How to add glam to your casual look. My life is 99% casual, and there’s rarely a need to even add lipstick unless I feel like it. But don’t you enjoy getting a shot of glam into your everyday looks? Me too.
Welcome to Visible Monday. If you want to participate, it’s so easy: just go to the bottom of this post for the how-to. Link back to Not Dead Yet Style if you like – we’re on Easy Does It “rules” now!
The chambray wrap top (similar) is by Loft via Poshmark. I adore this color, it’s just like the sky on a clear, cool day. Even though it’s a casual piece, I love the way it fits and flatters. Style tip: use a wrap shirt or dress to create a waist, if that’s a look you like.
The deep emerald eyelet lace skirt (similar) is also from Loft (retail!). It’s a perfect year-round piece in Florida, as it looks sweet in the winter with an ivory pullover and boots (what are boots??). Lace also adds glam to any look, even if it’s just a hem or cuff.
Are you mixing your casual and glam pieces? Show us in the link-up!

Please let me know if you’re looking for a author for
your blog. You have some really great articles and I believe I would be a good asset.
If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d love to write
some material for your blog in exchange for a link back
to mine. Please blast me an email if interested.

I’m amazed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and amusing, and without
a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something
not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about.
I am very happy that I came across this in my hunt for something relating
to this.
I saw your publications earlier, but this one I believe the best.
What a gorgeous skirt Patti – it’s so feminine! I love the tip about cinching in the top to create a waist, very clever. Have a super weekend x

Stunner bracelet!! Love the skirt!! Chambray is low-key one of my fav colors to wear.
Thanks Becky! Great to see you, and the Sly Grog looks like a totally cool spot, xox.
Blue is your color, Patti. Lovely how you mixed your jewels with it too. And lace! mmmmm. By the way, how did you guys do with the storm? I guess well enough since you’re still here!!! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah for sure – the storm skirted our coast. Devastated the beautiful Abaco islands though.
Thanks for coming by, and for your nice compliments. Stay groovy, xox.

Thank you Marlene! I enjoyed reading about luxury beauty items, and agree that they are a worthy treat. xox
Patti, it is fun to add a little glam to an outfit. You are so right that red lipstick is automatic glam! Your outfit is darling! Love the chambray with the emerald lace skirt. That lace is total glam!
