Okay! Hi there, this the blog that’s going to summarize The Seventeen Ultimate Guide to Style: How to Find the Perfect Look. So in case, you’re a bit lost, I’m going to be covering different clothing styles highlighted in this book. It’s a general summary to help you find your style. So if you missed my first blog, lookie here.
Now, onwards, my fashionistas. Here’s the summary on how to look Girly.
When you dress girly, the point is that so you can balance out sweet and sophisticated. You’re not supposed to overdo the look with excessive pinks and frills. The key things to play with are florals, ruffles, lace, and flowy clothing articles.
The book sums up some girly wardrobe must-haves such as:
(From left to right, up to down) Floral dress, cropped cardigan, ruffled top, soft-tee, flowy skirt, peep-toe heels, ballet flats, and boot-cut jeans.
Here are some ways to incorporate those girly must-haves into a purdy outfit:
1. Pair your floral dress with:
- Tinted sunglasses (adds glam)
- A bright belt(highlights your waist)
- Platform shoes (keeps your dress looking fun and not too dainty)
- Oversized cocktail ring
2. Wear your ruffled top with:
- A cute ring or two
- Sleek dark jeans (make them ankle length so that your flats will stand out)
- Studded pointy-toe flats
3. Your boot-cut jeans would look nice with:
- Flower earrings
- An embellished tank top (something soft and flowy)
- A shiny clutch (wallet type thing)
- Open-toe heels (to add a sense of sophistication to your outfit)
4. What to wear with your soft-tee:
- Aviators or classic sunglasses (look coool, bro)
- Denim shorts
- A bright colorful tote
- Casual sandals (to elongate your legs to make you look tall)
5. Ballet flats would look good with:
- A gauzy scarf
- A knit beret
- Loose minidress (shows off your legs, but your cardigan will keep you from being overexposed)
- Cardigan
- A structured bag
