Before these jeans, I would have never thought to try coloured pants, it just seemed crazy and I had no ideas as to how to pull it off. I did a bit of research and found a few great tips on wearing your coloured jeans the best way you can!

1. Colour Block It!

Much like my outfit, add another bright coloured top to contrast it! The first outfit works well because it stays in the blue colour region and is accessorized with blue pieces also. The second outfit works well because the blocking is done with a cream coloured top and cranberry jeans. Both the pieces compliment each other. as they are both warm and yummy colours.

    

2. Add a Pattern

Adding coloured jeans to a pattern brightens the outfit up and makes the pattern really 'pop!'. The first outfit works well because the top's pattern has a more neutral colour and does not compete with the intense colour of the jeans. The second outfit works beautifully, as the jeans pick out a colour in the patterned shirt, tying the two together.

 

3. Add a Texture 

Adding another element pulls the outfit together and creates a new element of fun. The first outfit's textured flowers adds a fun and girlie feel to the jeans, making it a perfect match. The second outfit's feathers, thick belt and bracelet, unlike the first outfit, gives it a rough edge to the overall look, adding to the intense red jeans.

Hope you have benefited from these tips! I have to say my favourite tip is a tie between 'Add a Texture' a and 'Add a Pattern'! You got a tip to add? Comment your favourite outfit below!

Back to the 80s

 

I got this shirt for only $12 at Giant Tiger can you believe it? I'm so excited to wear these pieces separate you have no idea. I bought it cheaply for my Drama class as we are doing a play based in the 80s and this shirt was deemed good enough to fit in the era. I love the sheer polka dots and the teal colour (yes I did get the colour on purpose but not just for my name but the colour is perfect!) and I matched it with brown stretch jeans and some canvas shoes I grabbed at Walmart a while ago.

Total Price of Outfit:

Sheer Top and Tank (GT): $12

Brown pants (Bluenotes): $15 (on sale at the time from $30)

Black Canvas shoes (Walmart): $10 (regular price also comes in white)

I think matching sheer tops to bright coloured bottoms to really bring out the playfulness of the outfit instead of simply accenting the sheer shirt. I wore basic shoes to really give it a comfy and laid back feel.

Hope you enjoyed! Comment what you think the best steal of the three were I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Flash-mob

               

 

I found my white tank top and the first thing I think to pair it with is my favourite floral sheer T-shirt! And as a bonus, its puplum..yes a dream made in fashion heaven. Any-who I thought it would be perfect for spring with the purple pastel colour! I paired it with my black and white polka dotted forever21 pencil skirt to add a nice pattern to the look which I just loved. I wore yet another floral print on my shoes but with bright colours to tie it in with the shirt. 

Here are some other ways to style a sheer top..

1. Pair it with coloured pants and a white tank under it to accent the sheerness

2.  Pair it with a bandeau for a cool night; I like matching it best with short shorts! 

3. Lastly, pair a tight coloured tank top with a sheer tie front shirt for a chic look!

Hope these ideas have inspired you as they have inspired many outfits of mine! Keep the fashion wheel turning! Comment for your favourite sheer shirt pairing :)

Asteroid Belt

                     

This is my new favourite belt ever. I got it from my younger sister as she outsizes me. Usually clothing goes down the line of siblings not up! It fits oh so perfectly, and finishes off any outfit amazingly I just had to take it. What more could you ask of a belt? Its Astronomically Amazing!

Check these ones out for your own! :)

Mint is the big Spring hint

Finally the sun is out and tan season has begun! I picked this dress up at Walmart for $10! This dress is definitely going to be my dress of the summer! For the cover up, I've worn it quite a few times but probably the first time this year. The shoes are SPRING that I bought a few years ago and still love to bits. The necklace was my Nana's which she gave to me a year ago. 

Other mint dresses!
