Building a summer wardrobe 2


Posted by Colleen Shirazi, Thursday, June 22, 2006 1:33 PM (Eastern)

Okay...another tip (and it will sound gratingly obvious once you know it). When you're buying your tanks, get some light-colored ones and some dark-colored ones.

Why? Once you start mixing and matching, sometimes it's the sheer lightness/darkness of the piece that makes it work. Yesterday I shlepped a white lace cami over a dark blue tank and it looked pretty eh to me by the end of the day. Tried the same cami over a dusty pink tank today (same model/brand as the blue one) and it looks great.

Summer is the time for earrings...because your hair will be up all the time, or, if you're Winona Ryder cute, you can get one of those super short hairstyles.

You can make jewelry too all summer.



This piece features faceted blue lace agate stones, some crystals my grandmother gave me easily twenty years ago (you can find similar crystals at your local bead shop of course) and gold-filled wire.
