How to Change Your Look From Basic to Baddie

I spend a lot of my time off running errands.  Either I am going grocery shopping, or dropping the kids at school, or taking them to soccer practice or gymnastics or karate… the list is endless.  When planning time to meet up with friends or having lunch dates with hubby, it is almost always right after completing a list of errands for the day.  In order to be able to quickly switch from checking off my to-do list to having fun with the girls, I use two essential items to make changing my look from basic to baddie easy and effortless.

A Bold Lip

A bold lip is the easiest way to make any basic look pop.  Whenever I wear a simple outfit, I love to add spice to it by wearing a bright lip color. My go-to lipstick color to make sure my outfit stands out is a deep bold red color.  I love using the Milani Matte Confident Color Statement Matte Lipstick.

Statement Bag 

When meeting with girlfriends or meeting my hubby for a lunch date, my go to bag is a small sized statement bag.  It’s easy to grab and small enough to keep in my large tote bag that I use when running errands, yet big enough to carry the essential items (wallet, phone, lipstick). I use to hate tiny bags but who knew small cross body bags could add so much to an outfit!
