Weekend Wear - 3 Ways to Make Sure Your Weekend Wardrobe Is Working

Weekend Wear - 3 Ways to Make Sure Your Weekend Wardrobe Is Working

By Erin Braxton

As a young girl, I aspired to grow up and be this super sharp, well put-together professional female. Of course I had multiple career dreams where I would wear these high-powered, sleek business suits. They would look just as hot as the career women on The Young & the Restless. I would get them from Spiegel Catalog or Neiman Marcus. And I would look highly sophisticated and important. I never anticipated having a job where I home office the majority of the time and the weekends would be my chance to take my dressing up a notch. But that is exactly what happened. Weekends are my time to get out and about, the same as most people.

Anything is possible on the weekend, so why wouldn't you try to look the best you can just because you're not headed to the boardroom or the club! There is nothing worse than a really bad weekend wardrobe, so here are three ways to make sure your weekend wear is working.

1. Make the investment. Don't opt for old, torn-up jeans and freebie tees. Even though most of us are looking forward to our days off, and it's not a requirement that we wear stuffy business attire, why not be comfortable and current? Summertime gives you the opportunity to wear breezy summer dresses and cute little sandals. Winter is the time to wear form-flattering sweaters and jeans that hug in all the right places. It's worth the money to feel and look good.




2. Make the effort. Anything is possible over the weekend. You can see anyone and end up doing any number of things. When you're out shopping and lunching with your girls at some hot little spot, you're most likely to run into other people you know who want to be at that same hot lunch spot. So don't get caught out there slipping. Maybe your makeup is just lipgloss and mascara. Perhaps your hair isn't as coiffed as it is Monday thru Friday. But you still look fresh and put together.




3. Express your true self. Your weekends are your time. You don't have to dress for some company or client. You can dress for yourself. When we feel good we look good. Don't take that for granted. Have fun with your wardrobe and take opportunities to do things you wouldn't do in your work place.

In a woman's crazy world of work, fun, family and everything else, weekends are the highlight of the week. Make sure you greet them in style.

Casual Wear- Spring Legging Styles

Author: Jennifer

If you are like me, you likely can't wait for spring to get here. Although there are some great fashions available for winter wear, it can easily become boring with the lack of color and different fabric options. When spring is just around the corner I begin to think about my different spring fashion options and just like in the winter, my leggings are my first choice. Don't be fooled into thinking that leggings are just for winter, there is an entirely different way to wear leggings once the warmer months of the year role around and I am here to help you learn how.

Crop leggings are my first choice for the warmer weather. You will find that the thick wool and cotton leggings become scarce in the spring and summer and you are left with the yoga style leggings. These leggings are made of spandex for the most part and in many cases are one size fits all. This breathable material makes it the perfect pair of leggings for the warm days as well as the cool nights; very versatile. Leggings take casual wear to an entirely new level.

With crop leggings you can be cool and still wear your favourite tunics. For many people their tunics may be geared towards the winter and I am going to suggest tunic style tank tops to replace these. The tunic tanks on the market today come in incredibly bold colors and can easily be layered to create that casual clothing look we all love so much. If you are looking for a t-shirt style tunic these are available in just as many colors and patterns as the tanks. Tunics are everywhere today and the variety is not likely to diminish any time soon. With so much variety you can easily create a number of different outfits utilizing the same pair of leggings and several different tops.

What you may see in the fashion world today are leggings worn under skirts for women. The mini skirt has made its return to the fashion world and although it is a hot trend, it is one some women are a bit uncomfortable with. With this being said, you can easily take advantage of this trend by layering your favourite mini skirt with a pair of cropped leggings so you can have the best of both worlds without having to worry about being covered. This is a popular trend that looks incredibly hot, especially with denim miniskirts.

Casual clothing for women is not about sweat pants and oversized shirts that cover up your shape. Today the tunics on the market are form fitting and create a slimming look that can only be achieved through a small number of fashion pieces. Leggings can be cropped or full length but are still great accessories to your spring and summer wardrobe. Invest in a great pair of summer leggings and put your wool leggings way for the winter.
