Have you ever wished your outfit could be a little less, dull? I know I have! So many times I will put on the perfect outfit, only to find that it is still missing something. Sometimes, jeans and a t-shirt just don't cut it. Here are 10 ways to make your outfit stand out from the rest :)
10. Add Some Colorful Jewelry
This is the most common option, and the most budget-friendly. There are millions of pieces of jewelry, all of them adding a unique touch to your outfit. Here are a few that will stay within a budget and are wearable with both fancy and casual outfits.
Forever 21 necklace: $6.80
Forever 21 Bracelet, $4.80
Forever 21 Bracelet, $12.80
Forever 21 Bracelet, $5.80
Forever 21 Earrings, $2.80
Forever 21 Earrings, $2.80
Forever 21 Ring, $1.50
There are so many types of jewelry, and most of it is budget-friendly. Some of my favorite places to but jewelry are:
Forever 21: Often, I can buy tons of jewelry there for under $10, and even under $5. They also tend to have super chic jewelry :)
Kohls: They always have some kind of jewelry on sale, and they have more fancy jewelry than Forever 21.
Claires: Though not always the cheapest, occasionally you can snatch up a minimally priced pair of earrings or a necklace.9. Add a scarf
I think each girl should own at least one colored scarf. My favorite scarf is teal with peacock feathers printed onto it. I also have a purple scarf I wear quite often. If you do not own one casual scarf, I urge you to go buy one. Here are a few options:
Kohls Scarf, $5
Claires Scarf, $12
Some of my favorite places to buy these are:
Kohls: If you can hit a good sale, these are usually pretty cheap.
Claires: I have never bought a cheap scarf at Claires, but they have some oober-cute ones.
Wal-Mart: Though a bit odd, They have some very cheap scarves, and very bright too!
Forever 21 Scarf, $8.80
Claires Scarf, $12
