Style Tip of the Day: How to Spice Up an Everyday Outfit

Today I have a simple way for you to add spice to a casual everyday outfit.  So all you have to do is grab a few basic pieces in the morning and top it off with something to make it a little more special.

A common go-to outfit, especially for the transitional seasons, is a t-shirt and a cardigan with jeans or just about any other bottoms.  For the office, you could use a skirt or trousers.  Right off the bat, the good thing is that there’s a third piece in this outfit combination to add interest to your tee and jeans (or pants or skirt).  (You can read more about “How to Use the Amazing Powers of a Cardigan” here).

But if you leave it at that, it’s still plain jeans and a tee with a cardigan.  Details always add it more style.  I have collected style tips over the years, and like to share them with you.  As an installment in my “Style Tips” category (here), I have an accessory tip for you today.

Age doesn’t matter, so why don’t you try it?  😉

STYLE TIP:  With a casual tee & cardigan, add ornate earrings.

By adding some big interesting earrings, you still keep the look simple but it results in a touch of class.  Sometimes it even ends up looking quite glam.

We’re not talking about any earrings here.  Add something big enough and interesting enough.  Statement earrings are always great.  You could use chandelier earrings, tassel earrings, tribal ethnic earrings, etc.  And they look even better when your hair is swept up or back.
