How to Make Basic Tees & Dresses Look Remarkable

On the weekends, our family often goes boating to the beach to have a barbecue.  Other times, we might meet at a restaurant in town (outdoors during COVID19.)  I imagine many of you, like my family and friends, socialize at outdoor barbecues on summer weekends.  During the year of 2020, there were many casual days at  home.  And the comfortable mode of dressing that went with it was such a pleasure that it persisted. Some of the easiest pieces to wear are basic tees and dresses.  So I have a style tip to show you how to make them look remarkable.

Age doesn’t matter. And what’s even better is that this style tip is useful throughout the year any time you want to dress up your basic outfit!

Here’s My Style Tip of the Day:

Add boho jewelry to your basic tees and dresses. Here’s how:  adorn yourself with layers of necklaces, metal & wood mixed bracelets, stacked rings and large earrings.

You can add one bohemian piece of jewelry as in the photos above, or you can layer them.  In fact, the more the better!
