12 Days of Fashion From 6 Easy Pieces

My latest challenge was to create 12 different looks using only 6 pieces. I tried to imagine someone that might be traveling and trying to keep their luggage light. You will see that accessories were key in creating these different looks. I also tried to keep accessories to a minimum keeping in mind the weight of ones suitcase. I have to say that the red flats are something that could be left behind but they could create a little interest with many of these looks. Watch my video below for an explanation of these 6 pieces that I used to create 12 days of fashion.

Below you will find all of the accessories that I used in order to pull together the following 12 looks from the 6 pieces. As you can see, accessories are KEY. The other KEY element to creating great looks is the styling. For instance, how a simple thing like, popping up a collar and rolling up the sleeves on a jacket or blouse can really create fabulous STYLE.
