Petite Fashion Challenge #6

Posted on March 24, 2011 by Elaine
Petite Fashion Challenge #6 is being hosted by the one and only Jess from Stylepint.


The Challenge:“Dress Up Your Basics”
Jeans and a tee is a classic outfit starter. Depending on what you layer over this basic pairing, you can change style and feel of the entire look. This is your chance to show your personality and your creativity.
For this challenge, start off with a jeans and tee basic look (it can be any style or color) and dress it up to show off your personal style with accessories, jewelry, and whatever you’d like to add.

I was actually pretty excited about this one, my basic “uniform” is jeans and some kind of top so I did have a bunch of ideas going in my head, but I wanted to kind of just keep in simple and stick with one “look”.

Here is my basic white T and jeans look:

T-shirt:  H&M XS
Jeans: Gap Jean Leggings 00R – OF COURSE! 😉 (here)
Boots:  Me Too size 7
(As an aside my hair isn’t chopped off, it was behaving badly so it went up in a ponytail – not the best look for me unfortunately!)

There are so many ways to dress of a simple outfit like this – scarves, jewellery, sweaters, jackets etc.  It’s the perfect base to start any outfit on!

I decided to go with jewellery and a blazer.  BUT I thought I would go a little “extra” and throw on some “night time” jewellery and a pretty clutch:

Jewellery:  Avon (2 necklaces layered)
Clutch:  Banana Republic gift from ML of Twenty York Street
To dress it up even further, a blazer always does the trick!

Blazer:  Mexx XS

I wish I had found a pair of earrings to go with this outfit, but I felt the ones I had were either too small or too dangly and were competing with the necklace. 
I think this outfit is good enough for a night out on the town (if I ever had a night out on the town Ha!).
What do you think?

  • Nail extensions that last weeks but don’t damage your natural nails?!?! Check out the process for getting Après-X nail extensions! There aren’t many salons in Toronto that offer this service, but so far, I’m a fan! I love bio-gel, but I have the WEAKEST nails, so after I get the extensions removed, my nails shred and take forever to grow back out. I heard about this soak-off style, and couldn’t wait to check it out for myself! I haven’t gotten them removed yet, but I’ll update you all when I do! ✅ durable like bio-gel ✅ light and thin ✅✅✅
  • In case you haven’t heard (lol), it’s the @sephoracanada sale!

  • The big reveal!!! TL;DR - removal was painless and left my nails in a WAYYYY better state than with dip or bio-gel removal I did still have some trouble with the ends being thin (defs needed to trim the length so they wouldn’t rip ), but the rest of the nail bed was so much more comfortable and healthy-looking than when I’ve had other long-wear manis removed ✅ All in all, I’d say I’m definitely an Après-X convert! Especially as someone who doesn’t want to get a mani every month, this is perfect for special occasions. The nails were really
  • Lip balm that changes color depending on your skin’s pH?! @winky_lux pH Lip Balm goes on clear, then transforms to a perfect color based on your skin’s pH (level of acidity). It’s so fun to see what color the balm becomes! It’s giving major mood ring vibes The formula is silky (not sticky), and the color lasts pretty well! So far, I’m impressed.
