Lael's tip of the day: layering

One of my favorite things is layering. It can make a simple outfit more unique and fun. A simple layering trick is to pick one piece in your closet such as a t-shirt and build an outfit around it. First look at the piece. Don't just look at the main color, look at the small bits of color too. Next, put something over it; something light such as a vest or button down. After that add something else on top of that; this is usually something medium-light such as a sweathshirt. Last but not least... Accessories. Add a belt over your layers for a nice tied-together effect. Add scarves and/or jewelry and you are set. This is just one layering idea, feel free to use it, but be creative. Just make sure it isnt TOO bulky because you don't want to lose your style (or your body) in your clothes.
