Double Duty Summer Clothes: Wear It Two Ways

  • By

Everyone loves a "buy one get one free deal" in the market.  What’s about a fashion two for one?
 
Clinton picked out some of this season’s key pieces that can be worn in at least two great ways.  Check out these versatile articles.
 
Graphic, Printed Pant
These fun pants are very hot right now.   Don’t be intimidated by the louder -  style these pants are great for day and night.
 
If you’re wearing them during the day pair them with a solid blazer, which provides structure, balance and proportion to pants.  It’s also a serious, stylish counterpoint to the whimsy of pants.  Add a neutral shoe that doesn’t compete with pants and finish the look with an understated but "wow" accessory like a skinny belt with studs.
 
If you want to wear these out don’t be afraid to mix patterns by adding a fun top.  Then add a little sparkle accessory and a hot pink shoe and you’re ready to go.
 
Bright Color Sheath Dress
Michelle Obama might be responsible for bringing back this great look, but you don’t need her body to make it work.  In fact this dress looks great on most women and can be worn to many different types of events.
 
The fun comfortable dress is the perfect pick for a weekend brunch.  Just throw a white denim jacket on and add gold metallic sandals to finish the outfit.
 
During the week you can wear this dress to evening social and networking events.  Instead of the casual white jacket pair your dress with a black leather jacket, a bright contrasting shoe and gold accessories.  In this outfit you’re sure to make an impression.
 
Tailored Coral Shirt
Most of us only wear tailored shirts during the work week, but this top is just the thing to jazz up your weekend wardrobe.
 
It’s not your typical white shirt but you can still wear it to work.  The beautiful and feminine color goes well with a brown jacket, a non-black neutral, for a year-round look.  Add white denim jeans and a navy shoe to complete the ensemble.  This gives the outfit a polished feel.  It’s so fun your whole office will notice.
 
It’s finally the weekend and you don’t know what to wear.  This shirt is just the thing.  Pair it with a pencil skirt, a skinny belt, a cream cardigan and a wedge.
