Here at CF, we love to get the most bang for our buck while staying stylish. One of the best ways to accomplish this challenging task is to realize the incredible power of accessories. Accessories have this amazing ability to completely transform an outfit; throw on a bangle, clasp on a necklace, or grab a different bag and you’ve got a whole new look!

This week, we’ll be taking a simple sundress (we’ve all got one!) and shaping it into three completely different outfits, using just accessories (okay, and one cardigan). With warm weather just around the corner, girls around the country will be breaking out their favorite leg-baring dresses and skirts. Make sure you can get the most wear out of your favorite summer staple by mastering the art of accessorizing!

Look #1: Music Festival Friendly

Product Information: Dress, Fedora, Sunglasses, Sandals, Earrings, Bangles, Clock Necklace, Feather Pendant Necklace

One of my favorite things about summer is the crazy abundance of music festivals and outdoor concerts. Whether you’re hitting up Summerfest, Bonnaroo, or Lollapalooza, there’s definitely a genre of music and a scene for you.

Be festival-ready by accessorizing with boho chic accessories and a trendy fedora. Pile on your favorite long necklaces (the more the better!) and stack bangles and bracelets on your arms. Sandals that strap in the back will be sure to stay on your feet – and the fringe is adorable. While a pink sundress on its own might be precious and girly, by adding these hippie-inspired accessories, you’ve got a completely new, edgy, and summer-friendly style. Now go find a concert!

Look #2: Special Occasion Pretty

Product Information: Necklace, Bracelet, Belt, Wedges, Cardigan, Bag

As the end of the school year winds down and summer begins, you might find yourself with a schedule full of special events. I know that this time of year for me means awards banquets, graduation ceremonies, family brunches, and grad parties. Don’t stress! Thanks to that amazing power of accessories, all you’ve got to do is throw on the same sundress that you rocked out to before.
