WHAT TO WEAR: Weekend Wear

For most college students, a majority of the summer is spent working and trying to save as much money as possible before going back to school. So, when the weekend came around, this lifeguard had the chance to get out of her swimsuit and let her inner Fashionista come out and create this super cute look!

I caught this Fashionsista on her way to dinner after spending the day downtown shopping with some friends. What caught me eye about this Fashionista’s outfit is her mix of basic and bold. Her off-the-shoulder black and white striped blouse works as the centerpiece of the outfit, and allows her to keep the rest of the outfit pretty simple. She paired her blouse with a pair of black khaki shorts and black sandals.

My favorite part of this Fashionista’s outfit has to be her choice in accessories. With any off-the-shoulder shirt, a necklace is always a nice finishing touch. However, with this shirt you must make sure that you’re not distracting or clashing with the patter of the blouse. Her choice of a simple black pendant necklace allows her to bring more depth to her outfit without taking away from the overall look. Then, she adds a pop of color to an otherwise monotone look by carrying a pink cross-body bag.

This look is the perfect weekend outfit because it’s stylish, simple and allows you to stay comfortable all day. Whether you’re shopping, running errands or going out to eat, this outfit will have you ready to take on the weekend in style.

One Simple Change: Is your day of shopping with the girls turning into a night out on the town? You can change this outfit to work with your girl’s night out by switching out your flats for wedges, or changing your shorts into black skinny jeans.
