I know the white t-shirt seems like a real basic and easy to achieve style, but there are so many fun ways to dress it up without it being a plain outfit. Now, we all know that a plain white t-shirt is an obvious wardrobe essential, but often times we think of it as the thing to throw on when we are not feeling like dressing up. But I want to share an easy way to dress up that casual t-shirt. My go-to dress up a white t-shirt style is…

The 2019 Illinois Daughters of the American Revolution State Conference

A Classic Neutral Look
Now that Labor Day is officially over, what should we wear instead of white? I have the perfect alternative! Grey, camel, or black are all fantastic neutrals that can replace the white you may normally wear. One really easy and simple way to pull off a neutral look is to throw on a grey t-shirt, some shorts or jeans, and black shoes.

It just felt like the perfect way to complement the…

Red, White, & Fabulous!
Similar to my look: Top Shorts This year has absolutely flown by! I can’t believe it was the fourth of July! (Yes, I did mean to rhyme) I decided to sport a tank this year with a pink/red tint to it and a unstructured peplum bottom. Coupled with cutoff, denim shorts and I was ready to roll! It was a rather hot fourth of July this year here in the Midwest, so the sleeveless look kept me as cool as a cucumber. This look works for way more than just the fourth of July, though. It would be a stunning ensemble to a picnic, family outing,…

I decided it would be the perfect time to take the old Schwinn Bicycle out for a ride. So what do you wear on a beautiful June day when bicycling? It was time for me to breakout the summer’s biggest style trend: overalls. It seems like a classic piece like overalls never truly goes out of style. Celebrities allover Hollywood have been spotted wearing overalls, all the way from Taylor Swift to Chris Pine (yes, men can rock them too!). Even…
