Wherever your weekend takes you–whether a picnic in the park or out on the town with your girls–we’re going to make sure you do it up in style!
I thought it would be fun to dream up three looks using one piece as a base: an on trend bralet top like this $26 Denim Zip Bralet from Topshop. Black is a neutral that can take you from day to night.
Though I personally don’t think I can get away wearing this style (too boobalicious), I’m sure a lot of you can!

For a casual day in the park, pair your bralet with a cutesy printed skirt, like this $61 printed option by Fair Trade. Complete with the ever so popular Dolce Vita Archer sandals, and store your books, tunes, and bug spray in a fun tote. I love this one by Moschino.
For a date, skew extra cute by pairing the zip bralet top with a floral pencil skirt.

Slip on a denim jacket if you want to go for demure, but show off your legs with a pair of black wedges. Complete with a manicure in pop pink and a dash of lipstick.
Hitting the town? Why not try a pair of pants? Get it popping with a pair of cropped red trousers and look-at-me heels:

Finish with a smokey eye, red nails, and gold accents.
Will you be trying any of the above??
Have great weekends! And if you are inspired, be sure to send in your pic!
Smootches!

You definitely have a distinct Afrocentric style Claire. I will be in New York the weekend of Fashion Night Out. I would love to meet you.
