How to dress for the weekend:
1.Wear basics- nicely fitting khakis, jeans, cute cotton sweaters, stylish T-shirts, casual jackets.
Avoid black! Pastels are much better (dusty rose, sand, and khaki).
2.Stylish bag, belt or shoe can transform a simple shirt-and-jeans uniform.
Avoid shiny, polished or patent leather (wear matte leather or suede, straw and canvas and silver hardware not shiny gold).
3.Dump the pumps in favor of smart flats, ballerinas and cool sneakers.
4.Add texture and luxury with a chic Boho neck scarf.
5.Wear creative artsy-craftsy jewelry.
