn in the office or even on a date. Below are three different ways that I hope will inspire you
for the season.
The Dress:
Look 1: Polished
Professional
A primary color palette is one of my favorite looks. It is playful, yet sharp and
professional. Layer a loose,
cobalt sweater over the dress (it will keep you warm in an air-conditioned
office during the day but it won’t be too hot during the summer months). Add a bright red day bag, and finish
off the look with snakeskin flats.
The snakeskin acts as a neutral and won’t clash with the rest of the
bright colors in your outfit. Keep
jewelry simple so as not to distract from the outfit.
Look 2: Night on the
Town
This look is not for the faint of heart. Turn a seemingly sweet dress into
something edgy with a fierce pair of architectural shoes, a snakeskin envelope
clutch, a black blazer, and dangly earrings to create a killer going out look.
Look 3: Tea Time
Attire
A beautiful dress in a bright color like this yellow works
perfectly for a garden party, brunch, or even a summer wedding. Just add some ladylike accessories,
such as floral printed t-strap heels, a beautiful cuff, and a sweet clutch in a
contrasting color to complete the look.
