Day to Night Looks

During the summer a lot of us buy new summer clothes and we always want to take advantage of our new summer looks. We want to be able to wear our clothes on different occasions, to be able to take our looks from day to night, from the beach to a night out on the town. Taken looks from day to night can be as easy as adding a blazer or switching jewlery for a fun night time look.
Tunics are a big summer buy. Tunics are easy to wear since they are one piece and easy to dress up or down. They are great to wear to the beach because all you have to do is take off one layer of clothes and its a easy cover up. For day time you can dress your tunic with a floppy straw hat, a straw beach bag, sandals, colorful accessories and a simple necklace. To take this look to night dress it up with some sandal heels, a clutch or a small purse, and dressy jewlery. Below I took Topshop's Vingtage Lace Tunic from day to night.

Shorts of course are the ultimate summer look. Shorts and tanks go together like peanut butter and jelly. But how about switching it up? Adding a crop top to shorts with accessories like sun glasses, flip flops, tote bag, studded earrings, and some bracelets make for the perfect look for doing some day time shopping. How about being daring and taking those shorts to a night time look? Add a sexy (but not to sexy top) with medium height heels, a chain purse, and some elegant jewlery. How about if those shorts are destroyed demin shorts? Belows look shows how you can take Forever21s Destroyed Demin Shorts from day to night.

Another ultimate summer look are summer dresses. This year the sailor look, is in so a lot of stripes and a lot of bright red and navy blue. You can take your stripe red dress from day to night easily. During the day you can have fun with it and play up to the sailor look, you can pair it anchor jewlery, navy accessories, sandals, and red sunglasses. For night, dress it up with a black blazer and some gold and black accessories. Throw on some red shoes and some red lipstick and you are red to go. This look is good for a dinner date, cocktails, or a girls night out. The look below take the Stripe Cross Back Dress by Rare found in Topshop from day to night by adding these little accessories.

Skirts are another summer must have. They are perfect for almost everything. They can be worn out to a picnic during the day then out at night for some fun. Skirts can be pair with tops like tank tops, short sleeves, and tube tops. Tutu skirts a lot of fun and can be done in different ways. You can go for the girly look or for a more funky look. For a night look why not pair a high waisted tutu skirt with a corest top. And why not that corset top be floral print, add some chunky jewlery and heeled clogs. For a simple day time look how about a simple white tank top some classy jewlery like a ring and a watch pair with flat peep toe shoes. I took Topshop's mesh sheet skirt from day to night below.

Changing up your looks from day to night will also help save you money on buying new outfits. Most of these sets individual pieces aren't over $100, so there is no need to break the bank. Stores like Topshop and Forever21 are perfect places to shop for those that are on a budget. Also, try some online places like ASOS.com. Polyver.com is also a great place to shop and create your own looks online.

Summer is a lot about having fun so why not have fun with your looks this summer.
