The Laid Back Outfit

It may be a casual get together, but that doesn’t mean a sloppy outfit. However being cute doesn't have to be a daunting task, with our tips and tricks you’ll have a cute ad comfortable outfit put together in no time. 

  • Think comfort; most casual get togethers involve a lot of lounging around, playing games or watching a movie and in most cases eating. Instead of reaching for your lived in sweats, change your denim for something that is comfortable and flexible, like jeggings or leggings. These pieces give you all the style of regular denim jeans without the restriction. Feel free to fill your plate without having to unbutton your pants in this cute and comfortable outfit. 

Tip #1: You want to wear flexible denim or even opt for a moto jegging or leggings.

  • Ditch the t-shirt and go with something more festive like an oversize, cozy sweater in either a color or bold pattern. A sweater is extremely forgiving and always give your outfit a cute and casual style. Plus if you have a turtleneck or cowl neck sweater you can throw your hair into a top knot to complete the look. You’ll look adorable while also being comfortable and cozy. 

Tip #2: Oversize sweaters are your go-to for looking festive and cute while staying comfortable and casual.

  • When it comes to accessorizing little to none are needed. Keep the jewelry simple like a pair of stud earrings and a bar necklace. You can't go wrong with a cute pair of sneakers to complete this laid back holiday outfit.

Tip #1: Exchange your denim jeans for something a little fancier.

  • A chenille or velvet sweater is sure to up the ante of any outfit. Thanks to its sheen style it instantly transforms any outfit. To create a fancier style change up the material of your blouse, reach for a chiffon style or a popcorn texture to add that eye-catching quality. If layering is your thing than reach for a button down top and pair it with a cardigan or sweater for that sophisticated and fancier style.

Tip #2: Add a unique textured blouse or top to create the ensemble.

  • If your outfit feels too casual add statement necklaces and jewelry. You can never go wrong with a little bling to really tie an outfit together. When choosing shoes reach for your favorite pair of heeled booties to capture the ‘in between casual and dressy outfit.

Tip #3: Accessorize with statement jewelry if your outfit is still feeling too casual.

The Fancy Outfit

A fancy outfit can be hard to put together, especially when you have no idea where to start. You have to think about the event or party, are you going to be sitting a lot or standing around? Just because the event call for a fancier style doesn't mean you have to be uncomfortable the entire evening.

  • To easily encapsulate a fancier style reach for a dress or a skirt, they are the easiest thing to show a fancier outfit. A skirt or dress instantly gives you a dressier style, if you choose correctly. Ditch your stretchy t-shirt dress, unless you are ready to do some serious accessorizing. Choosing a dress can be an easier option because all that’s left to do is accessorize.

Tip #1: Go with a dress or skirt option.

  • Keep in mind the material of your clothing, things like chiffon, velvet and chenille have a fancier style to them then the oversize cable knit or a cotton blend. Just by wearing a different material you can give your outfit that polished and dressed up style that you were going for. 

Tip #2: Reach for material that will give your outfit a polished style. 

  • When it comes to accessorizing for a fancier event you have to go all out, not in wearing all the jewelry that you have, but picking the jewelry that catches your eye and has a little sparkle to it. The last thing you need to do is add a pair of your favorite pumps or dressier heels to complete this fancy outfit. Remember, nothing says fancy quite like pearls and diamonds. 

Tip #3: Choose jewelry and accessories that stand out to you and add a little sparkle.
