Not-So-Casual Outfit Look ... Guest Post by Kristy of Salty Mess

Morning ladies! My name is Kristy and I am the creator and content writer of the blog Salty Mess. I am very honored to be taking over Daniela's blog for the day to share with you some easy tips on making your casual outfit look not-so-casual! I think everyone can agree that there is a universal feeling to want to look cute and feel comfortable simultaneously. Well, I have found that if you follow a few simple tips, then you can achieve this with any laid back outfit.

1. Make your outfit POP: Try doing this by simply adding a striking color to your outfit or some chunky jewelry. This will make your casual look stand out. Never is a t-shirt and jeans look boring with this technique.

2. Makeup: Your makeup can do wonders with any outfit. Because whatever you do with your face can change the whole look, try to have your make up look a little more clean and chic and this can definitely make it seem like it took you twice as long to get ready. 

3. Layering: This technique is fun! If you have a hard time figuring out what extra things you can add to your outfit and not make it look too messy, just follow your color pattern and chances are you will just do fine! Grab a bag, jacket, beanie, something to tie around your waist, have socks coming out of your shoes, etc. The possibilities are endless.

I hope you have read these techniques and now try something new out! Feel free to follow me and tag me in some of your new attempts. I would love to see :) Thanks for reading!
