DIVA NISHA: Let’s talk basics! Every woman needs a few specific basics in her closet to really maximize her wardrobe. I LOVE the maxi skirt I got from SexyModest because I can dress it up or down with many different tops. Choose a maxi skirt in a fairly neutral color to totally optimize it. With my navy and cream stripes, I’ve dressed it down with a white basic and neon orange jacket, dressed it up with the shirt pictured and also with a white basic and mint cardigan. I feel comfortable grocery shopping, attending church, and playing with my kids at the park in this!

Other basics you can’t live without include SexyModest’s half tee. I have a black one I’ve worn with so many different dresses and tops! Also, SexyModest has a unique basic cap sleeve shirt unlike any other - the material is AMAZING! It fits over my 7 months pregnant belly and goes right back to it’s original shape when I take it off. For me, it’s timeless no matter what size I am. Lastly, I have to mention SexyModest’s Scrunchy Skirt. This one size fits all skirt seriously flatters every body type! When we were all trying it on, it made me think of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants jeans. You could share it with all your girlfriends! Better yet - each of you get a different color and swap periodically.
DIVA TARA: Every outfit you wear should include what we like to call, the “Eye-Catcher”. This is the piece that the eye is drawn to when others check out your fab outfit. It makes a statement, and I like to make sure mine are bold statements! In the image above, I am sporting a color-blocking top. I swear this dah-ling SexyModest piece spoke to me from the rack!! Obviously, it spoke to a lotta women out there because they quickly sold out BUT, I was able to find a bunch of other cute “Eye-Catchers” they still had in stock. One of my favorites was the starlet tee! Even though it’s paired with a super cute skirt in the picture, my eye went straight to that cute star, & when I saw the words, “P.S. I Love You” written on it... I knew I had to have it! This shirt can be dressed up with a skirt or dressed down with jeans.
The “Eye-Catcher” doesn’t always have to be your top, it can be as simple as adding an interesting scarf to the mix, like the Leopard Print Scarf above. I even saw that SexyModest was offering these adorable Empress Flower Pants. I am not sure if I am quite ready to sport those on my ole legs, but I DID see quite a few similar looks at a recent blogging conference I went to and the fashion bloggers who made the leap looked darling. It's hip right now, ladies! If you are looking for a few more “Eye-Catch-y” pieces to add to your wardrobe, I found this Floral Overlace Blouse, this Spring Chevron Maxi, and this cute striped long tank {LOVE this outfit!}. Feel free to browse through their “Tops” section to find even MORE “Eye-Catcher” pieces!! Your wardrobe will thank you!
DIVA WENDY: THEE Completer Piece! Another IMPORTANT part to your outfit!
As stated above, you need to have a basic, we all have basics. The interest piece is what makes us stand out and gives us some sass! The completer piece ladies…COMPLETES your already dahling outfit. It will be your “WOW” factor! This can be a jacket, a cardigan, or even a belt. Occasionally it can be your shoes or jewelry, but is most commonly found below the neck and above your knees!
Pictured above is myself with SexyModest’ Nautical Jacket and their adorable Spring Colored Jeans in orange! Completing my outfit for a night out on the town look or even a casual shopping day with the kids, both looks are made to impress and ARE still stylish and comfy! You can never go wrong with a simple cardigan or blazer to dress yourself up for the night. If you still feel like something is missing, throw on a belt (or two) to complete your total look! Also pictured, we have Tara with a thick colored belt that makes her outfit irresistible and gives her a waste line that is slimming and very appealing to the eye! Nisha finished off her darling maxi skirt with a coral top and mini belt {tied with the cutest knot} this totally takes your focus away from her cute baby bump!
DIVA KARI: Let's not forget the icing!! Your Accessories are going to be the absolute topper to your completed outfit and they are going to pull all of your above pieces together. Pictured above, you will notice my main accessory was a SexyModest coral and white necklace... it's simple, eye catching, and compliments the style and colors of my outfit. The key to accessorizing any outfit is balance. You don't want to go overboard with your accessories or underboard {as the case may be}, so here are the Diva tips to making your accessory skills hit the mark. First, choose your focal point. You'll only choose one focal point (aka: accessory piece) at a time. So if your necklace is the focal point (like mine is in the above picture) all of your other accessories will be smaller and compliment your focal point. Focal points can be anything from a necklace, scarf, large ring, large bracelet, belt, or earrings. Second, make sure that your accessories don't match each other exactly. While my necklace came with matching earrings, I opted for a complimentary pair of gold hoops. Or for another example, instead of pairing a Medieval Owl Necklace with a matching owl earrings, pair it with this Foiled Metal Cuff Bracelet. Third, stick with your theme. If you are going with a Country Charm Scarf, make sure that the rest of your accessories are small and simple. The scarf itself is bold and flowery, yet feminine and sweet. You'll want to balance out the scarf with pieces that will match that feminine theme, but not upstage the scarf itself. Like adding these simple Pearl Stud earrings.
