Helping find perspective through motherhood

{dress it up or dress it down}

Today we are going to talk about how to dress up or dress down an outfit. 
I love pieces that you can either dress up or dress down! I feel like the sheer button up tops that are in right now work so great for this! You can throw them on with jeans, or you can tuck them into a skirt and have two completely different looks!
 
To Dress It Down: I wore this mint button down with jeans and some casual fun jewelry. I wore a chunky gold and cream antiqued necklace and a chunky bracelet to dress it down. The jewelry you wear can change the way an outfit looks by itself! I wore some wedges with it to give it a little glam/spunk.

To Dress It Up: I paired it with a ivory/gold pencil skirt that has mint details on the side. I wore a gold braided necklace and some delicate bracelets to give it more of a classy feel. I wore nude and black pumps to give it a more glamorous look.

Tips:
Dress it Down:
When dressing an outfit down wear more fun jewelry.
Wear wedges or flats.
Jeans!
Add a jean or leather jacket.
Mix prints.
—————————————————————————————————-
Dress it Up:
Wear more delicate or classy jewelry.
Wear a skirt or dress pants.
Wear heels (ex. stilettos, pumps, etc).
Add a blazer or cardigan.
Keep to one or two prints.

    I love both looks here! That top is so fun, what a pretty color. I love sheer collared blouses too, they’re definitely a staple! Loving those black wedges and all your fun jewelry!
