Froufrou, froufrou




Get smart!


You can find the same jacket in Zara for 49 euros and get a nice white blouse in Penneys for 14 euros (the one with the ruffles at the top!) and if you don't like the smart trousers that you wear at work, get some loose and light trousers like a sarouel to feel more comfy! You are probably thinking that you will never wear this because really you are never invited to cocktails or fancy meetings...well how about a birthday when you don't know what dress to pick or to impress the parents! (unless they still leave in the 70's and think that "hippie" is not a style but actually real people, in that case, the flower power below is for you!)

Mix & Match


I particulary like the "vintage" printed tee shirts that you can find in Urban Outfitters or H&M with Mr and Mrs Silly or Mickey and Minnie...You can wear them with something classy to balance it all! With a nice pair of heels or smart shoes and nice jewellery and jeans, it's simply perfect and cool!

Simplicity


The good accessories




A satin jacket or just a simple navy jacket softens the flashy floral dress, even better pick the jacket with a strong colour. Customize your dress with an old used brownish belt or a belt with metal dots to spice your outfit up!


If you do not want to be "overdressed", a bunch of wooden bracelets will do or a fringy bag for the audacious!
