Article: Some colors and prints look better depending on what time of the year it is. For example, bright, tropical prints look better in the summertime when the sun is bright. Dark, neutral colors look better in the wintertime because they give off an air of coziness. Here are some outfit ideas to get you started: In the springtime, consider wearing more florals and pastels. For example, you could pair a pastel, floral-print blouse with a pink ruffled skirt. Add some girlish flats, a little clutch, and you are good to go. In the summertime, you can get away with more whites, bright colors, and bold patterns. Now's the time to bring out those linen maxi gowns, wide-brimmed hats, statement jewelry, and over-sized glasses. Wedges and heeled sandals are prefect for those warm, sunny days. Start wearing more neutral colors in the fall. Depending on how cold it is, you can also start wearing some knits and flannels. For example, on a chilly day, you could pair a long, chunky sweater with a pair of solid-colored leggings and some ridding boots. Wear darker colors in the winter, and less white. If you like to wear light colors, consider wearing something ivory or cream. Trench coats and heeled boots are always great, fashionable options for the winter. In general, you want to keep your outfit simple. This does not mean that you should skip out on all the accessories, however. The fabrics and colors you choose can make a huge difference in how dressy or casual your outfit looks. Here are some things to keep in mind: Keep your makeup simple in the daytime. Use light or neutral colors, such as pastels or earth tones. Keep the fabrics simple. Leave the sequins, glitter, and silk for the evening, and focus on jersey, knits, flannels, cotton, linen, denim, and so forth. Wear lighter colors when in doubt. If you can't decide between two dresses, go for the lighter one; it will look more casual than the black or bright red one. Don't pile on too much jewelryunless you are going for a boho look. When you do wear jewelry, leave your expensive, ornate pieces at home. They will look too dressy with a casual outfit. Fancier clothes are great for evening events. This is the time when you want to pull out all the stops. Some good ideas to use for evening outfits: Dresses or skirts are easy to dress up with some flashy jewelry and heeled shoes. Heavier makeup looks great in the lower light of evening and night. Darker colors such as navy, black, and dark red look more formal than light colors. Sequins or satiny fabric are good choices for evening outings. There are a ton of different styles that are appropriate for school. Choose something that flatters you, but that you also feel comfortable in. You will be spending most of the day in this outfit, after all. Here are some things to keep in mind: Heels and wedges can get painful to walk in after a while. They can also make running to class more difficult. Consider wearing shorter heels or flat-bottomed shoes, such as ballet flats, canvas sneakers, or boots. Wear layers. Some classrooms get chilly while others get hot. Consider wearing a cardigan or flannel blouse over your shirt that you can easily take on/off. Tone down the accessories. They can get in the way while you are taking notes or carrying your backpack around. If you do choose to wear jewelry, make sure that it does not get in the way. A statement necklace can work well, but make sure that it won't get tangled with your backpack strap. Consider styling your hair instead of leaving it down. Braids, ponytails, and updos will keep it out of the way while you study. Consider getting a shoulder bag instead of a backpack. They are often large enough to keep a few books in, and can look a like cuter than an ordinary backpack. Work isn't the place to make a fashion statement, but that does not mean that you can't wear a cute outfit. Depending on where you work, there may be some dress codes or expectations. Business casual is appropriate for most places of work. Here are some things to keep in mind: Keep your shirts modest. Fitted tees are fine, so long as they don't show too much cleavage or expose your midriff. Blouses and button-up shirts are great for work. Leave the tight pants, skinny jeans, and shorter skirts at home. Consider some dress pants or boot-cut jeans instead. Wear muted colors and less patterns. Bright colors and flashy patterns might look too casual for work.

What is a summary?
Dress for the season. Tone things down for daytime or casual wear. Glam it up for the evening. Pick out a cute outfit for school. Wear an appropriate, but cute, outfit to work.
