If you are like me, you can't afford to buy something new everytime you have somewhere to go! So, in this entry I will show you how to select one garment from your closet and work it for different situations!!! I will show you how to dress for school, a date, concert, and interview....
I chose a pair of really cute houndstooth, highwaisted shorts from Forever 21, where I used to work! And since I used to work there, a lot of these items are from there.
SCHOOL

For the school look... I wanted to do something really casual. So I chose a graphic tee, sweater, sandals, and a belt to add a little pop of color. Throw on some studs, a watch, grap your backpack, and you are ready for the day's lesson!

For a date, you want to be fun, flirty, cute, but also show your personality. I love these flower print "top".. ok..its actually a dress haha.. but its cute! Its ok to mix prints, as long as you keep everything else fairly simple.

FASHION INDUSTRY INTERVIEW

Of course if you are interviewing for a fashion position you want to look stylish, conservative, but young! I just put on a blazer and rolled up the sleeves with a neon tee and a set of pearls. Pulling your hair up with a set of studs will really give you the professional look too. ALWAYS WEAR HEELS! or in this case booties with awesome tights!
Blazer- The limited

Tights- Dillards
CONCERT
I like going to rock/hip hop concets... But I also like to dress a little beatnik. I paired a Charlie Chapman like hat with layers of necklace, a black shirt, torn tights and loose calf boots! You could make it a little edgier with heavier dark shadow or eyeliner too!

I freaking love that last outfit. I find my self doing the mix and match all the time or cutting up something I no longer want to make it more desireable. Great post.
