An up-do always adds a touch of class to any outfit! Don't forget that a black dress is an important piece to your wardrobe because its so flexible. This dress could've easily been worn as a skirt by wearing a buttoned up blazer, or with a blouse cinched up at the waist with a belt!! For this outfit, we decided to do something simple yet elegant.. Can you tell she LOVED IT!!! - KarenMaria

This outfit styled by yours truly is simple, with an air of sophistication! I love the gold accents in the zipper of this (Forever21 jacket) as well as in the tip of these pumps from (Justfab)..LOVE!!! The idea here was to put together something simple and comfortable without forgetting to add a statement or two!! How would you style a pair of pumps like these?? Have a wonderful evening- KarenMaria

Really great buys!! The vest is by Western ethics, and retails for over $70 . I purchased this with tags and all for less than 5 dollars. The skirt was a gift from an aunt,also brand new with tags for less tan $10 at ross. The bracelet was actually something i found lol and loved because it was a neutral earthy touch to any outfit.#Her worth is far beyond rubies.

The denim skirt by karenna12 featuring gold jewelry

I love denim skirts! These are a few simple ways to work this piece! A white button down skirt is a closet must have,along with beige flats and of course dark wash denim! To take this skirt from casual to dressy wear a white button down blouse, a pair of simple yet genuine classy heals like these and finish the look up with simple gold studs and an elegant high bun! Doesnt take much to complete this look and everything you see here can be found pretty much anywhere!! <3

New on the Plato's Closet Style Blog

Stylish and Modern Boho

Posted by Plato's Closet Escondido, CA • June, 22, 2012

Lea MicheleActress - Los Angeles
MarleneBuyer and Student - Escondido, CA

Lea Michele always has her finger on the pulse of what's right now. We like that she can do a boho look without being cliche. This look is stylish and modern. Marlene found this look at Plato's Closet with a Lauren Conrad top ($10), and heritage 1981 skirt ($8), and braided leather belt ($8), platform heals by paprika ($12) and a crossbody bag ($10)

I
love
Platos Closet. Do you guys understand my feelings for this store?? If you
haven't been then you're missing out!Walk in with 50 bucks and easily walk out
with two outfits that are trendy,clean,and at a price you can't help but to smile
upon....:) Most of my hauls will be on Platos Closet. Believe i will show you how
to put the cutest things together on a serious budget. I'm a wife, a student and i
also work! I know that sometimes money for secondary needs isn't available. I
really want young girls,wives and students to know that thrifting can be fun and
that a-lot of money is not needed to look lovely, -- KarenMaria

1.Try on before you buy!

(Sometimes sizes can fool you, and you might actually be surprised with what looks good or bad on you.No need to throw away money just because something is cheap.)

2. Bring someone along with you.

(Its fun to share your great finds with someone else. My go to person is my sister.)

3. Check the items before you buy!

(Some places like Platos Closet has a no return policy on accessories and shoes.) So before you pay look through to avoid any surprises once you're home.)

4. Don't just stick to one store.

( We can get very comfortable with the same store but broaden your horizons a little and expand your chances of finding other great pieces.

5. Lastly! Have fun

Summer Embrace

2012-07-17T07:22:00.004-07:00

Such a hot day in Orlando,Fl , but despite the heat and fear that my hair might frizz up, i feel even more BEAUTIFUL.

My coral colored blazer ,lovely floral skirt and my Steve Madden Blush pink sandals all work together to make this outfit so sweet. My hair is pulled back for a more Classy Feminine look (can you see my baby hairs in the front lol)....

What i wore:

..The blazer is from Sirens 10$ , Shoes are from Marshalls for either 15$ or 20$ can't really remember :/ and lastly the skirt is actually a dress i turned into a skirt from Ross which cost me no more than 10$. Simple yet feminine and PRETTY.

Who said its just for spring?? Especially with colors like these you can take this feminine print into summer too!

There is nothing like...

2012-07-03T11:22:00.003-07:00

...Being happy with yourself. No matter how many times someone may say your ugly, too fat too skinny WHATEVER ! There is such a beauty in self-esteem. By no means are you being selfish , before you can truly embrace anyone's love you need to love ALL of you first!I mean it !!Your skinny calf's, big feet , Fish eyes, big ears, small breasts, big breasts .Love it all! .... Take yourself out sometime , get beautified. If anyone asks ''Well what is the occasion???'' Tell them '' you don't need one!! '' Don't wait on anyone else to celebrate you! Start it first then let them join the party :)

Wearing a plain white tunic from (Marshalls), perfect light fabric for summer and ( Armani Exchange) sandals .
