A basic white tee is an item that every girl must have in their closet.  It’s a classic!  This tee can be dressed up or down and can be worn with almost anything!  So what exactly are the perfect ways to style a white tee?  Check it out!

• If you need to look a bit more professional, try it with a blazer!  It’s a classic when paired with slacks or skinnies and flats or heels.  There are so many possibilities!


• Throw it on with skinny jeans or a pair of shorts.  Tuck it in or leave it out.


• Nothing looks sleeker than a basic white tee.  Dress it up with jewelry, fun shoes, sun glasses, and more!


• Tuck it in to a maxi or skater skirt!  It’s the perfect way to dress down a rather dressy skirt.  This look is perfect for shopping or hitting downtown.


• Make it grungy with army!  Pair your white tee with an army coat and a beanie.  It’s the ultimate skater look.


• Go crazy with prints!  Add a printed pair of pants or a skirt to liven up your look.  Since the tee is so basic, it’s totally acceptable to grab a crazy print to go with it.

If you don’t have a basic white tee, go get one…NOW!  It’s great to have a v-neck and scoop neck style to change it up every once in a while.  They are usually inexpensive and can be found almost anywhere!  Comment below and tell me how you rocked your basic white tee!

Love you all!

April Buy & Try Highlights

April Buy & Try Highlights
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Chelsea-Crockett-April-Buy-and-Try.jpg

If you all have kept up with my YouTube channel lately, you’ve seen that I have been doing a buy and try series. Each month I buy certain products and then, you guessed it, try them out :)! For the month of April, I decided to take a break from buying and spending, and only review the products I tried out last month. Here are some of my absolute favorites!

• Essie nail polish. I absolutely LOVE this brand of polish. It’s long lasting and doesn’t chip off easily like other brands. My favorite color at the moment is called “Lady Like.” The color payoff is ahhh-mazing.


• TRESemme Anti-Breakage Conditioner. I liked this conditioner a lot, but I only got to experiment with it for a short amount of time. For the time I had it, it worked really well and I definitely recommend it!


• Nature Valley Crunch Granola Bars. Don’t even get me started on these! Five out of Five stars for this product. I’m obsessed!


• Vanilla plus Lavender Candle. This candle, by Patriot Candles, is from Walgreens and its smell is SO relaxing! I love burning it before I go to sleep. It’s not too strong but leaves a sweet smell in the room.    

Make sure you hop over to my YouTube channel and watch the April Buy & Try video for more reviews on other products!  Links to the above products are below!

How to Build Your Wardrobe Part 4: Put it all Together!

How to build your wardrobe part 4: Put it all together!

Now that you’ve filled your closet with pieces that fit great, look great, and are pieces that you love, it’s time to put it all together!

Is there a better feeling than looking in your closet and seeing a bunch of pretty new things you can’t wait to wear? It is amazing!There’s a few things you can do to help take full advantage of your new, fabulous wardrobe.

Step 1: Would You Still Buy It?
Now that you have your new purchases at home and are done shopping, try everything on again. Sometimes a dressing room is not the best place to determine how a piece really looks on you. The lighting may have been bad, you maybe didn’t havethe right underwear on, etc. Are you still excited to wear the piece? Maybe it is not as cute as you thought.This is the time to go through your purchases and make sure you really love them!

 Step 2: Start Styling!

Plan at least one outfit for each new piece. Put together a whole look, from the shoes to the accessories! Make sure to incorporate pieces that you already had into the looks also.

 Step 3: Create a Lookbook

Once you have an outfit all worked out, take a picture of it or write it down. When it’s time to get dressed later on, you won’t struggle to remember what pants, or shirt, or scarf looked best. It’s also a great way to help you get dressed when you’re in a hurry! 

Step 4: Work Those new Clothes! 

I know I know, this is such a tough one ;). You’ve done a ton of work for this wardrobe, now it’s time to go out and show off your new pieces!

I hope that this process has helped you build a wardrobe that makes you feel confident, beautiful, and like a total fashionista! Your clothes should work for you, not the other way around. So, try every day to get dressed in something that puts a smile on your face!

Keep smiling darlings,

XOXO, Chels

How to build your wardrobe part 3: time to go shopping!

You’ve cleaned out your closet, defined your personal style, and now it’s time for my favorite part! SHOPPING! 

When most people go to fill their closet back up, they just buy random pieces that they like. Shopping like that doesn’t build a sturdy wardrobe. Before you head to the store this time, there’s a little more work to be done.

 Step 1: Make A Shopping List

Look through your current clothing and take note of the pieces you’re missing. Which pieces are you always reaching for but never have? Next, move to your style list that we created in part 2. What pieces do you need to add to your wardrobe so you can achieve your desired style? Remember to look for the pieces and styles you saw repeating in your inspiration.

 Step 2: Prioritize Your Purchases

Go through your shopping list and prioritize which pieces will have the most impact in your wardrobe at the current time. Start with the basics, or the pieces you’ll wear most often. Then move on to the pieces you need to start or finish your inspiration looks. These are the pieces that tie everything together. The lowest on the list might be things like accessories or pieces similar to what’s already in your closet. If you’re on a budget, your priority items will be the first things to shop for, and then slowly work down your list as your budget allows.

 Step 3: In-Store vs. Online

Shopping in the store will give you instant gratification. You will be able to add the purchases to your closet right away and will be able to see how they work with the rest of your wardrobe.

Shopping online has benefits as well! When you shop online, you can be in the comfort of your own home! Everyone has their own preference on which way to shop.

 

Don’t be afraid to try a trend or style that may be different from what you’re used to wearing. But remember, if it doesn’t fit great, look great, and feel great, it’s not part of your perfect wardrobe. Also, don’t get frustrated if shopping feels difficult or unsuccessful. Once you start, it will get easier, I promise!

XOXO, Chels

 

PS. Stay tuned for the next article of the series called “Putting It Together”.

How to Build Your Wardrobe Part 2: Finding Your Personal Style!

How to Build Your Wardrobe Part 2: Finding your personal style!

 Style is a way to show people who you are without having to speak, so what do you want your style to say about you? 

Now that you’ve cleaned out your closet, it’s time to fill it back up with fresh, new, fabulous things. This series isn’t just about getting new clothes; it is about having clothes in your closet that you love. This insures you will never have to go through the ‘I have nothing to wear’ monologue again. That’s why Part 2 is all about defining your personal style. When I say defining your style, I mean determining what clothing shapes and pieces work for your body and lifestyle, then going from there.

 Step 1: Evaluate Your Wardrobe

Go through your ‘keep’ pile and pinpoint what works for you. Ideally, most of what’s left in your closet is things you enjoy wearing, things that fit comfortably, and items that look good on you. These will be the starters for your perfect closet.

 Step 2: Assess Your Current Style

Go look at some photos of yourself! What outfits look good on you and what specific piece of the outfit was most flattering. If you do not have a lot of photos to look at, ask a close friend who will tell you the truth and get their honest opinion on what they think you look best in. Sometimes the opinion of a friend is all you need!

 Step 3: Look for Inspiration

This is the most fun part of the process! This is the time to go through all of those “style” boards on Pinterest to good use! Go through magazines, check out websites, use any resource you can find. Even if the whole outfit isn’t for you, if there is a part of it that you like, save it!

 Step 4: Start a Style List

Now it’s time to combine your current personal style with your inspiration images. Look at them both and determine any common elements. Do you find repeating aspects in these images & your current personal style?

 By identifying what type of clothing or style you’re drawn to, it will be a lot easier to fill your closet with pieces you love! Stay tuned for the next part of the series called “Time to go shopping!”

XOXO, Chels

How to Build your Wardrobe: Part 1!

How to Build your Wardrobe: Part 1!
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Blend2.jpg

Every girl dreams of having the perfect wardrobe, fully stocked with adorable clothes for every occasion. Am I right? Today I am going to give youi some tips on how to build the wardrobe of your dreams!

Step 1: Clean Up! 

 *Clean up your room. Going through your closet in an already messy room will just create a big, exasperating, overwhelming disaster. Clean up your room and make space to lay out your clothes. 

*Clean up yourself. Do your hair and make up! When you try on clothes, anything you try on will look better if you’re looking good too!

 Step 2: Get To Work!

*Pick out a basic top & bottom, like jeans and a white tee, to try on with your pieces. If you’re trying on a top, wear the jeans and vice versa with the white tee.   

* Go through one category at a time. I recommend you do all tops at once, all skirts, and so on. It’s easier to determine if you have duplicates or similar pieces. This also helps you from getting overwhelmed!

 *Start with the clothes you don’t need to try on. These may be closet staples like black & white tanks/tees, uniforms, that sort of thing. Put them in the STAY pile. Things that are stained, ripped, damaged, move them to the GO pile.

 Step 3: Go Through Your Piles!

*If you ended up with a lot of items in your stay pile, try and re-evaluate. Be realistic! You’re trying to build a wardrobe you love!

 *Divide your GO pile into pieces that need to be thrown away, donated, and sold.

 Don’t be overwhelmed with cleaning out your closet! Try doing just one or two categories of clothes in a day rather than everything in one sitting. Once you get the hang of cleaning things out, it will become easier to part with pieces. I know I sometimes have a hard time getting rid of clothing because I think “You never know, someday I might need this!” but when the going gets tough, just remember, you’re working towards building a wardrobe you love with clothes you’ll be excited to wear every day! You can do it, ladies!

XOXO,

Chels

Spring maxi skirts

I love maxi skirts! Even better? You can rock ‘em in the spring! There are quite a few different ways that you can style them, and here are a few examples:

1. Tank and leather jacket: If it is still a little chilly, this outfit is the best. Pair a white tank with your favorite bold colored maxi skirt and a leather jacket. The jacket will keep you warm, while the skirt and tank will keep you cool.
2. Denim shirt: I love this look. Grab a light colored maxi, like coral or light purple, and pair it with a denim button up. Perfect combo of cute and casual!
3. Loose white tee: if you are out and about running errands, you can toss on a loose white v-neck and your breezy maxi skirt and off you go!

I am so excited to break out my maxi skirts this spring. Are you?

XOXO, Chels
