Happy Friday! With summer here, a lot of us want to wear something more casual and easy to throw on, but sometimes you need something a little more dressed up if you’re headed on a date, or to dinner! We are sharing our tips for how to dress up your favorite outfits in a few easy steps and tips.

Add a pair of wedge sandals

A super easy to dress up any outfit, especially a cute dress, is to add a pair of neutral wedges! This pair is one of our current favorites because you can wear these ALL day long without your feet hurting. They also come in black and a few other colors.

Something neutral is always a good idea because you know you will get a lot of use out of them. We seriously wear this pair with so many things! For sizing, we have a size 6.5 in these.

Pair with some statement earrings

One way to add an easy and fun pop to any outfit is to add a statement earring, or some kind of earring. The fun thing about earrings is that you can wear something more simple, or something more dressed up, depending on what look you’re going for!

One of our favorites are some kind of neutral, gold-ish hoop earrings like this one.

Wear a cute bag

This seems obvious, but a good bag can really make or break and outfit! For summer, a cute straw bag like this one is always a good idea! Round bags are so in right now, and this one actually does hold a lot in it. It also comes in a gold color. This bag also has a longer strap that you can wear crossbody, or on your shoulder.

Grab a hat

We are major hat fans! If you are like us, we don’t wash our hair often, so we rely on cut hats to keep our hair looking presentable. A fedora hat, like this one, is a great option and can be worn with cute dresses like this, or dressed down to the beach or pool. We also love that this one is smaller, so it is not overpowering.
