Easy Recipes Look #2

Ingredients:
1 classic cardigan;
1 pair of pants;
1 dress shirt.

Instructions:

Accessorizing can instantly change your look. The base ingredients create a very business formal look—try wrapping a wide belt around your waist to add a feminine casualness. Play around with jewelry and eye shadows for that extra ‘kick’. Be sure to note how different you look before—and after you accessorize; sometimes it just takes that one accessory to completely change the statement you make.

Easy Recipes Look # 3

Ingredients:
1 fitted sweater
1 brooch
1 maxi dress

Instructions:

For a holiday party, night out with friends or a self-designated ‘fancy feels’ day, layer your  maxi dress with a fitted sweater. Keep your cardigan unbuttoned, pin your brooch to one side and bobby pin on side of your hair down to amp up the femininity. Maybe even throw in a flower on the pinned side of your hair for that cherry on top!
